Explore Scientific Two-Room Pop-Up Go Observatory Tent

What went from a good idea to have something to block excess light, to being a complete cluster F.Tent went up fine, yet somehow 2 of the loops to stake it in ground ripped. No wind, clear calm day. Just ripped, so now I can not stake it to the ground.When setup, first thing you find is you have to raise your scope so high that you feel the tripod you have just became unstable. I have an EQ6R, I should not feel that way.Next because you are so high, it is next to impossible to adjust to polar align. I had to lower the scope and take down the portion you need the most, just so I could align and actually image.If your image is not high in the sky, you will find at times the design of the tent blocks your view. At 2:00 AM I had to finally take the observatory part down. Thus defeating at least one benefit I felt I would still get.Zero instructions, and no clue how to refold it back down to the shipping size.Bottom line, I am returning it, it adds little to no value and the amount of extra work was simply not worth it. A cardboard box around your scope with the top cut off would work better than this product.

Have only set this up as a test, but it is well made. You will definitely need to use the anchor ropes to make it stable for use.
