Label is big and visible. That's the best of it. The rest isn't impressive. No brightness adjustment, or I didn't find it. Hard to adjust direction, need a screwdriver, at night. if you need something functional you will be happier with cheap no-name.

I use this with a TeleVue Ranger. The mounting block slides onto the Ranger, screws down, and the sight slides onto the mounting block. Correct screws for both are included. It will get your target into the field of view, once you get the alignment worked out (via elevation and lateral adjustment screws). For daylight viewing it's acceptable, although as others have found the small aperture of the sight makes it a bit inconvenient. At night, which is what I really wanted it for, the LED is too bright, and you can not actually superimpose the image of your target and the red dot without obliterating the the target. I can voluntarily view out of either eye individually with both eyes open, and commonly do that when using a camera, but it doesn't help here. The battery is completely exposed to the elements, which makes me wonder how it will hold up to moist weather, but I haven't seen any complaints about electrical failure in reviews at astro and birding websites.There used to be a version of the Qwik-Point that had a dimmer on an exposed circuit board between the battery clip and the battery. Some people complained that it was easily knocked off the unit when fumbling in the dark. I guess TeleVue found that most people wanted something else as a finder for their small scopes, and they seem to have discontinued the night time version with two LED brightness settings and a dimmer adjustment. I can't find it listed at TeleVue, or for sale anywhere.The construction quality is passable. It's plastic, made in China, and not up to the usual standard of TeleVue scopes, eyepieces, or accessories. The alignment screws are reasonably smooth. If you are willing to use a larger sight (I'm not, at the moment) there is an Orion red dot sight that people in the astro and birding community seem to think is better. It's adjustable for brightness, and has a larger aperture, but is more expensive.I gave this two stars although it functions as intended, because "i don't like it". The LED should have an available night setting, even if not continually adjustable. One resistor and a different switch would do the trick. I've seen a picture of a DIY version of replacement circuit board for continuous dimming. I'm not that ambitious yet.I will persist with this for a while, and see if I can get used to it. It's probably worth what you pay for it, in the context of what else is available.

I have used one of these on my scope for a long time and I like simplicity and ease of use. I find brightness control fine for my astro needs.
