Riley G. ★★★★★

I was a little nervous buying used gear, but the 150mm aperture on this mount gives surprisingly crisp views of Jupiter’s bands. The CUBE II tracks smoothly once you get the hang of balancing it. Only wish the power cord had been included.

Jacob ★★★★★

For a used scope, the 150mm aperture still pulls in plenty of light—I caught crisp views of Jupiter's bands on the first clear night. The CUBE II mount holds steady even when I bump the focuser, and the whole setup feels solid despite missing the original cord and eyepieces.

Thomas ★★★★★

Even though it's used, the mount tracks smoothly and holds steady during viewing, which is exactly what I needed for my backyard. The 150mm aperture brings out surprising detail on Jupiter's bands, and the whole setup feels solid for its age.
