4.0 out of 5 stars I am at that age...where I need a little extra help with the "fine print"., May 30, 2008

I have been looking for a light weight magnifying necklace for every day needs for some time and I was very pleased with this considering the reasonable cost. The chain is long and light weight. It is made of a simple material and does the job. The optics in the glass is surprisingly sharp for the price. The bezel is simple. There is nothing that will snag your clothes. On one of the bezels, the tiny screw was a bit loose and the glass fell out. I would inspect the fit of the glass in the bezel when you take it out of the package to make sure you do not need to adjust it. A tiny eyeglass screw driver can tighten it. I find this magnifier handy for most "quick reads" of fine print. I am always laying down my "cheaters" somewhere and with this, I can easily use the glass and move on. It's handy. I have even worn it out a few times and people compliment me on it as if it is a piece of jewelry and find it "unique". I am please with them and happy I purchased one in silver and one in gold.

1.0 out of 5 stars Broke on first use, January 22, 2010

As someone who wears glasses for reading, shopping is a huge problem. Glasses on. Glasses off. Glasses on. Glasses off.Glasses on. Glasses off. It just never ends.

I thought this little necklace would be the answer and it could have been, I think, but it was poorly constructed. Sharp edge on metal housing for the magnifier cut my finger when I put it on. I wore it for about an hour and the chain broke.

Get it at the dollar store cheaper and just replace it when it breaks. Not worth spending the extra and getting it online.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works well for my legally blind mother-in-law, January 2, 2009

My mother-in-law is legally blind (completely blind in one eye, fighting macular degeneration in the other). We got one of these for her, and she uses it constantly. It's also surprisingly attractive. She is finally able to read the tiny print on packaging at home and at the grocery store. You can't beat this for the price.
