The order came fast and the price was right. The only thing that would have made it better is if it would have been made in the USA.

Comments about Meade Series 5000 Enhanced 2 Inch Dielectric Telescope Diagonal:
The 1.25" EyePiece holder that shipped with my new Meade 8" LS ACF was defective. So was the first replacement sent from Meade.
I received the third the same day as I received the 2" from Hayneedle. Meade took five plus travel days to receive each of the 1.25" eyepieces.
Out of frastration I order the 2" and received this within two days of ordering from Hayneedle.

Comments about Meade Series 5000 Enhanced 2 Inch Dielectric Telescope Diagonal:
If your thinking of upgrading your diagonal to a dielectric, this one from Meade is the way to go. Going with a 2" gives you the flexibility to use those eyepieces and the adaptor allows the 1.25 eyepieces as well. Excellent quality and works extremely well. Guarantees a flat mirror surface especially with 1.25 eyepieces. Well worth the upgrade.
