 Great kids binoculars for the price with a few reservations, July 25, 2009
By Electrical Engineer who loves S.. (Baltimore, MD)
|
|
My 3 year old son really wanted a pair of his own binoculars. I wanted to get him something that looked just like an adult pair, but was a little more durable and less expensive. I also wanted ones with decent magnification (nothing that was obviously just a toy). These binoculars fit the bill quite well. They cost about the same as a toy, but have 5x magnification, glass lenses, and look real.
They are reasonably sturdy, and can take being dropped quite well. My only real complaint is that the lenses seem to not be attached too well. My son was able to get the entire lense out of one eyepiece (glass and plastic shell), and the rubber cup off of the other. I will have to glue them back on to keep them from falling off.
Also, the case they come with is useless (thin nylon). I threw that out immediately.
But overall a good value, and I would buy them again.

 Excellent Binoculars, May 10, 2008
By Linda Papargiris
|
|
My niece and nephew enjoyed these realistic binoculars. Outer casing very comfortable to hold and visibility through the lens was great not grainy like the plastic lens. I was so happy to find them on Amazon and they shipped very quickly.

 3rd time a charm?, January 19, 2010
By Deb Ram
|
|
My son received these binocs as a gift. He was very disappointed that he couldn't see very well out of them. After looking over them, adjusting, etc. my husband and I determined they indeed were defective. The left eyepiece was blurry and could not be fixed. I called Amazon, who very promptly sent us another pair and allowed me to return the defective one. The second pair they sent was much better but the pouch that the glasses go in is WAY too small and they can't begin to fit in it. (The first pair had a case that fit fine) Since it is just the pouch, I don't want to go through having to send these back as well. I was not impressed with this company.

Good, but not great., February 8, 2010
By Dawg Fan (Atlanta, GA)
|
|
Got these for my four year old and he's already managed to break them. Thought these would be better than the other really cheap ones we previously got him, but alas they are not. In addition, they are really low powered not very good.

 Lousy!, January 9, 2010
By B. White
|
|
This is a very cheaply made pair of binoculars. My son (age 6) used them once or twice and they were already falling apart. The lense came off and was rattling about inside the binoculars. I would definitely NOT recommend purchasing this product.

Review of Childrens Binoculars, October 12, 2009
By Richard I. Pietz
|
|
This item was bought as a birthday gift for a seven year old grandson. The family likes being outdoors and does a lot of camping. The report received from his parents is that our grandson really likes the binoculars. They are lightweight and easy to use. I cannot report on their durability since he has had the binoculars only for a month so far.

Love This!, January 5, 2010
By A. Salemi (Rancho, CA)
|
|
My 5 year old wanted this for Christmas so he could "look at birds". I figured "why not, they aren't that expensive". He loved them and played with them quite a bit. He loved how big they made things that were close by and how things far away seemed closer. I like that they are of good quality, a couple of the adults commented that they were as clear as the binoculars they paid a lot more money for. It comes with a lens wipe and a carry case. I really thought this was a great deal and seems to be of a higher quality than some kids binoculars. I would recommend this to anyone. I had no problems with the sellers and the product arrived on time and in great condition.

By Kent Albert (Wyoming)

My grandson (5) was at my house and found some binoculars laying around and had a blast with them and said he would like some for his birthday. So from advice from my daughter I purchased these and she said they quality is pretty good. My grandson said he loves them. I have not seen them myself but from what I have been told It looks like they are pretty good.

