light weight for portability

Clarity is excellent, perfect vision for tall and under 1.5m people, but still trying to calibrate and find the red dot after a week of cloudy weather.

Pros
  • Regular price
Cons
  • Appearance

The tripod is very wobbly, the mirror is not level

I had high hopes for this telescope. Nice update for my old Jason scope. Too bad the mirror is misaligned so even the moon looks double and blurry. Also, the tripod doesn't keep the scope steady, even if you look at it wrong you'll lose the aim. Forget high magnification lenses. Traffic signs unreadable from 2 blocks away, too blurry. Send back.

Pros
  • Worth the money
Cons
  • Obsolete model

The telescope is broken!

As you can see in the picture, two screws are loose, and probably the nuts in the telescopic tube are loose now! Terrible considering how thin the telescope tube is! The bolts must attach the treble rod to the telescopic tube, so the whole device is now useless. The tube of the new telescope is dented as can be seen in the photos. This telescope cost me double its price due to taxes and shipping. It is really annoying that after unpacking such a capital defect is found.

Pros
  • Fits many people
Cons
  • There are disadvantages

DO NOT BUY THIS ITEM AND ESPECIALLY FROM THIS SELLER

The pointer only worked half the time. The images were blurry. As I researched what to do to get the most out of the scope, it turned out that I needed to spend a few hundred dollars more to get some better lenses and filters. I bought a moon filter and it helped a little but not enough. They sent me the scope from California but wanted me to ship it back to New York. EXPENSIVE I AM EXTREMELY DISSATISFIED WITH THIS SELLER AND MY EXPERIENCE. THE CHEAPEST WAY I COULD FIND WAS $83.

Pros
  • Large selection
Cons
  • For old

Exciting and entertaining for the whole family.

Recently the planets Jupiter, Saturn and Venus were visible as they were really big and bright. I wanted to see it better so I decided to use a telescope and was not disappointed. My family and I really enjoyed looking at this telescope up close. The images are very clear and very beautiful. We really enjoyed watching the moon last night. Children really enjoy what they see. They are very excited and ask all sorts of questions. It is very funny! Thank you Celestron - StarSense Explorer LT 114AZ

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Hard to remember but it was

Delivered in advance! That's a big plus! 😊

Delivered yesterday, 5 days earlier than expected! Yeheyyy thanks Celestron! Must give a review once I start trying this telescope! This is currently not possible as we have very unhealthy air quality and smoke and ash are falling. Update coming soon! One day we will get clear skies and healthy air! 🙂🤞👍I forgot I never had time to update my review. Very disappointed with this scope. The app doesn't work, the alignment is terrible. I agree with the reviews here, it's a waste of money. I'm…

Pros
  • Makes me happy
Cons
  • Difficult to answer
