## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this telescope work well (& is clear to see the moon,etc) for an 8yr old novice?dont want a plastic toy butneither a telescope fit for an expert.**
A: I think a refractor telescope is hard to use and hard to see objects other than a bright moon. I would suggest looking into a reflector telescope instead.  As far as the telescope itself, I think it is well built and good quality. It was just hard for our 9 yr old to use...and hard for me too.

**Q: How tall is this?**
A: I want to say 5'.. I bought it last Xmas for grandson.. Tripod is lt wt aluminum..If you take care of it it's a nice learning tool.. I thought it was worth the $...

**Q: is this product educational?**
A: This telescope can be used to observe the craters on the Moon, the rings of Saturn, and even the moons of Jupiter. If you are more interested in terrestrial viewing it also works well for spotting birds. The amount of education one can receive from this telescope, or any telescope or scientific instrument, depends highly on the users own ability to properly operate the tool and their ability to understand what it is they observe.

**Q: for children what age?**
A: Although its up to you, it may be best as a family activity or project for children between the ages of 7 and up who will enjoy watching celestial events. It's educational too. The product is packaged with software, two CD's with easy-to-follow instructions and a sky map to install. Hope your family will like it as much as mine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bought for 7 year old so
*by T***R on January 19, 2026*

Awesome. My son lives looking at the moon and stars

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic entry-level telescope
*by C***R on March 20, 2024*

I have now had several weeks to get accustomed to the Celestron PowerSeeker 60AZ telescope. I must say it more than lives up to its price point. For casual stargazing, there is not much better of a choice to make. Anything from the Moon to the Andromeda Galaxy can be found easily using the finder scope and provided eyepieces. For basic to intermediate astrophotography, it gets a little iffy. The mount provided shakes a lot in response to any contact made with it, making shots taken with a phone immensely difficult to line up. If you are going to use this for astrophotography, invest in a stronger, heavier mount. Also consider purchasing at least an additional ~10mm eyepiece and an entry-level CCD camera. I am saving up for one as this review is being written. Optical quality is right on-par with other Celestron products, in that it is nearly flawless. Once the scope is properly focused, objects appear absolutely crystal clear. Overall, this scope is utterly perfect for beginners as-is, but any higher level of dedication requires much additional equipment.
