Way too many flaws for me to mention, too small, cheap mount, frustrating to use. It turns one off to astronomy rather than exite the observer.

Avoid at all costs! Get at least a 90 mm objective lens with an equatorial mount with slow motion controls. You will pay 300 bucks for a good starter scope. The rest are junk and will take up space in your closet.
