5.0 out of 5 stars Quality product, March 3, 2009
By DonD "DonD" (West Plains, MO) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
The lens or viewing area is 5 inches. The total diameter is 5.5 inches. The magnification is less than 2X. The glass is of excellent quality. It's too bad it's advertised as 3X. This deception cheapens what is otherwise a very good product. DonD, West Plains, MO

5.0 out of 5 stars Nice wide view lens at a reasonable cost., February 20, 2008
By C. Washburn (Everett, WA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I bought this product in order to view some of my smaller print books and study bibles as I am getting to that age where it becomes difficult to read smaller font.

With a smaller viewing area it seems more difficult to follow the flow of words on paper, but this 5 1/2" round lens definitely helps there.

The only downsides is the heaviness of the lens, which may be a problem for some, and the rubber of the comfort grip has a bit of a petroleum smell. (I put a bit of scented baby powder on my hands, and rubbed it across the grip to solve the latter problem.)

All in all a great product for the cost.

1.0 out of 5 stars Do NOT Buy!!, January 18, 2009
By Lynne Mcallister (Pittsburgh, PA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Do NOT Buy!!!!

Complained to seller that magnification was nOT 3X -- it is 2X at
best. They responded that box said it was 3X and they do not check
the cliams. Made in China. Also very HEAVY -- not easy to use.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not recommended
Very heavy.
Poor magnification.
Cushioned handle slips back and forth and feels as if it may come off.
No protective storage for large glass surface.

4.0 out of 5 stars nice mag glass
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. Read more
