Review: Best I've Found - higher and lower $$ -- By far these are the best in this class - I tried several types- more expensive and less, and these are awesome. I can adjust so I see no dark spots, the close and distant features work well beyond others I tried. For the money - trust me, you can't get better than these. They are a tad heavier than the pocket type of course - but nothing that should stop you from trying them. I would encourage anyone on the fence to go for it. I'm sure glad I did
Review: Great for the price. - Excellent mechanically. At a dark astronomy site, you can't tell these from expensive glass. In town with streetlights, stray light will splash across your view. Even the sunset will through glare across the view if you look within 30 degrees of it. All binoculars show stray light near streetlights, but these show it more than my $110 Nikon Aculons. That is their only flaw, though. They are mechanically and optically great otherwise. I've gotten many people to look at them during astronomy outreach, and all were impressed. They are as advertised. For $25 shipped, buy them and don't worry about breaking them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good for the price
*by J***. on October 4, 2018*

Easy to get good results. I use them for amateur astronomy, they are quite good for that purpose. As with any binocular it is difficult to hold steady without a tripod. Amazing how many stars are visible that I can't see without them. The eyepiece adjustment for people with glasses is not as sturdy as I would like, but functional.
