 Awesome telescope Oct 12, 2008
I got this telescope for my daughter's birthday. This is an awesome telescope, especially for a first telescope. The seller I went through had a great price. The telescope is touchy, but if you can deal with that, it is a great buy.
telescope review Sep 19, 2008
the telescope was just as described and my grandson loves it. it's great for a 10 yr. old beginner and durable enought to pass on to his younger brother.
 Basic telescope Sep 07, 2008
I bought the product to use as a spotting scope for my 8" Meade but it was too big. I used the angle viewer to convert the existing spotting scope on the Meade to an angle view. The Rb-60 provides a nice clear view but the mount is not stable enough for sky gazing. The lenses were better than I expected for this price scope. GREAT scope for the price and limited viewing.

Perfect for any young astronomer! Jul 31, 2008
I purchased this telescope this past December as a Christmas present for my 10 year old sister. She had always wanted a telescope so she could sit on the grass at night, staring at the stars. As she is in no way looking to become an astronomer, and we knew the telescope would be nothing more than a novelty for her, I was searching for something inexpensive, yet sturdy. In the past the telescopes she has received were purchased for around fifty dollars at a toy store, only to be opened up and found not to work and to fall apart within a few days. After doing some research online this telescope seemed to be the best option - as the price and reviews all screamed positive!
I placed my order and received the product within 7 days, on standard shipping. After my sister opened up the package we tested it out, and it worked great. The features on it are limited, but that's perfect for an amateur astronomer. We get a clear view of the skies, and since December it's been taken out at least once a week for some fun entertainment.
We've used the CD that came with it to pull up a map of the skies, and have tried to find some specific objects. While it did take some time, we did find some planets and constellations. We are not space enthusiasts however, and just looking through the eyepiece is enough enjoyment for us.
I'd recommend this product for anyone who just wants to see the stars and moons and planets at night! As long as you aren't looking to...measure star sizes, discover a new planet, or find aliens floating around up there, I can safely say that you won't be disappointed.
