Babbo Natale ha portato questo telescopio a mia figlia di 6 anni che ama guardare le stelle ed è incuriosita nel conoscere le costellazioni etc.. È un giocattolo ma sembra davvero molto robusto e non sembra un giocattolo. Lo straconsiglio

It's mostly plastic, with the actual lens and barrel being metal. It's important to bear in mind this is a toy, and for a toy, it's pretty good.Had a bit of faff with building, the legs of the tripod mostly, but after this everything is logical - screw threads, wing nuts for easy grabbing to tighten or loosen, and things being logically in place. All parts eventually are screwed on, so there's no small parts risk for smaller children.On the top there is a 'spotter', a wider angle magnifier useful for selecting what you want to look at first, and then looking in the telescope to find it closer. Right by the eyepiece there is a circular motion toggle that adjusts the focus - if you can't see anything first time, pull this forwards and backwards to bring in and out the focus plane, which may reveal something. Long telephoto lenses which is what this is can have very short moments of something being in focus, and I found this difficult at first to see anything, but practice and you will find!The lenses are 20mm and 40mm - The lens (pictured) does actually say 4mm but it's not, it's 40, as the book says and also you can tell with it on (as you can see further away objects closer, it's more magnified).The tripod when fully extended is 89cm, so child's height still. The viewfinder piece mount can be positioned so that it's either pointing up (meaning you'd look down in to it, good for taller kids that can kneel or bend down) but it can also be tilted to the side, so smaller children when standing can look in. The adapter holds the two lenses, which are interchangeable.The information book provided is both a pain and a blessing - written with all the languages at once, it looks like a lot of words crammed and most of them you can't understand, so you have to search for the EN paragraph. But then, it really is packed with science and space information, written appropriately for kids. It explains solar eclipses, has tasks to draw the birth and death of a star visually so it's understandable, gives a bit of history, has some quizzes with answers in the back, shows constellations, instructions on how to make a rocket (it's messy and involves bicarb of soda, parents beware) so it really is a decent booklet that seems to have some thought and care written in, rather than just providing a telescope in the box.Sadly as I live in the middle of a city, the sky is never clear so I couldn't test this on the night sky, but I did as the book suggested and creeped on my neighbours. (I'm joking.) Poorly photographed are some examples of the rooftops and trees I saw in daylight, at the top of my road from my window.I think this is a good toy present, ideal for the kid that's adamant wants a telescope but you don't what to spend £££ just yet on proper scientific equipment, just in case it's a phase. If it's not, this certainly seems like good practice for a better one at a later date. It's not perfect, but it does it's job, and it is good enough.At time of review price £34.90, and bearing in mind this is very much a toy, I think it's value for money and worth it considering these factors. The information book is certainly that, and it's very educational, I think though this is yet another plastic kids toy, compared to others for a similar price, you get what your money's worth for it.
