Editorial Review:

Get a closer look with the Vivitar Refractor Telescope and Tripod. It makes a great companion at sporting events, under the night sky, or on a bird watching trek.

Avg. Customer Rating: 2.5 / 5.0

poor vision telescope:

I bought this telescope for my daughter because she asked for it for Christmas from Santa. It arrived in great time and was a relatively good price. The problem is that you can't see anything. This telescope is not powerful enough to see anything in the night sky except for the moon and even seeing the moon is difficult because it is tiny. I would not recommend this telescope for anyone unless they are using it as a prop.

Fun toy for certain people:

Ok, let me dispense with the obvious right off the bat. This is NOT a quality telescope. The optics aren't that good, the stand is flimsy, its hard to aim accurately. So why did I give it 4 stars? One word. Price. The $70 regular price for this is ridiculous. Its not worth anywhere close to that. But here's the thing, I saw this in the drugstore for $15 and bought it. I took it home and managed to aim it at the moon and for the first time I saw the craters of the moon and even the shadows the craters made.... more info

"telescope?":

The telescope is very hard to work for children under 13. I was hoping to be able to set it up for my nephew, but it was hard for several grown people to try to focus the thing. My nephew said that the moon looked bigger if he just stared at it instead of looking inside of this thing. You know what they say, children always say the truth.

Chinese engineering marvel- like the Great Wall:

I purchased this knowing I wanted a bottom of the line disposable product and I was not dissappointed. It is OK for the price as long as you immediately pitch the tripod into the nearest handy active valcano. You are much better off using your hands and a nearby tree or other support. Everything else works just fine for watching wildlife, but I would not expect it to do well for stargazing.
