Outstanding scope for the price
Reviewed By: R A Bravo (Albuquerque, NM)
This is a fantastic little scope. Plenty of aperture means lots of light gathering power. The mounting rings, mirror cell, and front tube ring are all cast metal, a nice touch of quality in this telescope. The tripod and EQ mount are sturdy, but the whole rig is relatively easy to break down and transport. My only gripe is with the finderscope, but I'm replacing it with an aftermarket dot finder. You can't miss with this great telescope.

I saw Saturn
Reviewed By: Rodney  (Ingleside, Texas)
This is a good telescope. I do need to get the filters as the moon is incredibly bright when full. Also, I saw Saturn. This leaves me hungry for the Celestron eyepiece kit with more powerful lenses. That is next on my list. Enjoy!

The Celestron Power Seeker
Reviewed By: Gary (Athens, Georgia)
I bought a Celestron Power Seeker 127EQ and being only a second time buyer of a telescope. The first was very cheap. This was my second I have never been so pleased at the amazing power of this telescope for the price. I knew nothing of telescopes at the time if you are like me take that chance! I promise you will not regret it.
