Meade Infinity 70 is one of the best budget telescopes you can buy.

Orion Observer 70mm provides good value for the price. It is definitely a decent entry level telescope.

Meade 60 is one of the cheapest, buyable telescope models. If you can’t stretch your budget 20$ for Meade 70, it may be a reasonable choice.

ExploraScope 60AZ İS not a great astronomy device. But we recommend this telescope because it delivers what it promises: a decent quality, budget telescope for multiple purposes.

Celestron PowerSeeker 60AZ is a decent telescope that provides a good amount of value for its price.

Celestron PowerSeeker 70AZ, similar to its siblings, is a good refractor that comes with useless accessories. 

Orion GoScope III 70mm Refractor Travel Telescope is not the best telescope you can buy for the price. But it comes with a backpack and is incredibly easy to carry around. So it comes down to whether you are serious about astronomy or not, and it is OK to buy something that just works.

Meade Infinity 50 is the cheapest “real” telescope you can buy. It is OK to buy it but you should know that you will get a 40$ telescope after all.

Telmu 70mm Refractor is not a serious astronomy device. But it may be a nice gift for your kid.

Celestron PowerSeeker is one of the cheapest, "real" telescopes in the market. But unfortunately, this telescope is not buyable in any circumstance. 

Gskyer Travel Scope is one of the worst telescope models in the market. This telescope would be expensive with a 70$ price tag, and it is being sold for almost 100$. 

Celestron Travel Scope 50 lacks purpose and build quality. 

BARSKA StarWatcher 400x70mm Refractor Telescope represents all things that are wrong with the Amazon algorithm. This is not a real telescope. It is a useless toy being sold at the price of a real telescope, and it shouldn't be bought in any case by anyone.

Meade Infinity 90 is one of the best refractors at this price range, if not the best. The combination of the long focal length and 90mm aperture simply provides great planetary and lunar performance.

Meade Infinity 80 provides great optical power and portability for its price. But it comes with its downsides such as a plastic mount and short optical tube. 

Meade StarPro 80AZ is better than most budget refractors, but it has its weaknesses.

Inspire 80AZ is another, overpriced beginner telescope from Celestron. Don't get me wrong, it is a decent refractor that would please most beginners, but its price should have been slightly lower. 

Celestron is a company famous for its overpriced beginner telescopes. Thankfully, AstroMaster 80 AZS is not one of them. It is a decent refractor worth its 140$ price tag. 

Celestron Inspire 70AZ is not a bad telescope by any means, but its price tag is too high. The "extra" accessories that come with it are useful, but they are not worth spending twice as much for a 70mm refractor.

Meade Model S102 comes with a terrible mount that pulls the whole package down.

Celestron PowerSeeker 80 is a decent refractor, but it is not worth the 200$ price tag. For the same price, you can get the Polaris 80 or 90, which come with better accessories.

The holy Amazon algorithm is at work again with awful product recommendations.

It seems like Celestron tried to make the most frustrating telescope model possible and sell it to people so that they can discourage them from becoming astronomers. 

Meade StarPro 90AZ is what a starter telescope should be.

StarPro 102AZ could have been genius if not for its minor issues.

Meade Infinity 102 is a great telescope for beginners. It is easy-to-use, portable and its optics are surprisingly good.

Although Celestron Inspire 100AZ is a fine telescope that will please most beginners. The wobbly, plastic focuser is not an easy problem to fix. This puts Inspire 100AZ on the B level quality of telescopes instead of A.

Meade Polaris 90mm is a pretty good telescope for the price, but the equatorial mount is not ideal.

Celestron AstroMaster 102AZ is a great refractor with a slightly unstable mount. The only major downside is the price. 

AstroMaster 90AZ is a decent telescope, but it is highly overpriced.

AstroMaster 90EQ is the only telescope in the AstroMaster line that we actually recommend. It still has a wobbly, plastic mount. But its accessories and optics are vastly better than the other AstroMaster’s.
