Surprisingly, they arrived before Santa, and he loves them. Great product, great value. I purchased this for my husband as a last minute Xmas gift (he just HAD to have binoculars, which he announced last minute, on 12/21.). They are small enough that they're able to fit in his pocket, yet strong enough to see pretty far into the distance, with good detail.
Other ushers have admired them and I am ordering two more Busnell 8x21 model for friends who use the theatre. Good job Bushnell. The magnification produced by these compact binoculars did the perfect job. The ability to see the performers in close up detail from the last row, or the upper balcony, or even standing by the back wall caused me to rejoice in my choice. I picked them initially to fit in my pocket as I ushered at a large multi theatre complex in my city. These busnell 8x21 model binoculars have been my sidekick at mutilple theatre experiences over the last 15 years. They needed to fit in a blazer pocket so that I could do my assigned job , slide into a theatre seat and be ready to watch the performance. I have reveled in the quality , magnification and compact size of these binoculars.
I like the quality of the binoculars, and the compact size makes them easy to carry.
Lots clearer and easier to focus than the rugged exposure one. And it is really great as others had reviewed. My son also gave it 5 stars. I bought my son a 8x21 rugged exposure binoculars from Big 5 for Xmas, but its quality was terrible. One of the eye piece fell off right away, so I ordered this Bushnell from Amazon as a replacement based on the superb reviews. The built quality is also solid.
For the money, they're a great buy, but I regret not going for the Bushnell Nature View ones that are supposed to magnify light to look at feathers and such. I would say these are a good secondary pair of binoculars to leave in your car or ones to bring when you don't want to worry about ruining them. I got these along with a bird identifier book to start watching birds around where I live. I also wear glasses and they don't comply with those to the best extent.
