Excellent service and great product for my needs (first time user, using for terrestrial and star gazing). The stand is extremely sturdy, and I was able to get the telescope working quite quickly, with amazingly detailed views of the moon's craters on first attempt.
Recently moved to an elevated house in Tauranga.? Wanted to explore the daytime views of the hills, city and coast. Apart from enjoying these views we are also learning to discover the stars and planets in the night sky. Easy to use telescope that has allowed us to enjoy the views we have.
