I bought one in January. I got it in April. The technology is still pretty new, the ios interface has a lot to be desired, but they keep making improvements. My wife likes that it is much smaller than lugging my 10" dob around. The go to is great, but so far there is not many targets in its database. And pointing it without the go to is cumbersome. The in camera stacking is pretty cool, and I have gotten the best images I have ever done with it. My other scope is a 10" dob without tracking. That being said, the images are cool, but not stunning like you see from more expensive rigs. I would say get one if you are not planning to get a serious rig. Or if you need a gateway drug to encourage you to get a better rig. It is fun, and a great price for what it does. I would say its more of an astrophotography toy than a tool. It can do better than anything without tracking. And it makes it easy to do so. But almost anything with tracking will give you a better image.
