Let customers speak for us
from 139 reviewsMy first purchase as I am new to stargazing. These binoculars a great start. Quality product at a good price. Looking forward to my next purchase as I look for even better views.

Bought this for archery. It is heavy but what that’s what I wanted. It is solid in the ground and will not be blown over. I have accidentally knocked it with my bow when shooting and the scope has not moved a millimetre. Perfect!

I purchased this as a mount for an 80mm refractor. The aim was for something relatively portable that could be used in the field. So far it works well and should be ideal for the job. Being able to control the mount with an iPad using Commander Lite is helpful.

It’s my first scope, so it’s baby steps when the sky allows

The QHY MiniCAM8M with the IMX585 sensor and a full set of LRGB and HOS filters is the perfect way to get into mono imaging. It got me into it ;-)
The resolution of a mono camera is fantastic and works perfectly with my Askar 103 APO refractor.
My first LRGB was only 2h integration (clouds!) but would have been impossible with my OSC (ASI294MC): https://app.astrobin.com/u/Z3ph0d?i=id2xfw

I bought this book on a whim when I popped into the store (to buy an eye piece), not expecting too much ... instead I was pleasantly surprised, it is a great book, very interesting, and really well written so that novices like me can understand it too! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and keep using it as a reference guide for my stargazing nights. Highly recommended!

This was the first time I walked through the door (after only recently picking up my love for astronomy again) and the service, advice and prices were great! I’ll be back!

Thank you Andrew and team. Purchased as a gift. Customer service was excellent and product was perfect.
Highly recommend.

Team very willing to help, quick transaction, fast shipping, products as described, would purchase again or recommend to a friend :)

As always first class transaction.

I've used this on my 8" ASTRONZ Cassegrain and it gives a fairly sharp image across most of the field of view. Being a long focal length telescope at 2436mm I wanted an eyepiece that gives me that little extra field of view when compared to my other 30mm eyepiece.
