Telescope for Kids Beginners,150X Astronomy Monocular Telescopes 300/70mm with Phone Adapter, Camera Wire Shutter, Moon Filter and Backpack- Adjustable Tall Tripod

I bought this for my son and daughter to explore the sky. This telescope is good for beginners. It took some time to install it, but it’s easy to use by following the instructions. They show great interested in it.

It was super easy to assemble and use. My problem was that the tripod's height can't be adjusted. Therefore, you have to stand it on something unless you want to lay on the ground. This made it hard for me to find a focus point. I would recommend for a small child. My 6 yr was sad that I am returning it. I have no use for a family telescope that only a small child can use. Perfect for young children, not so much for older kids and adults. My 5' 6" 14 yo old found it annoying to use. The rubber on the bottom of the legs can easily come off so you'll need to be aware of that. It seems well made and very kid friendly. The telescope is made of aluminum and plastic. The lenses are plastic. It's very lightweight and easy to carry in the bag. It's a great option for a young child to have their own telescope and get them interested. A very beginner telescope. If you are looking for a good family telecsope, I would check out other options. The only reason I'm returning it is because I only need one 1 telescope. You do pay return shipping so be aware of that when considering this.

It works really well, exactly what my 7 year old son needs. Only thing that is a bit of a bummer, is the stand is so small. We have to prop it up on a table to get a good view. And the rotation is also limited, because of the small stand, we can't fully rotate the telescope in to the sky, unless it's on a higher surface.

This product is flimsy and not at all what I had thought & hoped I would receive for my daughter.

Product is awesome, my son loves it!

Magnification is fine; accessory items to enhance magnification do not lock into position fully which doubles the effort to find anything. The tilt lock handle does not maintain line of sight upon “locking.” The “night-vision” accessory is merely a green lens that literally diminishes the gathering of light. Instructions not adequate for beginners- much user information missing

My kids love it however I could not get my newer Iphone connected to it correctly.

My son loves science and astronomy and this telescope is/would be a great beginner telescope... if it came with a larger tripod. I had to buy a tripod separately because I didn't notice that this telescope came with such a small tripod. It is EXTREMELY difficult to use with the included tripod. Other than that, it is a great telescope.
