Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
Comments: This is a very poorly made instrument. When you attempt to focus it the entire image shifts! Needless to say, you can't focus on what you're looking at because the image shifts to a different view! Not that it would matter too much since the scope doesn't focus to any degree of sharpness anyway! I didn't expect incredible optical quality for the price--but I did expect the scope to function as designed so I could look at the stars with my kids.

Comments: I bought this for my husband to use as a spotting scope for shooting. The eyepiece was broken on arrival. My husband is an expert marksman and said the eyepiece was so fragile that with normal use it would have broken with first use even if it hadn't arrived that way. Very unhappy, returned item.
