Good buy not Great |

| This is a good but not superior quality product. I have an old pair of binoculars from[...], handed down from my father that have higher quality optics than these - at least they produce clearer images. Also these are so light it makes me wonder about the nature and quality of the materials. I guess I am old school when it comes to judging quality. On the other hand I will use these a lot because they are perfect for viewing birds and scenery from my back yard. I would recommend them to anyone for general "all purpose" binocular use. |

| My wife and I wanted a second pair of binoculars to take on a recent trip to Alaska, so I bought these. The size and optical power were perfect for our purpose. However, although I would not call these binoculars bulky, I would not recommend them to anyone who expects or intends to carry them in a pocket or purse. These binoculars were, for us, an outstanding value. |

It was what I was looking for. |

| I can check on the horses, cows, geese, deer, and other wildlife from my back porch. With the binoculars it's as if I standing beside them. The best thing is not having to reset the focus and the clarity of the lens. I see very clear and sharp every time I bring them to my eyes. |

| I have a similar pair of Steiner binoculars and have enjoyed them for many years. They sit in the bottom of my canoe when I am paddling with no worries of water contacting them. Great product and I anticipate many years out of this pair as well. I needed another pair for friends to use. |

Great value. |

| I shopped online for a week looking for the best price on 8x30 Steiners. [$] I have never had a decent pair of binos before. The Steiners are great for what I use them for. They do have some problems with stray light at night so stargazers might want to look somewhere else. |

great binos for the price |

| I am a bow hunter and light weight binos are a must these are great. I have compared these to more expensive brands and these hold their own. In some cases these stieners take in more light. The thing I like most is the one time focus from 20 yds to infinity. |

| very very clear, great detail. not thrilled abould focusing in close - we have several bird feeders within 5 yards of my windows and this doesn't focus well that close. but they're so good i'll keep them anyway. out in the wild i wouldn't need anything for that close generally; |

| Nice to find a great price on a pair of Steiners. Will use them allot more often due to their auto focus feature, which essentially means just pick them up and scan. |

| You can really appreciate the quality of the lenses in low light/night conditions. Not the best or most expensive binoculars I own, but a great pair for the price |
