Review:
One of the most outstanding characteristics of the Celestron AstroMaster is its simplicity of setup and use. The telescope is a bit more complex than other beginner telescopes, but this complexity does not carry over into how the scope is set up. Consumers report almost unanimously that the AstroMaster is very easy and quick to set up, even by consumers who have never before owned a telescope. Part of the reason for this ease of set up is the clear set of instructions that accompany the telescope. In addition, these instructions make the AstroMaster 114EQ relatively easy to use, even by beginners. The most difficult feature of the telescope to use is the red dot finder, which a few consumers have reported having trouble using. In general, they reported that it either took a significantly long time to locate the object they were looking for or that they were unable to use the finder successfully at all.
