Very happy with the SkyScout. Worked perfectly out of the box, easy to use, lightweight and sturdy. Was a huge hit with the grandkids. It was helpful to have a simple star chart with us as well, useful in finding the entire constellation once a single star was identified. Very fun, I can see getting a lot of use out of this great product.

Recent price reduction and free downloads of NGC objects a real plus! Using as a finder on my dobsonian. Works great!

This is an amazing gadget. When I first tried it, the GPS didn't work. I manually entered the coordinates and it worked beautifully. Now, after several weeks, everything works perfectly and automatically. If it were lost or stolen, I'd get another. I never upgraded the software .... Don't see the need and some reviewers have had problems (who knows why).

I bought the SkyScout to interface with my Orion XT8 Dob. It performed perfectly, I was able to locate The Andromeda Galaxy, then use the XT8 to view it. "excellent" It has in my opinion out performed what I thought it could do, and I paid under $200.00 how can you beat that!
