Not really practical / educational / fun Not exactly one of our best buys, though the low rating is probably unfair because it's based on our naive expectation that we'd get better quality (despite the price). It is small and the advertised picture is deceptive.

The stand doesn't do anything useful.
The eyepiece came out at the first use (within the tube), resulting in the need to force open the tube to fit the eyepiece back in.
