I was amazed at the quality of these inexpensive binoculars. They come with a carrying case and a felt cloth to clean it with. A great deal. Exceeded my expectations.

Like Einstein said "All is relative." Can't beat these for the money. They do the job, magnify ten times, and, although the optics are average, you can make out alot of detail with some brightness. Very good for bird watching on account of the fast focus. Because of the rubber armour coating these feel solid in your hands and should last a long while. Buy two- one for the car and the other for the house and you won't feel the pinch!

For the money these binoculars ca't be beat. They fit easily in the hands. Fun to use. Excellent power and a fairly steady image. Can focus on close objects, as near as ten feet, and images a neighb orhood block away. Neck strap could have been more substantial, but the best thing is that this pair is portable and go everywhere you go. Highly recommended for the casual user on a budget.

These are great little binos. I got them free with a scope purchase, so I can't argue about the price. Being "cheap" and light, they are great for going everywhere with me and have seen a fair deal of work without letting me down. Excellent value for money in my book.

If you're looking for a cheap pair to stash in your car and carry in your pocket...these are it. I got them free with a Scope purchase and they are better than other free ones I have received in the past from other companies. The rubber exterior is really nice compared to other cheap ones that are made from plastic.
