" ...  Tripod is pretty well made too.  ...  "

" ...  Id say its a 4.5/5, because there are not enough lenses, but, i guess you cannot do better at that price range, and for the price of 115$ (i paid double because of customs and shipping) its a very good purchase. ... I got the astromaster lens kit (15mm kellner and 6mm plossl) and it somwhat helped, see my review here: Celestron AstroMaster Telescope Accessory Kit. ... I find it necessary to get a larger eyepiece, something in 25-32 range for deep space objects.  ...  "

" ...  This is my telescope and I am new to astronomy, that being said I love this telescope. ... It's came with a 3x barlow, 4mm and 20mm eye piece and is sufficient for just starting out, the tripod won't let you do any star gazing during hurricanes or tornados but does its job well and if you want you can weight a down with a bag. ... Even though the eye pieces are great and work well and it is important to have a good quality scope and mirror, to make this scope really shine you need good eye pieces.  ...  "
