Celestron PowerSeeker 60EQ

Entry-level telescope from the refractor model category, designed for initial steps in astronomy. It is quite suitable for observing the Moon, phases of Venus, and bright objects like Jupiter or Saturn, but when it comes to nebulas, galaxies, and other deep space objects, detailed imaging is not to be expected. The Celestron PowerSeeker 60EQ telescope is equipped with an equatorial mount with manual control, which sets it apart from simpler azimuth models. This mount allows for tracking objects along the celestial sphere, compensating for Earth's rotation, which is particularly useful when observing planets or the Moon at high magnifications. However, the process of setting up and using such a mount requires some learning time, which may be a barrier for an absolute beginner.
