Rother Valley Optics Avis 1 232

I ordered an S30 Pro smart scope and received it the next day, very impressed.

I stumbled across Rother valley optics. I spoke to a very helpful chap who confirmed stock availability. It was 14.30 when I placed my order and by 10.00 am the following day I had my item delivered. An exceptional service from start to finish. Thank you and I will definitely be using them again. Thank you. 5 stars.

I just was looking for a special rare astro camera. But in Germany, the delivery service takes about four months. Thats why i was crossing the border on internet to UK and i hot it immediately: perfect and super fast service by Rother Valley Optics. Even the handling with UK and German export/import taxes was super easy. And after 4 days i already got my product from UK. This is what i name: perfect customer service. Thank you so much 👍

I’ve nothing but praise for Rother Valley Optics. From the first contact to receiving my NL Pure binoculars, the service was first class. The price, communication, speed of delivery were fantastic (I ordered the binoculars on a Tuesday afternoon around 4pm and received them on Thursday morning at 9.15am - and delivery was free) My binoculars were well packaged and protected too.

I’d have absolutely no hesitation in recommending or using Rother Valley Optics again. Thank you so much!

Can’t recommend Rother Valley Optics enough
Yet again Adam to the rescue
This time he did a fantastic job sorting out my errant crayford focuser
Service is not only fast but impeccable
Staff are super helpful and nothing appears to be outside of their remit
Thanks again guys

I recently purchased the following items from Adam at Rother Valley Optics Ltd:

ZWO ASIAIR Plus (256GB)
ZWO ASI120MM Mini guide camera
ZWO 30mm f/5 Mini Guide Scope
The order arrived the very next day via DPD courier and was extremely well packaged, ensuring everything arrived safely and securely.

The newer ZWO 30mm f/5 guide scope appears to be a noticeable improvement over the older 30mm f/4 version. The ASIAIR was updated and tested without any issues and is working perfectly.

As always, Adam provided excellent, prompt service. Many thanks!

Just brilliant. I ordered a tripod and it had a fault. Despite not having a replacement in stock, Adam got another one to me in less than a week. Very highly recommended. Thank you Adam.

Amazing service. Spoke on the phone for 30 minutes, got some great advice, learnt so much in that time, I then went ahead and purchased a Sky-Watcher 200p
Telescope which arrived sate and sound the next day,
Such lovely people, no pressure to buy, I have since ordered a Barlow lens, Well done RVO.

Excellent customer service! an item I bought was out of stock but they got back to me quickly and kept me informed and answered all questions that I had!

The order turned up on time, very happy will buy from them again.

A huge thank you to Adam for offering his advice on selection of a telescope and mount for imaging. I arrived at the store and Adam and Jamie were most helpful and showed me around their showroom. Very impressive. I cannot fault their customer service and range of products. I would highly recommend. I will be shopping there again.

Had such a fantastic experience with this company
Thanks to all the team

Ordered and within a couple of days I have my new tripod which I am absolutely thrilled with, would definitely recommend these guys extremely helpful and fantastic Communication Thankyou again for your help 🙏

Absolute delightful experience. I emailed the seller to ask if a product was in stock and within minutes they replied to my email. Not only did they reply in flash, the delivery was made next day! Super efficient, affordable and convenient company. Couldn’t recommend enough.

Thanks again to Adam and the team for going above and beyond to help me out with a nightmare connection issue with my ZWO ASI Air Plus and Mount! Honestly this business and it's staff have been absolutely brilliant! I've shopped with RVO for years and I can unequivocally guarantee you they're the best on the net for customer services and prices! I cannot praise them highly enough...

OK, everyone knows that the guys at RVO are all extremely helpful and friendly, as they are, period, but the reason I am doing a review relates to my purchase. I am in my 70's having had a couple of telescopes in the past, 120 refractor, 150 reflector, both have gone but still I have the itch. Did my research and travelled to RVO to view my intended. I was introduced to the RVO Horizon 250 Dobsonian. I'd not heard of this brand. After only a couple of minutes I'd bought one, why? I intended the Sky-Watcher 250. The RVO is around £80 more, so what do you get for the extra cash. First and foremost there is a ball brace and roller bearings on the turn table, brilliant and smooth. A battery operated tube fan. A 90 degree eye piece on the spotting scope (a must). The clutch mechanism on the axis pivot is a couple of full sized nobs one on each side, not a simple screw handle on one side of the cradle. A dual speed Crayford focuser. A smart phone bracket and holder (that's £20+ on Amazon). And finally you get not 2 but 3 eyepieces. What I am trying to convey is that for around £80, you get all the little necessary extras that make a decent telescope excellent and exactly what you need. I can't comment on the optics, no expertise or comparisons, but I'm happy. Finally if you're after a 200 or 250 Dobby, seriously...... consider the Horizon.

I phoned RVO 5 minutes before closing time and was given the time to get solid advice about what telescope would fit my requirements.

Navigating their webpage was easy.

Someone from RVO phoned me the following day to confirm my address. (I had given the wrong post code) and my new telescope arrived the following day.

As a newcomer to astronomy I decided to call in the store for advice on my first telescope. I was guided to a Dobsonian 8” as I wanted to keep to visual viewing. This sent me towards the RVO own badged unit which was the best advice I could have received. The unit is great with many inclusions that other people are upgrading such as focus unit, bearing on the base etc. RVO from start to finish have been so supportive throughout. And to add to this I keep finding that they are so very competitive on price. If this is a subject that you are considering, talk to them and get good advice so you don’t make a mistake that you will regret and save you in cost along the way.
