Tools and Hardware Reviews of 6X POCKET MAGNIFIER only 1/2" thick + PLASTIC SHEATH
Customer Review: Not as described
Summary: 2 Stars
I am disappointed because I didn't get what I was expecting. I purchased this 6X magnifier because I already have a very handy 3X pocket magnifier and a better quality 8X loupe (for flatwork; I used to proof printing with it) and wanted something in-between to view coins. This seemed like the perfect choice. However, the magnifier is 2 1/2" in diameter, not 2" as described, which makes it, for me, too large and bulky to be a lightweight pocket magnifier (glass is heavy!). But more problematic is that I can't see any difference in magnification between my 3X and this one--it might be 4X at the most, but I doubt it.
The balance of the magnifier in the hand is not great but I wouldn't expect much for $4.99. Overall, it's an inexpensive magnifier suitable, I'd say, for reading maps but I am disappointed that it's not the advertised size and stronger.
The service from hobbytoolsupply was excellent; it was shipped and received--across country--within two days from my order.
