I have seen through this scope, now. Only at jupiter and the moon, though.
Without motor, (and maybe with - you might want to buy batteries (c or d size, i think) in preparation), challenging for a newbie to find objects.
EP's seem a bit cheap. They seem cheaper than my skywatcher 8 dob ep's which are same size but look a bit more well built. I just got a couple of 29$ plossl's from Andrews today and they are better than my bundled ones.
All in all, I got the sense that the scope was no better / worse than what you would get from a smaller scale scope compared to the other one. I did not try the same EPs as I was using in the dob and it would be unfair to make any further judgements accordingly. Especially making it work in inner brisbane.
I don't think you'll be disappointed.
