Tasco Essentials 8x21 Binocular (Black): Customer Reviews & Product Details

These little binoculars are a great value and very well-constructed. I purchased them specifically for concert and theatre use, which they are well-suited for. I wear eyeglasses and find the binoculars compatible with glasses. The binoculars came in a small paperboard box (about 4.25" x 2.25"). Included are a felt-like carrying case, a neck strap (thin cord) and a lens cleaning cloth. I'm very pleased with the binoculars and plan to purchase more as gifts. They arrived at my door in two days (with free shipping!) with my amazon prime membership.

CLear depiction of object viewed. Very small . All prior good reviews were supported. There is a building going up near my job and I can see them working clearly. I intend to take them on my Costa Rica bird watching trip.

According to most of the other reviews, these are a great little pair of binoculars for the money. However, I found it very difficult to get them in focus because I wear glasses. Maybe I just don't kow how to adjust them properly, but I found them rather inadequate. Better instructions for novice users would have been a lot more helpful. I bought them for use at the opera, but I'm just not sure they will be very helpful.

For the price, this is a great little pair of binoculars. I bought them to take to nighttime concerts, and have been very happy with how well I can see the stage under low-light conditions. They are very compact (they fold in), and come in a handy carrying case that can hook onto a belt or slip into a pocket.

within an hour of using them at a concert, one lens was always out of focus.
