Magnifying Glass with Light, 30X Handheld Large Magnifying Glass 12 LED Illuminated Lighted Magnifier for Macular Degeneration Seniors Reading Inspection Coins Jewelry

great help

I gave them to a 96 year old who lost his regular one. He loved the light in this one.

This is a good magnifying glass for the price. But there is no way it is close to 30x. I bought it for a project that my 10x was not strong enough for. I can’t tell the difference between the two, so this can’t be more than 10x. I also find it interesting that the box it came in and the literature in the box don’t mention anywhere what the magnification is!!

I like the bright light. Im looking at coins. Most times I have to keep moving either the coin or magnifier more than I thought I would. I just believe I should have gone with my 1st choice and gotten the stand alone. I would be able to use both hands. However, its fantastic for other things.

Reading small print on over the counter medications and prescriptions. Checking expiration dates on anything.

This is the best magnifying glass, with light, yet! It is great for my very find color by number art work. I Love It!!!

There is a circle of LEDs (12) that a few said focused the light into a ring pattern leaving the center relatively bare. I disagree with that! It is one of the first things I checked and I found the light pattern to be an even spread. Also. I found the brightness to be just right but not so bright that it causes glare. I cannot recommend this magnifier for reading, per se, if that is what you are needing. The field is too narrow for reading (although I suppose you could) but is perfect for very fine print or fine detail. I always have a magnifier within arms reach for that purpose. I got exactly what I wanted and Im pleased with it. There might be a better one out there even for the money but frankly I got tired of looking. Yes, I checked all of my local brick and mortar stores too. It looks and feels to be solidly constructed albeit a little heavy and bulky. (Which is my only complaint)

Great magnifier with the benefit of the light. Makes it so easy to see

I needed a new Magnify glass because, well, mine is probably 10 years old and I figured that I would give this one a shot. I use it only for reading that very small print; Im not a jeweler of a coin enthusiast. I am happy to report that I am very pleased with this product. The viewing glass is large, and the light is bright. It requires 2 AA batteries, which are not included. I find it to be a little heavy on the hand; but it is probably something that takes getting used to. After trying a few others from WalMart which were double the price (and I returned), I am glad to say that Im very happy, and highly recommend!!

I bought this for my husband who has significant reading problems. He is an avid reader and I dearly hope that this magnifying glass will help. I found it be easy to hold. It certainly did magnify print for me. I made an error in thinking that this did not need batteries. It does and it will have these batteries soon. Once the batteries are bought and inserted, I can speak to the 4 star ratings. It can be used without the batteries, but you wont get the lights. Update: When I tried to insert the batteries, the entire piece slid off. I noticed that one coil was as it should be while the other coil was bent. I left it without the batteries inserted for the present.
