Kaome Rectangular Magnifying Glass with Light Magnifier Large Foldable Handheld 5 LED, 2 Dimming Modes, 2X Magnifying Reading for Seniors Low Vision Books Pages Magazines Newspapers Maps Jewelry

Super handy for my mother who likes to read in the dark. She said the handle was quite comfortable and the light switches between brightness - making it optimal for those who want a bright light or a dim light. The light is a cool white light, which might feel harsh on the eyes. Magnifying glass is great, works really well and has a large amount of space visible (if you're reading a large book with small print).

This is an excellent magnifier, hand held and has battery operated built in lights. I got an eye problem and use it for reading as very often I find print in books, etc.can be too small . Very useful to have

1) Ergonomically compromised2) Handle only locks in one position3) Optical quality good, but not perfect4) Light does not auto shut-off when handle closed

This is a great magnifier with a built in LED light which is just what I was looking for. I’ve recently turned 50 and have now got into the shocking deteriorating of short-sighted eyes due to ageing 😕. I’ve been very fortunate and had perfect 20/20 vision until recent years but now have prescription glasses for reading etc. Although the prescription glasses are a big player in my life now I still struggle reading menus in dim lit restaurants and cafes etc, and even with glasses struggle to read tiny print on instructions, food labels, washing instructions etc.This is where this little beauty comes in…..it’s got an LED LIGHT!!! Genius and amazing. I can see everything in teeny tiny ‘Borrowers’ writing now. I wanted something for everyday quick use at home, but would also be light and convenient to slip into a handbag for when going out. This is perfect. Great magnification and a nice big magnifying area that enhances a good sized area. The glass on this magnifier is approx the size of my iPhone 8S screen, which is perfectly adequate for what I need. I much prefer battery operation to the USB charging versions out there too. I find USB charged items quite frustrating as they don’t appear to hold their charge for long, on items I don’t use frequently, so on the occasions I need to use them they’re flat. A battery is far easier for me. This takes 3 x AAA batteries conveniently located in the white handle. Yes it makes the handle a little weighty, but it balances nicely in the hand, and 3 small batteries aren’t exactly heavy. There’s 2 stages of light brightness on this. Both are bright and good for purpose. Good to have 2 light gradient options on the neck of the handle. It took me a while to find it actually. You automatically are drawn to the white axle pin cover for the folding arm mechanism….which it isn’t. It’s the black hidden on on the neck of the handle. You can still see me stupruggling to find it on my video I’ve attached. What a numpty!! 🤣. It also comes with a black cloth drawstring protector bag which is a nice touch for storing in drawers and putting in the depth of a handbag.The only thing I don’t like about this magnifier is it feels like it’s made and designed for left-handed people, which I’m not. I know this sounds weird, but my personal preference would be to hold this in my right hand so the magnifier is it the portrait position. Doing this the LEDs are facing my face and in my eyes as the lights are only on one side of the magnifier. When turning it into the landscape position in my right hand the handle feels slightly uncomfortable as it turns upwards not downwards in your hand, as if it’s for a left-handed person. It’s just a small gripe, and not enough of one to return it for the limited use it’s intended for. It’s a really great magnifier with powerful LED at the end of the day. I just wanted to give an honest and balanced review. I’d highly recommend this for those with similar eyesight issues to mine.

Good shape and size, This bookworrm no longer has a problem with small print and/or low light. Highly recommend.

This is quite small, so good for reading instructions on packets or small print on paperwork, but perhaps too small and heavy for prolonged reading of a book. I don't understand the comment that it is for left handed people. I held the handle in my right hand and the light went down towards the page, not up to my eyes, which it would have done if I held it in my left hand. I am a bit annoyed that it came without the cloth bag to protect it from scratches, which would have been very useful. I can't be bothered to return it for a refund.

As l get older l find that the printing on packages etc is getting smaller. I bought this and its great. I can read the smallest printing now and with the light it makes reading even in low light easy

Good fast delivery, quality seems ok

La sua leggerezza. La sua praticità è la comodità. Ingrandisce bene e sono molto comode le lucine a LED e la possibilità di potenziare o meno la sua luminosità. Buon prodotto anche perché essendo una lente rettangolare riesce a prendere bene una frase di un libro, di un bugiardino o di qualsiasi rivista. Comoda, pratica. Mia mamma l'ha subito apprezzata per i motivi sopra citati.

I needed something to help me read my bible because as I'm getting older, the small print is harder to read, and I didn't want to give up reading my physical bible. There's just something about holding it and highlighting meaningful passages.This is perfect because with the rectangular shape it's easier to read an entire paragraph, and the lights along one edge of this make it even more legible.I highly recommend this! It's of good quality, not too heavy, and has good battery life.

Bought this for some elderly family members and their friends so they could keep reading and they love it.

The best magnifying glass I bought for my husband. Good quality easy for him to read.Can highly recommend this.

I am happy with this. Although the batteries seemed to go very quickly.
