Tools and Hardware Reviews of 5" 3x MAGNIFIER optical tool - MAP & NEWSPAPER

Customer Review: Excellent Aid In Reading
Summary: 4 Stars

I purchased this gift for an elderly relative who is having problems reading some smaller print on everyday items. This magnifier does the job admirably. It is large enough to enable the reading of books - or any other item.
Our one complaint is the rubber handle. It does not feel like it is securely mounted, and gives the impression it will fall off soon. This does not take away from the functionality of this lens, but kept me from giving the product 5 stars.

Customer Review: nice mag glass
Summary: 4 Stars

I recently bought this mag glass. I immediately enjoyed having it. It is big, with a large viewing area, and the peripheral distortion is quite tolerable. it's built with good quality. The only thing that prevented me from giving it a 5 star rating is it's relatively heavy.

Customer Review: 5.5" Magnifying glass
Summary: 4 Stars

The magnifying glass is great. It is difficult to locate a glass of this size for so reasonable a price. It shipped quickly and arrived within a few days of placing the order.

Customer Review: Chinese mag glass in need of glue
Summary: 3 Stars

The item arrived in mangled packaging state. When I took the mag glass out of its box, the glass itself nearly fell to the floor as the securing plastic ring fell out as well.

I had to use superglue to secure the glass retention ring in place. It would have been nice to have a pouch for the unit. Isn't there anything that is made in USA these days?

No, I suppose there isn't, just like UK and everywhere else. Shame that.

I suppose for the price it's reasonable, but I'd rather pay a bit more for quality product, this is the usual Chinese crap.
