10x magnification is a complete lie. And the lens focal length isn't provided anywhere in the product materials, so there's no way to calculate what it actually is. But this isn't anywhere *near* 10x magnification. Disappointed that more reviewers aren't pointing this out; as long as people don't speak up, these sellers will keep lying about their products.

The magnification is about as good as my 3x magnifying headband.Am I doing something wrong ?….5star if not advertised as 10x

Magnification was my reason to get this. No where near 10X, maybe 2-3X at best. Lighting isn't that bright. 60W light bulb is brighter. Will be sending this one back.

Don't waist your money. To light weight, the neck won't stay in place. The clamp just bends forward. Dissatisfied totally.

Bought this for my son so that he could make jewelry to sell for a charity event. The clip is a bit hard for him to take off and put on different surfaces, meaning it has a good grip that doesn’t slide too easily. Not necessarily a bad thing until he strips the finish off of the table trying to get the clip loosened. I’ve used it for tying flies for fishing and it works well enough for the price.

I've tried many different lighted magnifying lamps over the years and some were just plain trash. You don't always get what you pay for but in this case I think I have. The clamp is very tight and sturdy. The ring lights ability to be adjusted seems like an added bonus. The magnification is 10x which is perfect for me. I have the beginning of macular degeneration. I work on a lot of tiny things.jewelry making, diamond painting, counted cross stitch and sewing of tiny doll clothes. This item has
