Large Lens Head Magnifier Headband Magnifying Glass with Light Hands Free 8 LED Magnifier with White and Yellow Light for Close Work, Crafts, Hobby, Reading, Repairing, Sewing, Jewelry

These work perfectly and are super comfortable. Just what I needed for that close up detail work.

This is my third lighted magnifier so far, and it the manufacturers seem to have thought of just about everything. I don't go extremely easy on these devices, and previous products I've bought from Amazon both had some sort of annoying issues, such as:1. Clips holding lenses in did not hold2. Glasses-type magnifier was too heavy and the provided headstrap would not stay on the ear pieces3. Bad wiring on glasses-type magnifierThis one has several features which prevent the above problems:It goes completely around the head like some other models, and has a sturdy push/pull knob at the back to lock your size. Pull the knob and turn to adjust. The headband is cushioned. This might get dirty, eventually though, and the cushions are not removable. You can probably detach the band from the rest of the unit though and let the whole assembly soak in some soapy water, rinse, squeeze out the water and allow to dry.The front of the unit has two clip-in slots for the provided lenses, and it comes with five different lenses of varying magnifications. With two installed, you can flip up the front lens and only view through the rear, or you can flip the front lens down and look through both, giving you a combined magnification which is stronger than the others on their own. There isn't a way to only view through the forward lens only. You can also adjust the two lenses forward and backward (toward and away from your face), in case you need to. Viewing through the lenses is better with this device than some others where the lenses are separated by a divider, or are circular and fit close to the eyes. Usually with those other designs you can't view what you are working on through both eyes simultaneously without some sort of weird image displacement going on. This could just be my eyes though, as I was diagnosed with a wandering eye that causes double-vision at a young age.The light section is actually a module you can remove from the rest of the device, and the battery compartment is at the bottom of the assembly. You get two light tones, one white and the other orange-ish, and you can mix the two as well. There are also two brightness settings.Overall, the unit is sturdy, and no pieces become dislodged or move when setting the unit down in what I would call a normal way, unlike other options. The headband mounts connecting to the front portion of the unit have the expected adjustment knobs for adjusting the angle of the lighting unit up and down and tightening it in place. There are also hinges on each side of the band to make it more flexible.So far the battery life has been good.

I like that you can detach the light. The unit is fairly heavy and wants to slide down. I have a small head, though. It's going to take some getting used to. It comes with several lenses in a cute little plastic box.

like item except for the light which stopped working after 3 uses

I just got this so still have some minor adjusting to do while I get used to it. The multiple incremental magnifying lenses are great once you get the distance from your current glasses set. and the sliding holder makes that pretty easy. Only short side is that I wish the light was a little brighter but I knew that going in, so no complaints there the light is bright enough to focus on the object at hand which is carving and scroll sawing. Well thought out piece of equipment now we will see how long it lasts!

Firstly, these are good magnifiers if you are holding items to be magnified no more than 4-4.5" from the lens. If that is your need then you will definitely benefit from the multiple lenses capability & the light function.However, if your need to is magnify something about 14” from the lens(es), e.g., in your lap such as crocheting or macrame, the project will be too far away from the lens to magnify. (which is why I needed it.)Additionally, it was a not easy to insert the lenses in the headgear & pull the lenses out- doable definitely, but not w/ease. (Perhaps it gets easier with use & time, though.)It is also good to note that the lenses come w/a storage container, which is nice, but if you want to leave the lenses in the headgear between uses, they would not be protected as the box it comes in does not support this.The comfort level while I was trying it did seem to be pretty high as you can adjust the tightness at the back & the sides. I did not wear it for an extensive amount of time as it did not meet my needs, but I don't think comfort will be a concern for anyone.

The 5 magnifying glasses are perfect., the thinnest one 3:5 x is for distance ,(anything far away ) , and the thickest one 1.0 is for anything that needs to be very close , …is perfect !!The lights take 3 triple AAA batteries!! And has 3 settings for each one., downfall …The head set is weird … when you find the right fit , you have to push it in, to lock it, and pull out , to re-adjust it.I highly recommend this product !!

I needed a magnifying headband since my eyes are getting older ☹️. After searching for a while I found what I believed would work, and ordered it. That one never arrived. After a call to customer service, the item was canceled and I found this one online and ordered it. I'm very pleased. This magnifying headband is actually better for me than the first one, and it has two more lenses, and is more versatile during use. So, even though there was a snafu with the first order, I'm very pleased. Additionally, this headband has two mounting slots for the lenses. You can "mix and match" and get more levels of magnification than just with single lenses. I'm pleased.
