I do not make any money or benefit in any way from my recommendations. I purchased the telescopes shown in the video. Nothing was given to me or loaned to me.
This little scope comes in at least three versions:
Version 1 basic scope ($130):

Version 2 with full length tripod and finder scope ($160):

Version 3 with tabletop Dobsonian mount and finder scope ($160):

Features of the Scope
GOOD:
• Great optics! Comparable to a very good 60mm refractor.
• Cute with the little removable door.
BAD:
• Horrible mount. (except for the Dobsonian version). You cannot find anything and you cannot stay aimed at an astronomical subject, even a bright one like the Moon. Even the Dobsonian version is hard to use at 37x. You really should have slow motions at this magnification.
• No finder on the cheapest version. You must have a finder with this scope to make it usable!
• Only one eyepiece and the magnification is very high at 37x.
• Not suitable for kids in any version.
