      Comments about Celestron PowerSeeker 114 EQ Telescope:

      I purchased this telescope as a companion to my Starseeker 4.5" reflector. It Fits the go to mount perfectly,and the views are excellent, crisp and clear. The Finderscope does aling up; I think most people who say it doesnt are just giving up w/o actually trying to do so, as it does take a few minutes to set up, but once centered, it's "DEAD" on Target. The Tripod is also very sturdy. I would recommend this scope for anyone wanting a good scope for deep sky object's. Hayneedle with thier support team offers Fantastic service and Shipping is always free. Hayneedle, You "Rock"

      Comments about Celestron PowerSeeker 114 EQ Telescope:

      I'm no rocket scientist but I got this telescope to work for me. I live in Colorado so I had to "zero" the red dot pointer during the day by pointing it at a mountain. Once that was done and using it in conjunction with Google Sky Maps it was easy. We have seen Saturn's rings and Jupiter's moons and the moon looks gi-normus (huge). Highly recommend to anyone with enough common sense to zero the red dot pointer and has Google Sky Maps...

        Comments about Celestron PowerSeeker 114 EQ Telescope:

        Hi guys this is my first telescope and after reading reviews i tried to take back without even trying well guess what i couldnt. to my supprise i completed installation in less time than removing from box (thats a fact). i had to figure out my location in the finderscope then it was easy to zero in on a star. the first day i saw a planet with a moon around it 8/11/09 this was the first thing i saw. my location on the finder was top right 1/4 above mid line. after i figure that out it was like butter. i too agree that the 8mm was not needed see the 20mm was perfect. i even figure out the magnifier when using this remember you must readjust the sight to see a star clearly remember you moved the 20mm lense away from its original position. sturdy product, nice looking in living room. bad parts is you only have 20 degree turn with the black fine tuning adjustment. but so what. this product is great. ok but the next 2 days i had clouds what a bummer. the first day 1 hour of sky but, this was enough to see the planet andits moon before our LARGE BIG BOY MOON APPEARS it was awesome. i even saw a deep black crater on the moon. site also say dont look at moon when full. i am now looking for a gps or auto adjust for this machine GOOD HUNTING GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

              I have the telescope for three weeks and still haven't been able to get to work correctly. Very dissappointed. Also, the only paper that came in was how to assembled. No instruction on how to use it. I will be returning it back soon.
