So far, so good. Telescope arrived on the day stated at the time of purchase. Packaging was in fine shape. The telescope body and mirrors were in perfect condition. All accessories were in the package and also in perfect condition. Preliminary static tests and culmination suggest the optics are in proper working order. I only gave four stars as I am currently in the final stages of constructing a driven equatorial fork mount for this scope. Once the mount is completed and the telescope in use, I will try to post additional information on the functional workings of the telescope optics and further address the star rating.

I am an experienced amateur astronomer. I bought this 8" scope to have a big aperture dob for hosting kid's astronomy nights. I was surprised at the great optics and the high quality of the build. I mounted a green laser on the tube to aim it, instead of the rinky finder scope, and the views it gives the kids is breathtaking. It is light and portable and it fits in a normal back seat (fills it!) so it is quite portable.

I would recommend this telescope to everyone, barring they realize it’s on the larger side. This scope is especially good as a beginner scope.

Best beginner telescope ever!
