Good value and looks great

I am an absolute beginner and so, after some research, came across this telescope last year. Unfortunately, it was out if stick everywhere but then I found this one. I haven't been disappointed with the wait so far. It was fairly simple to put together, looks great, feels solid and has been easy to calibrate. It magnifies well when used in the day so I'm just waiting for my first clear night sky now!Read full review...

Great Telescope but maintenance difficult.

Lovely clear images of the lunar surface. Great to see the Orion Nebula in more detail too.
The Star sense app is really good, makes finding target objects much easier.
Its a little fiddly to align initially and I found that the mirrors needed collimating as images like Mars were very blurry and mishapen.
I had expected Collimation to have been done on what is meant to be a brand new telescope.
Its very hard to Collimate properly as the adjusters are either far too tight to turn by hand or are far too loose and appear not to have any effect on the alignment of the lenses.
This process is required quite regularly on Reflector Telescopes, I know, but a manual or some kind of guidance would have been beneficial.
