daylight24 Table Top Full Page Magnifier LED Desk Lamp, Silver - Ideal for Reading, Hobby and Crafting with LED Light Strip for Optimal Visibility, 10 inch (202055-05)

This magnifier is not the cheapest but has the best visibility among many magnifiers I bought from amazon.com with superb clearity. This is almost like a glass quality PVC magnifier. Good dimensions to read a book or view your mobile phone. Your can rotate the magnifier plate easily which is great. Has a LED light, not very practical with the devices as it reflects and makes reading difficult. Very strong and solid body easy to move it with one hand and adjust. You might need to adjust it more then its position and with a box or a book underneath to set the focus right according to your own reading comfort. Overall it is a great magnifier and is a part of my daily life. I am planning to buy aonther for my other room as well.

Purchased for my mother with macular degeneration. She says it allows her to read and write checks again without struggling. She loves it! Also wanted to recognize their above and beyond customer service. Mom immediately lost the screw which adjusts the magnifier and of course couldn’t see to find it. Thanks to Renee Poor with whom I corresponded, it was replaced very quickly. Definitely a great purchase!

Given the 10x6" plastic-framed alternatives (that I also tried), I'm pleased. The LEDs seem to be maybe double the brightness of the $16 12-LED 10x6" plastic-framed 3x Fresnel magnifiers offered AND there's 20% more viewable area here. The built-in LEDs are okay in a pinch, but I prefer an articulated-arm desk lamp instead of, or augmenting the built-in LEDs. Additionally, given the three-sided rimless design, more desk lamp illumination hits the page 'cause there's no black frame blocking that part of the light cone. This one is about 4x the money of the $16 framed alternatives, but it feels like a solution, where the cheaper ones feel sort of claustrophobic, hampered by the thick tunnel sides. If you can afford it, buy this one over the framed ones.

It came fast and perfect shape. I love it

The sturdy heavy base that is situated to the side of screen is huge improvement over cheap folding plastic legs, but screen is still lenticular plastic (the stuff with circular grooves on one side), which is impossible to clean, and which causes a highly distorted image if you aren’t looking at it from directly above. Biggest problem though is batteries instead of charger...light not very bright even with brand new batteries (which didn’t even last a weekend), I think for the price it should definitely have USB charging cord.

I just cannot find a combination where I can light a book and see text thru the magnifier. I am a big guy (6'3"). Tried using the light only. I like the LED light for reading but the light is so weak that you have to have the light right over the book and I keep knocking it when I try to flip a page.

I purchased this for my sister, now in her mid 80s, who has loss of vision clarity that has come with age. She'd given up her subscription to a favorite magazine, but now with this unit is able to once again read printed material and I'll be renewing her prescription for her favorite magazine. She commented that she appreciates that with the built in light beneath the lens there's no glare/reflection from the surface. Time will tell how sturdy the magnifying aid turns out to be.

Yes, the LED lights produced an annoying ring on the lens. The Cure - Add a glare visor 10" long x 3" wide duct tape flap!!! Fold the duct tape leaving 1/2" stick to attach to the bottom of the lamp area. Walla! No glare!!! I suggest the manufacturer incorporate this into the design. MY FEE? $50.00 bucks for the cost of the lamp. 'NO WORRIES, MATE!'
