While it’s particularly well-suited for use with Dobsonians (it provides a huge 6mm exit pupil for rich field observing on an f/4.5 scope), it can provide “picture window onto space" images with any telescope type that can use a 2" eyepiece. With 16mm of usable eye relief, the 27mm Panoptic can be used by eyeglass wearers with almost no vignetting of the field of view. The 27mm Panoptic would be a welcome addition to any serious eyepiece collection.

It weighs a substantial 18 ounces, so you may have to do a little scope rebalancing when you use it with some low friction Dobsonians.
