This is a very reasonable beginner telescope, the optics are a good start for major planets, the equatorial mount actually makes tracking objects and fine tuning so much easier than a mount without fine movement controls. The overall package is well put together including a Basic Starry Night software edition (via included serial and download link) to add to the fun. The only item that does not seem usable is the 3x Barlow, though I have yet to view the moon through the telescope; but it would have been better to have included a 2x Barlow that didn't try to push the telescope beyond it's highest useful magnification. Pleasantly surprised by the quality and attention to detail.
