A 80-mm Newton toys? Never heard of it.

Since they have no experience with the cone, I can not give an opinion about it. I know that a reflector on a Dobsonian mount is excellent for all age groups. I recommend that you ask the amateur astronomy club, because the discussion is about their interests and expectations with experience, people support be a good thing.

Well, it seems well made, and at least try to impress you with any unreasonable increase, like other companies, but I guess you could find a decent first field for about $ 100 to .....
This seems high quality and is probably a buy security, but I think you will find the largest AA reflector, for example, this kind of money. For example, in the same place, a position of Spotlight for under $ 100 ...

I tested a series of cone telescopes, as well as mechanical and optical performance was very bad, I would not recommend it. They are much better off with a Dobsonian reflector, as below. More open, view better quality, and much more solid mount.

Share your own telescope. You can just as well or better than commercial products. A mirror 4 is a two weekends. An experienced cutter can grind, polish, and figure 4 "mirror in a day. Typically, a first draft will be 10" or less. In the U.S. there are 20 or 30 sets of mirror-making.

I think a glass (lens) telescope aperture of 90 mm is much better than a toy Newton only 80 mm of opening, minus some of the obstacles.
I recommend this telescope lenses a good beginner telescope 90mm/1000mm.
