Rating  - Seems to do its purpose
This product seems to be good so far. It is well constructed and fits the scope well. However, it doesn't fit the telecope base. Not knowing much about telescopes when I made this purchase, I assumed the entire telescope package would fit in the bag.
Rating  - Alternate Uses
I bought this case as a cheaper alternative to a case for my photo gear (light stands, tripod, backdrop stand, soft boxes, boom, cords, etc.)
The quality of this case is great. It fits all of my stuff perfectly. It is well padded and the seams look strong. I'm using it for more weight than the telescope it was designed for, so I've made a webbing "basket" that surrounds the case. I made straps that come directly off the "basket".
I don't like the straps that come on the case. They are too long to carry the case like a suitcase; and they're too short to put over your shoulder like a suit bag. They're also off center, most likely due to the off center telescope the case was designed for. But this no longer effects me as I have made my own straps, and put them right where I want them.
Overall, I think this is a very well designed, and well made bag. I think the price is fair, and Orion seems like a good company to me. A good product at a good price delivered quickly, what more can I really ask for?
