Hi Dennis
I bought one of them when I first returned to astronomy 2 years ago. On paper, it looked good.
It was very well made mechanically, but optically it was a disaster!
The figure of the lens was not too bad but the chromatic aberration was much worse than ANY achromat I have ever looked through. The colour error was at both ends of the spectrum, with any bright object being deluged with both red and violet.
I returned the first scope and tried a second one, and it was just as bad.
My advice is run, don't walk away from it-by far the worst refractor I have ever used.
