Best Planisphere for the price......................HIGHLY RECOMMENDED................!
I live in Florida and it is very accurate and very precise down to the very day, month and hour. I have heard so many bad reviews on this Planisphere that it is not accurate at 30 Degrees from many stores selling it and I will say it is very accurate. Sure the print is small in some sense but that is typical for any Planisphere.I will say for those who have real bad eyesight; this is not for you and you may want a glow in the dark one. However and I will say this though; if your eyes are too bad to see the print on this thing, then I will say looking through a scope will not do you any justice! :)I will recommend this to anyone in the location to use this particular Planisphere.

Works
This one is fine, but I only need 1 so I returned this 1, & kept the "The Night Sky 30°-40°", by the David Chandler Co. Actually, the Miller Planisphere might be better for night viewing but w/ my homemade red flashlight my "Night Sky" planisphere seems to be a better choice for a beginner like me.I recommend it.

High Quality Plastic, not paper
I bought this planisphere to replace a 27 year old one still in perfect condition. I live in mid Arizona and wanted to track constellations that my old 42' N. Lat didn't show. This one is made of sturdy plastic like my old one and shows constellations down to declination -60. It also comes with a protective sleeve that you can place in a 3 ring binder. With keeping this one out of direct sunlight, I expect it to last 27 years also. I highly recommend this planisphere.

Lots of information on this planisphere.
Large size fully plastic planisphere. This one is a little difficult to read, the contrast between the star/constellation information and the black night background, is not high enough to make it easy to read. For this reason I have to dock it a star.I also found that sunrise and sunset predictions to be off by 45 minutes and 23 minutes respectively. I believe that this is probably because I am at the outside edge of the northern latitude, for my particular planisphere (25°N - 35°). I think that spot on sunrise/sunset predictions are only available at the mid scale latitude of 30°N.

Great tool to get started learning about the stars
This is wonderful, and so interesting! I bought a telescope for my twin grandsons' birthday, and this planisphere star finder was so interesting and helpful. We were all looking for the different constellations and we were able to find them with the help of the planisphere. It is very easy to use by rotating it to the correct date. If anyone is interested in learning about the stars, this is the best tool to get started!

The best planishpere I've seen
It's easy to use in the dark since the stars are white on a black background.There are models for different latitudes. I live in Texas and the 30 degree model is great for here.It's waterproof so there are no dew issues.It has all the standard features you expect from a good planisphere.

Planisphere ( It ain,t "Miller" time)
Print is much to small and is very difficult to find anything for night use. I,ll keep looking for something better.

Great big wheel
I have used these for 15 + years. I know there are Apps to do much the same thing - but I still like the Planisphere
