If you are looking for a relatively easy to use, budget telescope, this does the job nicely. Is it perfect? No. If you are an amateur astronomer, this probably isn't for you. If you are a parent/grandparent looking for a gift for an inquisitive child, this is fantastic. I was impressed with how clear the images were. The spotting scope actually is usable making finding images in the objectives much easier. The tripod is quite stable, which is a huge plus. Unfortunately, its also tiny. You'll either need to put it on a table or lay in the grass. I used an old camera tripod and it worked out pretty well, but it wasn't as maneuverable and stable as the included tripod.
Using this telescope with a phone and the included holder is a little tricky. The eye piece holder is not set firmly in place, so the weight of a phone tends to move it quite a bit. This results in the image being pulled out of the frame. This is accentuated when trying to use the Barlow adapter making it almost unusable, especially with a phone. I think looking through the eye piece gives a much better experience than using it with a phone.
The telescope is very compact. Save the box and store everything inside. The telescope is also small enough to be stored on a desk or shelf.
Update: I added a layer of painters tape around the neck of the focus arm. This helped a lot with stability when focusing. My images are no longer pulled out of frame when attaching a cell phone. I designed an adapter to connect my Nikon 1 cameras to the scope and the images turned out pretty amazing. The moon can easily be explored and the moons of Jupiter are clearly visible. I even captured Saturn with it's rings, though it's tiny and blury. Don't expect to see a lot of detail of the planets.
