A good starter scope

bigdaddytbone from San Antonio, TX, Feb 27, 2009

Bought this scope as a starter unit for my son and I to stargaze at night. Easy to set up, took about 10 minutes right out of the box. Directions on how to set up and align the star finder scope was easy. The CD with the constellations and cooridnate maps was nice too. I look forward to using this more as the nights become warmer and my son is out of school and can stay up later. I would recommend this scope as a way to get started one step beyong just using the naked eye or even binoculars. Well worth the price.

Waste of Money!

My son was so disappointed by this telescope. The quality and performance of this scope is substandard.

Galileo Reflector Telescope

mom2karatekids Feb 12, 2008

I purchased this for my 11 year old son - easy to assemble, great product for reasonable price, easy to use. Was a bit confused about why images were upside down, then to be told that I should have learned in Elementary school that images through a telescope do appear that way unless an adapter is purchased. So, great for looking into the night skies, but can't look across fields at objects during daylight hours or everything is upside down!

And the kids like it too!

jamesnjared from Knoxville,TN, Jan 19, 2008

I bought this telescope for my 7 year old son. He was very happy with it and could not wait to use it. Though it is a reflecting telescope and not a refracting,(can't see as much detail) it has provided he AND I with hours of enjoyment. On a clear night, you can see ALL of the stars. I would recommend this telescope to anyone out there who is just discovering astronomy.

I bought this for my 9 year old son as a gift for Christmas. He loves it. We are very happy with our choice in telescopes.
