"I ordered binoculars with 12 x 50 wide-angle strength, and the box they came in said they were 12 x 50, but the binoculars themselves were only 10 x 50. I kept them anyway because they are stronger than I thought they would be and are quite fine for my use. However, I think the box should match the product and want to call this to your attention."

"Pretty good optics at this price. Keep one in my truck and the other at my port-house. Overstock describes them well and got exactly what I expected. The 50mm lens provides a nice wide angle view. Going to purchase a set for my son to use when we go out birdwatching together."

"These are very middle off the road, in fact possibly sub-par. More prone to double vision than other name brands I've used, seems to work best with one eye closed. Had I known, I'd have bought a telescope instead.
oh well...

"I bought two pair of these binoculars, one for my boat and one for my lake home. These rugged & dependable binoculars are great for all-weather and use on the water. The optics distinguish themselves at night with excellent light gathering ability. Would definitely reccommend!"

"These are a great value and you get the clarity, enhanced vision and reduced glare as well. They have a bit of a blue tint to their view, which really clears things up and you can see much more detail and further away than many other brands. I researched these at other sites and the best overall buy was right here. As usual! Also at night you can actually see pretty darn good! For not being night vision binoculars, they sure do well! Primo!"

"I gave these as a Christmas Gift to my Dad.
He liked them very much - the lenses are tinted - so they are for outdoor use primarily - but should work fine for dome football game as well. The Field of Vision is Wide - so that's the big plus. - Good Price for the Quality. Arrived in time for Christmas, thanks Overstock.
