Great magnifying glass

I ordered one of these for myself as I enjoy reading my Bible (printed very small) and also read The Chronicles of Narnia 7 book series in paperback. Even with my new glasses, I had to strain my eyes a little to read the fine print. I tried my wife's 4 inch magnifying glass but constantly looking back and forth was a problem.

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Big and bulky

The reason for this is that Revain shipped this along with a battery charger and a Carson Optical Illuminated Magnifold Magnifier in an oversized box with only a small (inadequate) plastic blister (on one side of the box) as the charger was…

Pros
  • High marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other alternatives