By Uia

Got this for christmas for my active and curious 3 year old son and it was a hit.
The overall product is great for the money. It looks more like a real one. Had my reservations when i saw the packaging because it looks like if it was printed on a bad quality printer and paper other than that very pleased with the product

Lens came out but we still love it, September 3, 2011
By Sgtseatbelt (NJ)
|
|
I read through the reviews before buying the product and went ahead and bought it in the hopes that I wouldn't have any problems. When I opened the packet to inspect it immediately the right lens was wobbly and the rubber cover came off when I tugged at it which in turn allowed the lens to come off completely. I was going to send it back and order another one but it wouldn't have arrived in time for my daughter's birthday. Instead I just got the super glue out and glued both the lens and the rubber cover back on. Works fine. Looking back, I'm glad the lens was wobbly at the beginning. This way I was able to fix it good. If it had been fine perhaps the lens would have fallen out and gotten lost a week later and we would have just thrown them away. Now I'm just second guessing whether I should have pulled apart the left side and super glued that before anything went wrong. For $12 and a little super glue I am very happy with the purchase.
As for the quality, I can definitely see the magnification and I'm sure my daughter will enjoy the product...birthday tomorrow.

Sturdy binoculars for kids, August 14, 2011
By RGW
|
|
While the magnification is not strong, for a 5 year old - these work great. Been dropped a few times - no problems. The neck cord did pull out - but we put it back and tied knots on ends to keep it inserted. Good value for price.

Nice, affordable binoculars for children, July 31, 2011
By jalmo
|
|
Bought two pairs for my 2 and 4 year old daughters. They are easy to use and the kids love them. Reasonably well-constructed and real--not just a toy. As for other reviewers' comments/criticisms of their relatively low magnification, it would be hard for a small child to find and focus on objects with a high-powered small binocular. We are very happy with these...

 Doesn't really make things look closer, June 28, 2011
By leslie (nc)
|
|
I bought these for my 3-year old nephew. Granted, he has a hard time using binoculars because he's young, but I've looked through this and they don't seem to really make anything look bigger. I feel like I'm looking through a tube with a piece of glass on the end. I'm already planning on getting him a better pair when he gets a little bit older.

disappointed, May 26, 2011

Unfortunately, we were unable to use these binoculars for my granddaughter. We did not acheive a single visual field with them and there did not seem to be much magnification.

Kids are fighting over these, May 19, 2011
By MB
|
|
I got one of these for my kids to share when we go to the park. We are also learning about birding and these have helped us spot birds from far away. These binoculars aren't top of the line, but they do a decent job of helping us see birds from a distance. My kids all want one for their own now! They fight over this one. It works with younger kids as well as adults. My 4 year old can use them. It's pretty simple to use. This has helped my kids become real nature lovers. If we go to the park, we always grab these too. I think the price was a good one for these as well. Great product and helpful in teaching about birds.

Great for kids, May 9, 2011
By T. R.

Bought these binoculars for our 5 year old daughter and she loves them. They look real enough to keep kids' interest but are still durable enough to handle drops. The zoom is only 5X but they do work great.

Carson Hawk Kid's Binoculars, February 22, 2012
By karen k
|
|
My 2.5yr old grandson wantted binoculars just like his dad's, these carson's hawk kid's binoculars have been the perfect match for his little hands and big imagination. Since receiving them three weeks ago he has not tried of them. He carries them everywhere he goes, and they have held up well. The carrying case they came with fell apart on the fisrt day, but the binoculars are tuff and hardy for active little adventurist.

Great "first time" binoculars for kids!, February 20, 2012
By ejones
|
|
These binoculars are good "starters" for kids to learn with. I give them a high rating for kids, but not for adults. I was a little disappointed that the strap - which is basically just a string - came off within the first five minutes of me trying them out. I had a devilish time getting it strung back through. For the price it's a good a deal for young explorers who are nature viewing.

Perfect for young kids, February 6, 2012
By BeachMomma (Atlanta, GA)
|
|
These were a Christmas gift for my son and he loves them! He used to play with an adult pair but they broke and were too wide for his eyes. These are perfect and he loves using them. I like how they don't look like little kid ones either because it makes him think that he is using the adult version! Great product!

We purchased these for our four year old grandson for Christmas. Both he and and our two year old granddaughter absolutely loved them from the moment they saw them. Just the right size for these little ones and very realistic. They play with them all the time. A nice quality for the price.
