Jupiter looks fabulous through it- red bands clearly visible. The base has the black laminate on it so it's nice and smooth- works so much better than my 10" dob.
I spread a mat on the grass sit on it to observe tho as I find it a bit harder with the table as I'm constantly adjusting my seating position as I move the scope higher in the sky.
I love using this scope when I'm fighting with sucker holes so is great for a quick session.
