I was very happy with the Barlow Lens.
It showed me the moon twice as large and it was twice as beautiful.
Thank you for this lense -
Pros: Price is great -

This barlow lens is good. Small, high built quality and yet selling at bargain price. Fully multi-coated optics provide excellent light transmission. The only issue is there is presence of slight chromatic aberation when used with high power eyepiece (my meade super plossl 9.7mm) but for the price I'll never say no this product.
Pros: Clear image, multi-coated optics
Cons: Slight chromatic aberation
Would recommend: Yes

This barlow works very well. Most amateurs (like me) don't need to spend any more on higher end barlows. Good value.
Pros: Clean, crisp views. Good value.
Cons: None.
Would recommend: Yes

I used this barlow with a Meade 114EQ-AR also purchased from this website. It's a beginner newtonian reflector with kelner eyepieces. The barlow did not degrade the quality of the images; a great addition to this scope.
Pros: Clear, sharp images
Cons: none
Would recommend: Yes

The Meade Barlow works very well for nebula and deep space objects but not so good with planets unless you use the higher mm lenses.
My next purchase will be 07176-02: 1.25inch Meade Super Plossl 32mm Eyepiece.
Pros: Works well with my 25mm lens.
Cons: Not quite as clear as I thought it would be with my 9mm lens but still a great buy.
Would recommend: Yes
