This telescope review site came out of a frustration with the difficulty of finding honest, accurate and unbiased information about telescopes and amatuer astronomy equipment. Days and weeks trapesing through forums, manufacturers' and resellers' sites added to frustrations and made coming to any realistic conclusions almost impossible.
Manufacturers and resellers have an interest in telling you how good their products are. Forums often start with good intentions, but all too ofetn a thread gets sidetracked and ends up with no conclusion and on a completely different subject.
We wanted somewhere where astronomers - and those new to astronomy or just finding out about astronomy - could come to get an honest opinion. Here's our best effort at that.
The site is always evolving, so please do feel free to suggest improvements or request reviews. Please keep requests to affordable telescopes - we'd all like the one below!

Feel free to contact us with comments and suggestions. And please remember, our reviews are just that - our objective opinions based upon our use and experience of products.
