Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Lightwedge Lighted Pocket Magnifier, Black
Customer Review: Pocket Magnifier
Summary: 4 Stars
Excellent product. Very happy with it's handy usefullness in many situations at home and outside the home, at the grocery, in a restaurant, in my truck. Now I don't have to ask the wait staff at a restaurant for a flashlight and a magnifying glass - LOL. Gave it a four because it does not come with a convenience case, or the option of a conveience case, to keep the lens from scratching. However, I bought a small, inexpensive eyeglass case - either hard case or soft. I bought both because I have more than one light. The eyeglass case works real well to protect the lens and is a convenient way to carry the light.Customer Review: This is a compact & easy to use lighted magnifier.
Summary: 5 Stars
The handle slides down increasing it's size for use & acting as the light switch. This also means you are less likely to leave the light on & run down the batteries. It is pretty flat & lightweight so it can be carried in your pocket easily. I bought 2 of them & am going to buy some more for family & friends. Great product & the price is right!Customer Review: This is an exceptional magnifier!

This is a great pocket size magnifier! The LED light really illuminates what you're looking at. After much comparison of other lighted mags', my husband and I decided on this one. We originally bought two of them for our grandfather who's 94 and has failing eye sight. We sent him one and as soon as he received it, he was on the phone thanking us. He was very excited and impressed by its power and size! We kept the other one even though we see fine. Comes in handy! Easy to get to the two 3V batteries too. The only bad thing about this magnifier is that it doesn't come with any type of case so you have to be careful to not scratch the glass when not in use. Over all, it's WORTH the money!Customer Review: Very good but not great
Summary: 4 Stars
What I liked was the quality of the lens and the built in light. Then lens had no discernable distortion anywhere. It magnified everything evenly without the ripples and distortion that I've seen with other low cost magnifiers. This light is a nice touch and easy to use. If you want it on just pull the lens out a bit. It is focused very close to the center of what you will be look at and provides nice, even coverage.
What I didn't like was the brightness (actually dimmness) of the light and where it is focused. LEDs can be lots brighter, I know as I've seen them. Also, the light focuses at the center of you field of view but only when the lens is too close to be focused properly.
Bottom line is this is a good value for a magnifier and could have been made great with better quality control.
BTW, I feel that honest, effective reviews take the place of first-hand experiences that are lacking in online shopping. I've always appreciated the help I've gotten from other reviewers and continue to return the favor as best as I can.
