    Item arrived safely and quickly with good communication from the seller. Plays beautifully and great to see this compelling TV film again, bleakly capturing the early 80s grittiness and all with very relatable characters and very well acted too. Fantastic value. Many Thanks, impressed,

    Great for the money

    Good for the money. As you might expect with a narrow tube and short focal length the mirror is quite curved this leads to the outer edge of the image being a bit distorted compared say to a 110mm mirror with a longer tube. The center of the image is clear with no distortion. I'm pleased with its ease of use and it can be deployed in seconds.

    Beginners telescope at a budget cost but very good for what it does

    It's a beginners scope at a budget cost so your expecatations should be realistic. But, it IS a very good starters telescope, made a renowned company. It doesn't connect to a tripod though and so you will have to have a table or similar for it to sit on

    The best ‘first telescope’

    I read about this as being the best first telescope on a budget, and it certainly is. Solid, well made, certainly doesn’t feel like a ‘toy’, as so many do. Although it says for 13 years and over on box, I bought it for my 8 year old grandson’s birthday as he is mad on the planets, and he absolutely loves it!

    Celestron Reflector Telescope MPN 21024-CGL

    This is great for a first telescope. I use it a lot. If only there was a way to buy additional lenses for greater distance viewing.

    Great portable Newton reflector for the money!

    I was sceptical about this scope but it's actually very good. Great for younger persons and starters into the hobby, but don't underestimate its potential. Very sturdy base and smooth rack and pinion focusing accepting 1.25" eye pieces. The two supplied eyepieces are not bad but I spent £20 on some additional eyepieces (plossy) and the difference is noticeable. Pro's... very sturdy for the size, portable, light, could be placed into a small back pack, two eyepieces supplied, good construction with covers. Easy to operate. Con's... eye pieces need upgrading, spherical primary mirror not parabolic, lack of finder scope or laser target means finding stars especially at 4mm eyepiece magnification is VERY frustrating. Could be improved with a holding facility on the mount to house the two ...
