Bushnell Compact Binoculars
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Purchased the Bushnell 10×32 compact binocs for use on an Alaskan cruise in August. This item worked very well for glacier as well as wildlife viewing. They are lightweight and easy to carry. For the price this binocular was great for our purpose.
A nice toy for a child

I had a similar-design pair of decent binoculars years ago (Nikons, I think), which were, of course, more expensive. I was expecting these to be as small as those were. These are smallish but definitely not pocketable in a shirt. I was hoping to give them to a friend as an improvement on opera glasses but they are way too big and only marginally better optically.
The optical quality is about what you’d expect for $20 or so. The eyepoint is awkward, there’s a bright ring of light around the image, and there just isn’t any sharpness except in the very middle of the image. Flare characteristics are terrible. But if I were 10 years old I’d think they were pretty cool. They look reasonably tough, as long as you keep them dry.
If you want something small to really look at things try to get something at the lower end of the price scale of the name brands (Nikon Canon Vortex Olympus Pentax)
I’m going to keep these in my car’s trunk, just in case I’m desperate.
a must for bird watchers or concert goers

I purchased these binoculars for bird watching and they come in a nice compact case with a cleaning cloth. They are easy to use and bring what your looking at up so close you feel like you can touch it.
Great, even if you wear glasses!!

Everything you read in these reviews is true! They are lightweight, easy to adjust (without the manual) AND so inexpensive for the quality you get! If you wear glasses, there is a “fold down” feature on the eye pieces so you can use them WITH your glasses for crystal clear, up close viewing! They bring things in so close you don’t know what you are seeing at first!!! Terrific!
Great Buy!

I researched several different types of binoculars and found that these would be the best ones in this price range. I wanted something lightweight for travel and hiking but powerful enough to observe objects at quite a distance. These are perfect and a great value! I gave them as a gift to my significant other and he is very happy with them.
Great product and service again.

Once again, Amazon has done a great job to help me find a unique gift for my staff. I needed 6 of the same gift, suitable for men and women, in time for Christmas. The folks loved their binoculars and everything arrived promptly and safely. Thanks again.
Great Little Binoculars

I recently purchased 4 different pairs of binoculars to try out for a camp nature center. (It was easier than trying to get to our “local” Gander Mountain – 90 miles away). All were about $30, and these are definitely my favorite. These were the only compact pair that I tried, which was the winning feature. They’re small enough not to take up a lot of space in a backpack, and to my eye the optics are great and the focus is easy. I’m going to get a bunch more!
Had to return them.

One of the lens’ was out of line with the other side & also had a smudge or something on it that I couldn’t get to come off. Returned them.
Excellent

Took this to the Police concert. Worked great. Comes with a case, easy to carry, magnification allows you to see properly in any lighting conditions.
better than decent
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
Bought as a gift for my father. he needed something small and lightweight which these are. I dont know how clear and how crisp the ocular qualities are, as Ive not been the one to use them. But he hasnt had any complaints.
Good and Reasonably Priced
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
We purchased these cute binoculars for a recent trip we took. We wanted something light and compact to put into my pocket book just in case we wanted a closer look while sightseeing. They were perfect as we went to Sedona, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas and we would have definitely been disappointed without them. These binoculars had a very good view and steady feel. We got a really close look at the condors soaring over the Grand Canyon. We found the binoculars to be of good value and performance.
Bushnell Powerview folding binocular

We use the Bushnell Powerview Compact Folding Binocular when traveling in the West. I can use it easily while traveling in the car. It’s compact, so it fits easily in the console.
Not bad…not bad at all
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
I got these as a alternative to my Nikon 12×50. I wanted a more compact set to take to Arena sports and something that was just easier to carry. While no match to the Nikons these are still an excellent pair that I use on a daily bases. One thing I would change is the neck strap, its just a string that digs into the back of your neck although I think all compact binoculars have this string. Overall I would buy it again! 4 stars for the strap otherwise I”d give it 5
