United StatesI bought this for my grandson for his birthday which is not for several weeks from now. He loves science and I expect he will love exploring the sky. Item came well packed and sooner than I expected with the pandemic I pleased with the service. I am awaiting a telescope for myself and my grandson and I can share some new adventures together across the miles
The telescope is simple to use. Clear images. My family loves it!
Bought this scope to view the moon and hopefully some comets in the near future. Overall great value and the service from OPT was exceptional.
