Convenient Hands-Free 3X Magnifying Glass With LED Light For Senior Readers – Portable And Foldable Review

Overall it's a big help. Being up there in years it makes reading enjoyable again. It's a good size, depending on what your reading, so using it vertically or horizontally are fine. Lighting is a plus.

My grandma likes to read, but had not been able to do so for a while! Most books come in small letters and she is not able read. This was a great gift for her! It even comes with a small string that lets it hang from your neck so you can turn pages without having to hold it!

Unfortunately this idea is a little weak for more impaired vision people .Sure it works fine in certain applications as describedI would not tell you not to get this item .

We were disappointed after we received the product because the plastic material that surrounded the magnifier was made poorly.

It is good for the amount money. Otherwise, it collapses easily and has to be placed just right or it creates a weird swirl effect and you cannot read all the text. I’ve used it on textbooks so these may be large than the anticipated use.

Works very well except that when I place it above a book or my laptop, it has to be flat. It’s a bit too low if I’m sitting in my desk chair.

Bought for a family member who cannot walk now after an accident. Hoping it will keep him in touch with events outside his home while he is disabled.

I tried to use this to better see the marks I was making in a book that I was book folding. The legs were not quite high enough for my purposes. If you want it to read a pattern or book it would be great. Just didn't meet my needs this time.

bought this for my mother to use since she is in her 80's and has a hard time reading some books.She loves it and says it works very well for her.

Takes batteries for the light. Switch is small, but really not a problem. Very good magnification. Easy to hold. That's my feedback.

My 91 year mother can now see what is of greatest interest to her, the receiving of hand written greetings and holiday cards.

Great for my wife, who has a vision problem. The hands-free height feature comes in very handy. Finding where the batteries go took a while. The battery holder is located where the lens legs are stored. The lens is not glass but does the job.

Disliked that it picks up glare and not easy to focus and the power cable is worthless after 2 months of use The product may be too expensive compared to similar items!

I ordered this product for my elderly mother. The product arrived quickly and did the trick. You can magnify one page at a time for larger books and two pages at a time for smaller books. The magnifier has a light and has four legs that can be used for table top reading. It is a little cumbersome for reading in bed it on the couch. Overall, I’d recommend it.

Only complaint I have is no USB power cord comes with the product- just be aware. Other than that I love it 🥰 The product may not be waterproof or humidity-resistant!

Magnifying glass works great! Easy to use. I like to read something during the lengthy process of getting my hair colored and highlighted. It's difficult to put my glasses on because of foils and color on my head. This worked great! I just put the cord around my neck and it rested comfortably on my midriff and I could read without squinting or any blurriness. You can just as easy use the legs to support it, too. The lights are there if you need them. I am very pleased with its performance…

Bought for father-in-law who is 92. His vision is declining and even with the aid of glasses he has trouble seeing print. It does help him but he says it is hard to hold and use. This may just be him. We have shown him how to use the neck cord in his recliner and read hands free which he likes. He says the magnification swirls are distracting. He loves that it has the lights and we think with some practice it will become a tool he really appreciates.

I love everything about the magnifier except for the fact that it comes with a non-standard USB cord. I did not need another connector type. I wish it used any one of the already to many existing standard USB connections on the magnifier itself. But no, some engineer decided that we needed another connector type just for this product. Otherwise, I would call it the best for the money. It is made out of plastic. I'll probably just use batteries and I do appreciate the two light levels.

Power cable has standard USB-A connector on one end but round connetor on other, so if you lose it you can't replace it with a standard cable. Fresnel lens has some distortion. Using it with fold-down legs on a flat surface requires putting your head directly over the device and looking down, which isn't comfortable. OK for hand-held use for short periods. LED lights seem reasonably bright using disposable AAA batteries. Not awful but not really recommended.

The magnification was fine, but holding the magnifier for any length of time while reading a book for 30 min. or more was taxing. Haven't tried the light feature yet, so cannot comment on its ability to aid in reading.
