I bought this for my 5 year old granddaughter and she was a bit small to be able to focus well. However, it worked well for me and the size and weight were great for portability and I really liked the look. Unfortunately I had to return it as the lens had a crack or hairs that caused a line down the middle when looking through. I tried to clean the glass but the defect was inside. In time I'll buy her a new one, but I'll wait until she's grown up a bit.
