The focusser is a rack and pinion, a little stiff, but it is usable.
I think the flexing in the mount is mainly the legs, and the wobbling can be improved by shortening them and using a chair.
Given that having an equivalent setup of the best quality would cost anything up to 10 times as much, it is good value for the purpose.

Thanks Geoff , Maybe I should look again at buying just the OTA of a better model , Oh I just made my first acronym how exiciting! Then work on the accessories one at a time through advice from the forum.
Maybe that would result in a better quality setup . Have to think about this a bit more.
