Looking for a basic refracting telescope.   Want to keep price around 200. Looked at the celeston astromaster 90az.  Runs 200 with good reviews.   Just wanting something easy to transport and give my boys the opportunity to see the moon and maybe something else.  What are the pros and cons of refractive vs reflective.   And suggestions on a good product for the money.

Cheap refractors are terrible.  Cheap reflectors in that range are a great way to show your kids the night sky.

This is what you need for your kids.
