Customer Review: nice compact binos for the price
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

I bought these binoculars to replace a very similar set of Tasco 8x21 compact binos that I got about 10 years ago - but recently lost while hiking in eastern Arizona. I have larger binos at home, but wanted something very compact and light in weight that could be carried in my pocket or backpack. I ordered this set (Tasco 8x21) as well as a more powerful set of compact binos Barska Lucid 16x32 Compact Binocular (Camouflage) from Amazon. Delivery of both sets was very quick. This Tasco set is quite bright and clear, and the adjustment thumbwheel is tight and accurate. I like this pair for carrying in my pocket while hiking as they are just about right for spotting birds that are in bushes and treetops along the trail. Their small size makes them ideal for carrying in a jacket pocket. They're also a nice handy set to keep on the table by the window where I watch hummingbird and seed feeders. I rate them 5 stars because, for their compact size and especially at such a low price, they are really quite decent binos.

Customer Review: LOVE, LOVE LOVE!!!
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Thrilled with my purchase! Days before concert and purchased for only $11.95 with free shipping (direct from Amazon, order over $25), needed ASAP so invested in O/N. Arrived beautifully, promptly and extraordinary performance at the concert. Easy to use and even includes instructions to guide you in case you are a first time user like me. Could not ask for better quality in build or image! Exactly what I was looking for and for an even better price than expected! Compact, slim, lightweight, resistant, weatherproof... I could go on and on about its wonders but I will just tell you if your looking for compact concert binos you will not regret this investment. Read up with the manufacturer to confirm specs meet your requirements first to buy with confidence. Amazon mistakenly listed these from Bushnell when I purchased, this is Tasco's "father company", as advised on Bushnell's site but for information on this product go to [...]; both companies are new to me but I am now a solid Tasco fan/cust. and will be purchasing another set of binos for my dad's b.day next week.

Customer Review: Best value
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

This is simply the best tiny binocular that you can buy for under $20. Images are crispy, it is very easy to focus. You can also compensate the difference of vision between your eyes because you can rotate the right eyepiece. Although diameter is only 21mm, I've got better images than those that I get with another more expensive binos I have (they are 10x25). Because they are 8x21, images are very stable (when magnification goes higher, for example 10x or 12x it is very easy that with a little movement of your hands the image shakes). The material is also very comfortable and provides a very good grip. With daylight, it performs as well as my 8x42 does, this last being heavier. With less light, images are very acceptable, considering the small objective (21mm). They are also extremely light so you can take them always with you. Very good binoculars. 100% recommended.

Customer Review: Fun and small
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

Excellent buy. I received these binos a few days ago and I use them mostly for looking at animals and insects in my backyard from a safe distance. I found them surprisingly small and lightweight for the amount of magnification I got out of them. I have small hands and they are pretty much palm sized. The cups on the lens you look into can be folded and unfolded. It also comes with a little carrying pouch. The strap is thin, a bit like a shoestring attached to binoculars. I love the feature where you can adjust the eye seperately to match the other side. Make sure you read the instructions it comes with to do that correctly. One of the best low price buys I've ever made on Amazon hightly recommend these.

Customer Review: Christmas present for my 6 year-old
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars

My son received some kids' binoculars a couple of years ago and he frequently used them to look at birds (we live near a bird sanctuary and have all kinds of feathered friends flying around our neighborhood). The binoculars were very weak however, and I started looking around for better ones. I chose these and gave them to him for Christmas. When he opened them up, I thought I had made a big mistake - they seemed so delicate compared to the big plastic ones, but he loves them. They are so much stronger in magnification, they have a little neck strap, and they are just the perfect size for his little hands. Because he likes them so much he is careful with them. I am very pleased with these.
