Draper should stick to making tools!,
Yet another cheap and tatty telescope to catch the unwary consumer, a wobbly mount and flimsy tripod, this will do nothing but bring disappointment, a cheap and nasty telescope only extinguishes the fire of enthusiasm. If you’re serious about buying telescopes then look at names like Meade Sky Watcher or Celeston. These companies build proper scopes for serious amateurs.
Spend your money wisely, be wary of claims of high magnification intended to catch out the novice. Changing the power of a telescope is as simple as exchanging an eyepiece and all scopes have a maximum useful power which is about half of what it is capable of. Power is not everything, how much light your scope captures is king. My advice would be to save up your money and buy a scope with an objective lens of at least 4 inches. I would particularly recommend the Celestron NexStar 4SE to anybody starting out, though some of Celestrons cheaper telescopes are also equally suitable.
Do your homework and read the reviews on the internet before wasting your money. There are some great forums out there that offer free advice to would be stargazers if you take the time to look.

76mm Reflector telescope,
I have a telescope identical to this one , it gives excellent views of the moon and a few nights ago I had excellent view of Jupiter and its Red spot and cloud belts and moons also Uranus which is currently next to Jupiter
this telescope gives good view of Saturn and as the rings begin to open out over the next few years you will get a good view also good for star clusters like m45 pliedes and the Orion nebula
use the low power eyepiece first to get the object then change to high power once you have the object ,some nights are better than others for seeing and you can get higher magnification
it is worth investing in better quality eyepieces for the telescope and you will see a huge difference
despite what some people say , you can actualaly see a lot with a small telescope if you know how to use it

Avoid!!! Buy a real telescope instead.,
In the product Features you see:
Dobsonian (Newtonian) reflector telescope
76 mm reflector lens
Ideal for viewing the sky at night
For observing nebulae, moons, planets and galaxies
Great beginner’s telescope
My responses are:
A dobsonian is a type of mount, not a type of telescope.
It has a reflector MIRROR not lens.
The alt az mount is not ideal for night viewing.
You will not see nebulae with this scope.
Likely to put a beginner off astronomy.
That is enough to start with.
Now to the Technical Details.
Operating air pressure 70-100 psi (4.8-6.9 bar)
Average air consumption: 9-14 cfm (241-340 L/min)
Air inlet: 1/4 inch BSP
Cup capacity: 1 kg
Weight (empty): 0.9 kg
They have obviously left the spec from some air tools in there.
Now if they can’t get basic details right, can you really imagine that this scope will be any good?
Don’t know who is the daftest here. Draper for producing a wildly inaccurate description of a piece of junk. amazon for copying the rubbish and trying to sell it. Or me for taking the time to do this.
