Celestron AstroMaster 130 EQ

I was shocked at how much telescope you get for your money! A high quality telescope and far from flimsy! Excellent build quality although the tripod could be just a little sturdier. Other than that.. I am VERY happy with my purchase!

After purchasing it, it did take a while to set up, but nothing at all too hard. The spotter was a bit hard to get used to at first but it is easily alligned in the day time and is then very useful for picking out stars and planets. Soon managed to get views of Jupiters moons and some fantastic views of our own moon. I recommend purchasing a 2x Barlow lense to get better views of Jupiter and some real fine detail of the moon. Overall a great product for the price, easy to use and work with and many nights of fun and amazement!

Very nice telescope, perfect for nature viewing. Also has ability to mount digital camera ant take pictures :)

great scope. astromaster coud put better screws on mounts.

I brought this Celestron AstroMaster 130 EQ telescope.. thinking it would be great, but it wasn't. Complicated to set up, bulky, awkward to use, kids couldn't use it at all. Certainly not simple.

I though it great value for money. Good price, good build quality, delivers good images. There are no bad points, especially for the price.

I like the Celestron AstroMaster 130 EQ Telescope as it is great for both land and sky . Also it is the best price telescope on the market for this size. It is a bargain for both newbies to experts in astronomy or wildlife spotting.
