Hello! i am seeking the help of those with experience in refractors please!!
I have been an amateur since i was just a wee lad, i have always owned catadioptric and reflectors of many types, unfortunately short of my current Lunt LS60PT and the department store pea shooter i had as a 12 year old and my which spent way more time peering through windows in the apartment complex across the street than gazing at the sky i have NO experience with refractors.

We recently purchased a refracting telescope for our niece. She had been using an old pair of binoculars to view the view and look at the stars. We found a great online deal for the Celestron PowerSeeker 70EQ, and she loves it! Who knows, maybe one day she'll grow up to be a scientist !
