This GOTO telescope with very good optics was produced at an affordable price point. The tripod and mount are undersized, so it is sensitive to wind and takes a while for vibrations to settle down. At 4″ in diameter it has sufficient light-gathering ability to see a great many objects, yet it is not very sensitive to atmospheric turbulence that can ruin the views in larger telescopes. It has a few too many parts to be considered grab-and-go, but it is quite light and easy to set up.
