I have one but it's not a very good one. Honestly I can see just as much with my binoculars. It's a reflector type. It has a large aperture but the focal length isn't that great.
I've been wanting a catadioptric telescope for a while but haven't gotten around to getting one. I would like a nice Schmidt-Cassegrain one day. Meade makes some really good ones.

The equatorial mount is kinda hard to figure out but once you get it, it's really nice to track object.
