I own 3 very similar scopes, they are okay... I have seen the great red spot on jupiter. I'd never pay full price however. something better is a table top dobosonian. they come in a few sizes and are probably the best bang for your buck. in visual astronomy bigger is better as you get more light. the starblast 4.5 inch or heritage 100p. something like the 150p or 6" starblast is defiantly better. if your in a pinch then maybe the celestron first scope however that is geting really close to the too cheap for comfort level
