    The telescope is very good for its price. With the little bag they provide, you can really have it with you everywhere and it is very easy to set up, while the tripod is very stable. However, the detector is very difficult to handle and focus, which makes your work quite difficult. Finally, when you try to make micro adjustments to see an object better, if you move the telescope even a little, you can lose it and good luck finding it again.

    Overall, it is very powerful and you can see very clearly up to Saturn/Jupiter

    I bought it for 199 € at the end of July 2022. The tripod is quite stable, but the telescope's support base is flexible and wobbly no matter what you do.
    What is completely unacceptable is the "explorer". It constantly dances. It doesn't have the support base that the manual claims. There is no way to align it with the 20mm eyepiece. As for the stronger one (12.5mm), I won't even discuss it. It has a front cover that takes a cap. As soon as you put the cap on, the cover slips off and that's it, you can't put the cap back on.
    With a lot of effort, you focus with the weak eyepiece. You lock it and change the lens. If you can figure out what you were seeing before, you win the lottery. After a long time (terrestrial view), you try to stabilize it on the subject. If you don't breathe, don't move, don't touch it, it stays still where you want it. If you try to change its angle a little to find your subject, good luck. If you want to focus, you go around in circles.
    Now I'm making my own base for the explorer. Later, I will make one for the telescope. Maybe I'll be able to see Saturn. Finally, stay away from misleading stores...
