3.0 out of 5 stars Not glass, October 17, 2005

By	**L** "I" (MD, USA) - See all my reviews

The product description fails to say that this is not made of glass. We ordered this, and was surprised to see a plastic sheet kinda magnifier(kinda like laminated paper). It requires to be held at 4 inches from whatever you need to read. Because, it's not glass, it tends to bend a lot and hence distorts parts of the text...I think, it is a waste of time!

3.0 out of 5 stars Page Size Magnifier, September 30, 2005

By	S. Moon (Sunnyvale, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The description of this product did not indicate that you have to hold the magnifier 4" away from the page. Had I known this, I would not have purchased it. I need to have my hands free to type.

I think this information should be included in the item's description

1.0 out of 5 stars Not good for reading., June 19, 2007

By	MDS "Spiraleyes" (Washington State) - See all my reviews

I grabbed this fresnel lens because my mom's magnifier is too small for reading. The distortion from flexibility and height/angle required aren't useful to her. Rather than sending it back I proved to my family that peter pan lives inside me. This device is good for directing a large spread of sun light into a focused point that gets so hot that the cast off light is blinding. I burned some weeds in the yard for a half hour or so. Then I tried making it into a diopter lens for macro photography it sort of worked but I will need a far better lens to get something like this to work.

Anyhow, I don't recommend this be purchased for reading. If you are a pyromaniac, geek, or have another need for the lens - more power to ya.
