Fantastic Scope
Pros
Excellent tracking. Pleasant to look at. Easy setup.
Cons
No AC adapter included. Included manuals that don't apply to this scope.
Recommended it?
Yes
I pre-ordered this scope in June, and received it in August. I am very awed at this scope due to it's quality and good looks. It came in three boxes and was fairly easy to setup. I have viewed through this scope on a few nights and find the views breathtaking. I love the ease of the 40,000 object "GoTo" system and the many types of alignment options. The 2" legs of the mount is very sturdy. Tracking is very excellent with no movement of the object in the eyepiece.
I also purchased the Celestron $99 eyepiece/filter kit, which is a very excellent value, as well as an f6.3 reduced/corrector, AC adapter, Light Pollution Adapter, and the Celestron Power Tank.
Overall I feel I made a very good purchase and am extremely happy with this scope.
