Well worth a "look"...(yes! pun intended! Lol)
Great telescope for the money, whether purchased new full price, or used but great condition. Once you see your first planet, there's no going back...A**********

Good for the price.
A good basic scope that needed a little tweaking with a new Celestron 8mm-25mm lens, a Telrad finder and a Skywatcher R.A. Economy Motor Drive. Now a clear night to use the thing would be handy.

Just the job
Got this as my first starter telescope and really looking forward to using it on clear nights. Very easy to set up. Would recommend to anyone.

Stargazing heaven!
A brilliant product, very good quality and easy to use, in the first week we have had amazing views of the Moon, Jupiter and Saturn.

Beware of spherically figured telescopes.
Although these long focal ratio scopes give passable results they are nothing like as pin sharp as a parabolic telescope would be. Even long focus spherical telescopes give slightly blurry image quality and should be avoided. As a telescope dealler I would never stock spherical telescopes! SkyWatcher do excellent telescopes with parabolic mirrors. The 130P and 150P models are far superior to the 130x 900 and any of the 114mm versions.
Do yourself a favour and get a parabolic Newtonian. Read full review...

Love this item
I brought this for my partner for his birthday and it didn't disappoint.
The set up was easier than I thought it would be and we have had some amazing results. Can't wait to see what else it can do when we get to further grips with it.Read full review...
