Look for another telescope
Not all pieces contained (missing tripod part) so impaired viewing especially with young children. Since it's online only Target stores cannot help at all. Extremely dissatisfied and disappointed.

Poor Clarity
Very disappointing. Not easy to use for a 9 year old. Requires lots of help. The clarity is very poor through the telescope.

decent!
Classroom-quality toy. Got it for camping trips and it’s something to do when there’s a full moon out. The photo online looks way cooler than the real piece. Ours is gray for some reason. This could fit in a hiking backpack.
