30X 10X Magnifying Glass with Light and Stand, Folding Handheld Magnifying Glass 18 LED Illuminated Lighted Magnifier for Macular Degeneration, Seniors Reading, Close Work, Coins, Jewelry

This magnifier is brilliant. It's exactly what I've needed for years. Having a self supporting stand lets you have both hands free under the glass part to look at very little whatever. No more trying to blue tack the handle of my other mag glass to something so I can have both hands free.The size is perfect for most uses in the home. You need to put 3 AAA batteries in it. None were included in the box. The price was reasonable & was on offer when I purchased the white one. I would recommend this item.

Great gadget,helps me see to sew, new to embroidery and my glasses not enough, I needed this , it's fab, the light is so helpful, can't fault it.

The downsides...Be sure you know what 10x magnification means. It is 10x by area so don't expect something 1mm in size to appear to be 1cm through this - it would appear at best just over 3mm (square root 10x) and at the distance on the inbuilt stand is barely double - see picture. Holding further away will give a higher magnification but at the expense of distortion.The small 30x glass in the handle appears to me to be next to useless.It is a little large to hold comfortably and all too easy to accidentally press the light button which cycles through the range of brightness/light temperature options.The good points...The inbuilt stand will probably be useful.The LEDs are bright and diffuse so no annoying reflections were obvious.At the stand distance there is minimal distortion.The lens seems to be glass so resistant to scratching.Fairly robust construction.At the price I consider it to be good value.

My husband who is into fishing was struggling with putting hooks on etc now he has this magnifying glass he is really pleased with it and getting the job done. It can be as bright as you need it's very stable and it has a great stand so you don't need to hold it,

Wasn’t sure what to expect bearing in mind the price point, but this blew me away with its quality, versatility and features.Very little distortion at high magnification, very sturdy, easy to store as it’s so compact and as for value for money, exceptional.Highly recommend!

It does a good job and it convenient when you have it as a desk magnify to look down with having both hands free. However, as a hand held tool then it's to bulky and clumsy, an the on/off switch is in a awful place. In the daylight for example when you pick it up, as soon as you place it in the position to use your thumb "touches" the power button and it turns the lights on. To turn off you have to go through the cycle x4. It's one of those little annoying things that take away that nature motion in using such a too and causing a little frustrating after a few times!Its best benefit is as a desktop tool!

An absolute must for seeing finely detailed work in projects. It’s just the right size to have on hand and the magnification is ideal. I have a larger one which clips on to a shelf but I much prefer this one for handiness and ease of use. Perfect for my needs. Highly recommend.

Perfect for medium and small projects- clear and excellent magnification. Light is an added bonus..Good enough when power is off!! Very pleased.
