Simple, Works Well, Can Do a Lot, and It's Inexpensive?

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2007
The Bottom Line: The XT10 is an outstanding value. It may not be as good a choice for a beginner as the XT8, though.
Review: The Orion XT10 Dobsonian Telescope is part of a series of telescopes showing what standing the test of time is all about. Except for minor modifications, these telescopes have remained unchanged since they were introduced, and have been standing up...

Great choice, even for a beginner.

Date of Review:  Nov 18, 2004
The Bottom Line: An excellent choice even for newcomers to the hobby. I highly recommend it.
Review: I am new to amateur astronomy and decided on this scope due to it's generous aperture and relatively inexpensive cost.

Ordering:
I ordered my XT10 online and found that it was a very smooth process. I would like to add that the...

Orion SkyQuest XT10: A Great Start

Date of Review:  Aug 8, 2005
The Bottom Line: No reservations - buy it.
Review: Having never owned a telescope, and having little knowledge about who to consult as I decided to take the plunge, I purchased the Orion XT10 (online) after doing most all of my research online. Now don t get me wrong; I ve been admiring the sky for...

Look Up Into The Heavens

Date of Review:  Apr 22, 2003
The Bottom Line: Excellent views for a lifetime at a real affordable price. Now you just need some eyepieces!
Review: Dobsonian's...everyone's talking about them in the astronomy world, and it's no wonder. Known for its simple use of point and shoot including its tremendous size in apeture for cheap prices. These types of scopes are where you get an excellent...

Great quality except for the secondary mirror holder

Date of Review:  Jun 30, 2007
The Bottom Line: I will recommend this scope. Its like having a "manual go to scope" without the noise and high power requirements.Plus big aperature for big views at a unbig price.
Review: I,ve had the scope since December 2006. My only beef is (like most Dob mounts)the Azimuth movement being too jerky with small minute movements, especially nearing 90 degree zenith.Seems better with a spray of silicon lube before each session. At a...
