Item: Celestron SkyMaster Giant 15x7...
Author: Quiddi

We have analyzed 2974 reviews and found:

29% of users say that: Product are great, work great, are perfect, are big. Binocular are great, are fantastic, are amazing, are awesome. Tripod is a must, is necessary, is nice, keep steady. Price is right, are great, was right, is great. 1% of users noticed that: Tripod adapter is plastic, is made of plastic, is crap, is terrible. Tripod mount is plastic, is a bit wiggly, is not very good, is not very stable. Quality control is not there, is extremely poor, is obviously not a priority, is hit or miss. Adaptor is mostly useless, was junk, was flimsy.
