Children Beginner Astronomical Refracting Telescope 70mm Aperture 400mm Focal Length Travel Telescope with Carrying Bag, Adjustable Tripod

The telescope works and is really recommended for the price. We were a bit skeptical at the beginning but convinced after the first try. All in all, we only had one small point of criticism, the cell phone holder, here it is a bit fiddly to bring the camera of the cell phone with the viewfinder of the holder exactly on top of each other. but for us there is no reason to pull off a star, because fiddling with something works.

Easy to assemble and packs away easy an be kept in a cupboard

I think the telescope is very good and has a very high quality workmanship, also suitable for beginners and experienced users. Quick assembly and handling and, in addition, razor sharp long-range shots with a great design. I personally bought it as a gift and hope that I found the right one: D Well, I can only recommend the telescope, great product! I would buy again.

Verified Purchase In a nutshell: Good price-performance ratio, works flawlessly. And to anticipate it right away: It is our first telescope, so the evaluation does not take place in comparison to other telescopes. Motivation / expectations: We gave the telescope to our 10 year old for his birthday as an introduction to astronomy. It should be able to be operated by him under the guidance of an adult and be suitable for carrying out simple observations of the moon and, if necessary, stars / constellations / star clusters. It works flawlessly, the price-performance ratio seems very good to me. Application: The assembly of the telescope and its accessories as well as the assembly on the included tripod are very simple and have been carried out repeatedly by us. Even after repeated assembly and dismantling of all parts, everything holds together very neatly, the compression fittings for fixing the adjustments still tighten firmly. The entire construction is reasonably stable, but of course sensitive to touch / light bumps. Operating instructions: This point is briefly described separately here. Due to other experiences, I did not have high expectations of the operating instructions. But I was very positively surprised here. The instructions have 5 languages, I am only referring to the German-speaking part. The choice of words, spelling and grammar are mostly good, and all chapters are clearly described. In particular, the assembly instructions go ahead in well-structured steps and are provided with easily recognizable photos. Furthermore, there are important warning notices first steps (e.g. adjustment of the finder scope), instructions for observing the moon and basic knowledge of how telescopes work. This is exactly how operating instructions should look like. Conclusion: The purchase was worth it: In a few days (or nights) we found joy in the telescope and we achieved quick results with the observations. Recommended for beginners.

The telescope is really great and does what it says on the tin. Unpacking and assembling takes about 20 minutes - then you can already try it out. It works very well both during the day as a "telescope" - since the image is not upside down - and at night to gaze at the moon. The image quality when observing the moon is astonishingly good, the image is clear and the moon can be seen in great detail ..... I haven't tried other celestial bodies yet. It's great fun and doesn't disappoint! Good quality at a low price.

Great product. Easy to assemble in the dark after a few practices. Loved the backpack. If anything feels tight when assembling then be gentle and start again.Sturdy when up with brilliant views of stars and planets.Just the thing for starting a new hobby- well done.

A decent telescope for the price. Once you have set it up and got it going then it is really good. Set it up during the day and take your time to get to know it before moving to looking at the moon because it is much more zoomed than you might expect. It is good value and comes with tripod, phone holder and backpack as well as all the bits a beginner will need.

Would have been nice to have a rubber or plastic eye piece to fit on the end of the lens to enable more comfortable viewing

Brilliant for a beginner

This telescope is such a great product. It's much more than just an average astronomical telescope and we are loving it! Still playing around with it though but pretty happy with my purchase.
