While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Subjects seem to come and go on this list sort of like gravity waves
passing through space. I may be wrong, but I think the problems still
exist, and I've certainly read nothing here or elsewhere to indicate Meade
has finally got religion and modified its manufacturing, materials, or
indeed nothing to jack up quality control in the mechanics. Guess the
issue is just not the flavor of the moment <g>
