For a very low price, you get two very good quality eyepieces of 25mm and 10mm with the Hexeum AZ80600 that offer magnifications of 24x and 60x. A 3x Barlow lens is also thrown in to truly magnify your views: Whether that is the moon, planets or bright deep-sky targets.
Navigating the night sky is a breeze with the 5x24 finder which, according to Amazon reviews, performs sufficiently enough to align the main tube. Meanwhile an aluminum tripod of a decent quality allows for steady views — completing a setup that is easy to assemble (no tools required!) and within moments.
For beginners who want to try their hand at smartphone astrophotography, this portable refractor comes with a phone adapter. If you are someone who likes to travel to dark-sky locations then you will be pleased to learn that the Hexeum AZ80600 comes with a carry case for simple portability.
