Legacy Reviewer's Review of Meade 70AZ-ADS Short Tube Altazimuth Refractor 04074

Everything seems great with this telescope - quality, price, good for beginners. It is easy to use and the moon views are very nice. However, it is impossible to focus fine enough to see the rings of Saturn. You can see an oval shaped object, and, if you use your imagination, you can barely make out rings. This is just too frustrating for beginners. .
Pros: Sturdy, beautiful moon views
Cons: Cannot see rings of Saturn
