Bushnell 3" reflector telescope - Bushnell 4.5" Reflector Altazimuth Short Tube Telescope - 786114

This is my first telescope - and in my opinion it is a great way to get started at a very manageable price point. I have seen some other far more expensive models - but like the both the ease and challenge of the manual focus device. I think that this model is perfect for beginnings on a budget and has provided some fantastic viewing so far. The rings of Saturn blew me away!
Pros: Light weight and easy to operate for beginners
Cons: Rack and pinion focus device can come loose at steeper viewing angles
