    I still gave a good feedback but a little disappointed. I wish this would have been shipped in a box because it being shipped only in a bag with with bubble wrap was not good enough and the mailman attempted to squeeze it in my mail holder which did not have room if came in the box would have been much different outcome. But nonetheless good price. Just a little disappointed at the fact that it could have been put in a box. Thank you anyways

    "Hit with local amateur astronomers"

    We purchased this product to be raffled on "Summer Solstice" for a Star Gazing event at our Desert Archeological Museum . Owning many Vivitar products we felt that for the price we would be presenting a participant with the opportunity to take home a quality, and useful entry level telescope. I must say they were a hit, the overall design was pleasing to the eye,with the silver scope body and contrasting black components. Our museums instructor pointed out the construction of all the components were top-notch and constructed in the same manner as much more expensive models. The lens quality allowed us to clearly view the moon , which was Full, some of the planets and larger stars were cool. The eyepiece angle allowed for comfortable viewing. The tripod although functional needed some ...

    Very cheap telescope.

    I ordered this telescope so my daughters and I could view the rings of Saturn. Supposedly, you only need 25x power to see them. The lenses are so poor quality on this telescope, the best you can get is a fuzzy, blurry ball. We could just barely, if you squint and hold your breath, see the barest hint of the shadows on either side of Saturn demarking the separation between the planet and the rings, but nothing definite. Jupiter was even more ludicrous. It looked like a "blurry rainbow ball" according to my 16 year old. What's worse, you can't see the moons on maximum magnification. I have 6x binoculars that can see 5 of Jupiter's moons, but this 120x scope can't pull it off. Super disappointment. Don't waste your money.

  • More of a toy

    Product arrived, and tripod leg latch was busted. ( not sellers fault, as it was factory sealed package--) not worth paying shipping to return Barely any instructions, ( but really are not needed). It is good for a kid, to introduce them. But be prepared to buy another better quality, if they like it. If it makes it to the end of the summer, I will be amazed.

  • Not to bad

    Not a bad little setup works good until about 2 hours into it and the mounting base broke off. Some JB weld and just like new again. I like the view it produces.

  • CHEAP CRAP, WILL PUT IN BOX AND GIVE TO A 5 YEAR OLD, CAN SEE MORE WITH BINOCULIARS.

    HARD TO SPOT SOMETHING, cans see more with bare eyeball, good for a tree 500 feet away that's it.
