Entry level
This offers reasonable value and high quality optics. The scope performs to expectations and you can improve performance with small extra cost of some additional accessories.
Much better than others
The optics on this model are fantastic. The mount is excellent and does require a little learning curve. Once you locate objects it is really easy to keep them in view.
Perfect for me
I did some research and found that this model matches what I need and what I can afford. Easy to assemble and am very pleased with the details we can see on objects like the moon.
