Customer Reviews

Good telescope for the money 
This is a good telescope for the money. If you have grandchildren or want to look at the stars or any object in space this is a very good telescope for starter. Plastic parts inside the house unit and are easy to break,light weight to handle and it does the job.
Meade Teleschope 
We purchased this telescope to give to our grandsons who live outside the country. On delivery to them we discovered that the switch on the red dot viewfinder was broken. On contacting Meade, they immediately agreed to send us a new part. We are delighted with the quality of the telescope and attribute the broken switch to shipping. With the replacement part, we will be very, very satisfied. A good telescope for the beginning astronomer at a most reasonable price, with a company that stands behind its product.
The best ever 
We had purchased another brand telescope for our 10 yr old grandaughter but had to return it because the quality was horrible. We ordered this one and it is fabulous. The quality of this one is superb and my grandaughter loves it.
