Thanks for any input.

NO!

The items in both the Meade and Celestron eyepiece accessory kits are not high quality. The shorter focal length eyepieces have short eye relief and overall the kits are poor value.

While I can't recommend choices in the lower price range, as I haven't used any of these products released in the last few years, I can tell you to avoid those kits.

Others more familiar with recent manufacture lower/medium price eyepieces will be able to steer you in the right direction.
