5 out of 5 stars Great for the Family   June 26, 2009

It is fun and easy to use. It will either find what you are looking for or you can manually find what you are looking for.

There is an easy procedure to get the telescope aligned and once aligned, it can find anything that is programed into the handset. You can also set it to track something once you find it.

It is a very good telescope for those who are just starting out. Easy to operate.

The telscopse is good, The backpack is useless but I would recomend a case for the telescope anyway. I would seriously reccomend, if you buy this telescope, you get some rechargable AA batteries. I got like 12 of them. The autostar is a little complicated at first, so use in inn the daytime first.

The product works great! The only drawback is the free backpack. It's too small for the telescope. I would have liked for the backpack to fit the telescope b/c it would be easier to store.
