Overall, we are very happy with this telescope and will get many years of use out of it - the only thing holding us back right now is our terrible winter weather. If I had one minor gripe, it would be that there is no fine control on the tripod, so when using the max magnification tubes, it can be a little tough to center on whatever you are trying to view, but because the tripod is so stable, this is not completely necessary. When aimed at our nearest neighbor in space, the Moon, the AstroView 90 yields tack-sharp views of the rocky lunar surface. Views of the planets and Moon through the f/10 AstroView 90 telescope are nothing short of spectacular. The build quality is very good - it has weight behind it and is stable when viewing. The Orion AstroView 90mm EQ Refractor is a planetary power-performer with its 90mm aperture and 910mm focal length. Assembly was extremely simple, and within 30 minutes, we were outside looking at the moon. After reading countless 5-star reviews on the Gsyker Telescope, we gave it a shot, and we are so happy. He is a novice with a huge interest in stargazing, so we wanted to find something that wasn't too expensive, but that would actually allow him to view objects in space.
