1.0 out of 5 stars Problems and No Support from Manufacturer, September 13, 2008

By	A. Boyce (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Although this is a nice furniture piece and the telescope itself has good power, we encountered many problems with our scope which the manufacturer has ignored and refuses to correct. Firstly, the telescope was filled with manufacturing debris inside. These debris are clearly visible through the viewfinder. We have used air to try and dislodge any debris, but many are inaccessible and can unfortunately be seen at some focal lengths. Secondly one of the bolts to secure the tripod together just did not fit. The bolt itself was the same length as the others but due to the poor fitting of the wooden components did not work on one of the legs. Thirdly, the lens cap has a felt material on the inside that was obviously attached with an adhesive and peeled away after removing the cap a few times. No manual or setup instructions were included and after 3 months the manufacturer has refused to offer any assistance. Nice scope, but only if you buy one without issues.
