Excellent 10x Magnifying Glass!
This is an excellent 10x magnifying glass! It is 2 inches (50 mm) in diameter. Considering that magnifying glasses get smaller in diameter as their power increases, this is very big in diameter.
It is clear and does not need to be held close when reading small print and this allows you to use it in regular light. It easily fits in a shirt pocket if you like to sit a...

Insten 10x Handheld Magnifer Glass, 50 mm
The only reason I purchased this item was to be able to read the ID number on my driver's license which the NYDMV required on a certain application.
I had a 2x magnifier which I could barely read so I purchased this one.
I was disappointed because I had expected the magnification to be greater.

Too small, online display did not make it clear how small the Magnifier Glass really is.

small but powerful
I got this magnifier online after I couldn't find one more powerful than x2 at the store. It's plenty powerful but also pretty small. I think it will work for my purpose just fine since all I really need it for is reading the tiny directions that have become so popular these days.

10X Magnifying Glass
Delivery was great--glass was a bit smaller than I thought it would be. Good quality though.

VERY small
The magnifying glass itself is about 2" in diameter so you better only want to be viewing about 2 words at a time. The entire thing could fit in my front pocket comfortably. Only good if you plan to use it 2-3x a year, if you see yourself using a magnifying glass quite often I would get something bigger.

Handheld Magnifier Glass, 50mm
It is smaller than I expected, but on the other hand it is very convenient to slip in a drawer. The magnifier really enhances and it is easy to grip.

Do NOT buy
Try number one-crushed in shipping-poor packing.
Try number two-lens not straight in metal ring (presure fit, no way of fixing) and water in handle causing rust.
Second look at the magnifying glass--even though it is a 10x magnifying glass, it makes object look about twice as large as real life. Then when compared to my 5x magnifying glass, the object are only about ha...
