Title: Great Buy
Product review: I purchased this telescope for my 9 yr old daughter as a Christmas/Birthday present. I had no idea what to get but the reviews of this seemed like a good buy. It came in a huge box with directions for set-up that looked darn right scary! I am not mechanical and the directions are limited - no step by step pictures and some key pieces aren't labeled at all. With that being said I still managed to get it together without incident! It took me at least 1 1/2 hrs - as I said I'm mechanically challenged. I did make 1 call to the help desk - the tripod required installation of a piece that wasn't actually listed at all in the diagram - once I found that it made more sense. The telescope is so NEAT - it looks amazing and the view is spectacular. For the money it can't be beat.
