For the money it is a great piece of kit. it takes very little time to learn how to use it. a moon filter would make the item unbeatable as a trainer.

and a Barlow lens would make it a great item to upgrade to. but for the money it is great.

celestron astromaster 130eq

Its ok for a beginner to intermediate astronomer a bit fiddly to erect but once done is ok i had to purchase more lenses with this product as the ones supplied are not very good for star gazing so i got the celestron accessory kit in which you get a Barlow lens and a 6mm and 15mm lenses also some filters blue red and a moon filter, i would recommend purchasing the kit when you buy the telescope, but the telescope its self is fine once you get used to operating the eqitoreal mount have fun :) Read full review

Good beginners telescope

It is a bit tricky to set up but once you get it set up and use it a few times it’s pretty easy to use,I’d recommend going on YouTube and look up a few videos how to set it up there was also a video called (how to align your telescope by celestron) iv used it and seen Mars on the first night which was beautiful, there is also a bit you could buy which include better lenses it’s in what other Customers bought section,the item arrived very quickly and very well packed. Have fun star gazing Read full review

Good starter telescope

Reasonably easy to set up and use. I also bought a motor which was less successful.
Awkward to pick up and move around which lost a star (no pun intended!)

Great telescope, dodge weather

Quite easy to set up as every piece just screws together. Plenty of demo's on YouTube that show you how to set up and use, only other bits I have bought is a moon filter and a 2x barlow lens,so far I have observed a partial moon and both Jupiter (and 4 moons) and Saturn's rings, all in all a very good telescope and great for all the family to enjoy will recommendRead full review

Great scope

Really well built scope. Great views. The lens are not that good so you will need to purchase better quality ones and if you want to pimp the scope change the red dot finder, but you can't fault the scope and the stand for the price. Excellent. Read full review

Reach for the star’s

Quality built 130mm telescope for a good price, with options to upgrade eye piece optics.
Solid tripod and tray for optics or coffee.
Easy to setup and go, once you learnt how to use the equatorial mount.
Only issue so far has been the included software and Windows 10 graphics issues.(common issue on older laptop hardware).
I shall be sourcing alternatives for imaging astrophotography. Very pleased with purchase.very recommended manufacturer 10/10

Great telescope for the money

For the cost this is a really good telescope. Do not listen to the one or 2 moaners, all I recommend is that you buy celestron's set of lens and filters and maybe a barlow lens and you are all set!
