Rechargeable Magnifying Glass with Light for Reading, 5X Large Page Magnifier with LED Lighted for Seniors Low Vision, Folding Handheld Lightweight Rectangle Magnifier for Reading Book Small Print

1) The magnifier is high-quality thick GLASS (not plastic like others) 2) It won’t break if you drop it 3) The highest power of light is best--The brightness levels may be convenient but not necessary 4) The magnifying area and 5x power is excellent and large enough 5) It is easy to hold: keep about 2-3 inches above your material 6) The only con is that you accidentally touch the soft touch on/off/power level button as you are using, handling, putting down, the magnifier. The button is large and convenient but your finger (and objects when you lay the magnifier down) tends to touch the button and changes: the light power level or on/off. So just press it again on purpose, back to your preferred function. AND: 7) When you are finished using it and lay it face down- --Check the lit side to be sure the low power light level is not on---sometimes you may have touched the button and left the soft light on -not realizing it 9) BUY 2! YOU WON’T BE SORRY--and keep one charged as you use the other--however: the rechargeable battery lasts a long time 10) Don’t buy the cheep plastic framed lit magnifier (or any of the plastic magnifiers--they have a larger screen--but rickety and rather blurry, worthless BUY 2 for each area you plan to use it: upstairs, down stairs, garage, workroom and keep them plugged in all the time so they will always be ready

While some may prefer a full-page A4 size, this smaller A5 size works for us in reading instructions, recipies and other small print items. It also fits nicely in the car glovebox and is a good handbag size for when travelling. The light-up sides adds to its versatility.

Love this magnifier. This is the best one so far that I've used. It's not to big and just right for reading. I like that it's chargeable, not to heavy, sturdy, good quality and glass not plastic. I would've given a 5 star but the only down fall is the sensitivity of the on/off light switch. It comes on with just a little tap or bumping anything against it. I wish the company would fix this problem. I still recommend this product. If you don't mind dealing with the sensitivity issue of the light switch than overall you would still be satisfied with it.

Perfect size to read an 8x 11 book with very small print. Easy to hold.

I like it more the longer I have it. I love that it recharges. I’ve used it to look at grocery ads and to play games that had cards with tiny printing questions. I’m happy with the light options. Works great! It’s lightweight which is great for my arthritic hands. Big enough to see what I need to but small enough to carry in my purse
