4.0 out of 5 stars
Nice scope for the money, March 17, 2006
I shopped around for a few weeks before I bought the Tasco Luminova, and felt it was the best deal for the money. My wife (The Boss) limited me to $100 from our budget, and this scope had the features I wanted.
It was nicely packed, the parts were clearly labeled and fit together without a hitch. The instructions were clear and the pictures informative. I assembled it in less than an hour.
I have enjoyed it for both stargazing and terrestrial use, watching hikers make use of the many trails in and around South Mountain Park, near our home.
All in all, I have to say I have been pleased with my purchase, and would have paid more for a lesser telescope elswhere.

Very bad, June 7, 2007
This review is from: Tasco Luminova 660 x 60mm Telescope (Electronics)
My first telescope was just like this one. A telescope that has a 60mm apature can not be pushed to 660x and still be useful. For a 60mm apature you'll want to stay under 125x. Power for a telescope is not important. I got a very clear view of Saturn with only 80x. I have a scope that has 8 inches of apature. Do yourself a faver and spend more money and buy a better scope.
