Without spending a fortune you can get a telescope that will not only satisfy the kids, but the kid in you! Our SkyQuest XT4.5 is a quality telescope, with point-and-view simplicity that makes it easy to use and makes stargazing fun! The optical performance is far and away better than flimsy department store models. Its 4.5″ (114mm) mirror, housed in an enameled steel tube, gathers 260% more starlight than a 60mm refractor. More light means you can see a lot more celestial objects in greater detail. In a review of low-cost beginner telescopes, Sky and Telescope (12/05) proclaimed the XT4.5 “The best of the bunch – a solid combination of optics and mechanics.” Try it and see for yourself!

We bought the Orion SkyQuest XT4.5 Classic Dobsonian Telescope and received it quickly from Orion. Got the first light and can say I am very happy with this scope.
I purchased the Orion SkyQuest XT4.5 Classic Dobsonian Telescope 4 days ago. Testing this out a few nights can say this is a decent scope from Orion
