Good for beginner. Missing Barlow lens.
UPDATE : company was able to remedy my missing Barlow lens issue.This telescope is decent for beginners although I think possibly a bit overpriced compared to other brands who share the same specs. However, my kit arrived with a missing Barlow lens inside the actual corpus of it. I contacted the seller and they wanted me to return the entire telescope, however this was a birthday gift and is already fully put together so I will not be taking it apart again.All in all, I would probably recommend going with a different telescope and seller and saving yourself some money.The telescope also has a lot of issues with the knobs that are supposed to keep the scope in place (like the one for up and down AND the one for side to side) . They don’t actually tighten enough for it to not be moved.Also, I cannot seem to get the StarSense app to sync up properly no matter what I do.I will now need to separately order a new Barlow lens to accompany this telescope.
