HQRP New Generation Opera Glasses Binocular 3 x 25 w/Crystal Clear Optic (CCO) & Built-in Extendable Handle, Burgundy with Gold Trim

These opera glasses seem very solid and well-made. After figuring out the focusing mechanism, I have had no problem using them and they look very classy. They'll serve me well next month in Vienna.

My husband is a disabled vet and we have to sit in the wheelchair row at the Performing Arts theatre. This is the last row. We have difficulty seeing some of the details on stage. I found these Opera Glasses. They are very pretty. They have a handle to hold them to your eyes. While at a performance, I did have to tighten the handle a couple of times. Other reviews state the black leather bag they come in has an odor. That is true. Kind of like a new car smell. It was noticeable but not offense to us. I believe the bag aroma will go away with time. I also purchased the 4X30 Gold Opera Glasses. After trying both pair, we liked the 4X30 better and I ordered another pair of the 4X30. Comparing both pair. These are lighter. However this pair magnifies 3X25. That may be enough for most people. Our eyes used the 4X30 better and we could see more detail with the 4X30. The 4X30 comes with an attached chain which allowed us not to hold the glasses while not in use.

I will be using these at the Eras tour and I’m so excited. They are cute and they work well!

These look very elegant and add style to any outing to the theatre or opera. The hardware used is plastic and can feel a little cheap. But overall a good purchase.

These looked and felt like a quality product. But, they didn't work. I never had a focused view. I used the adjustment knob, but it only turned and turned, nothing ever came in focus. I was so disappointed. I bought them to see my first Opera on Broadway in NY and ended up using the magnifying glass app on my phone.

You get what you pay for, I suppose. I could not get the lenses to focus, nor could I get the handle to stay straight. I return them about 10 minutes after I received them.

Ordered this as a gift. They are simply gorgeous and they do work well! Item comes in a cardboard box with a leather drawstring pouch and cleaning cloth. I threw away the box and all the plastic bags that everything comes in, wrapped the glasses in satin (from Hobby Lobby) and bought a "mini wood chest" (again, hobby lobby, $5) and put them in that for the gift. Much better presentation. I did notice the red part of the handle needed to be tightened after we played with them for a few minutes. No big deal. Very happy, and very happy with the company's customer service. Package was delayed through no fault of theirs (winter storm, package was held up in my town) yet the company reimbursed my delivery fee. Very kind of them! Buying a second pair for me!

Like it has a handle, making it less obtrusive for persons behind me at concerts.

Exactement ce que je cherchais

Bought these as a gift for my sister who took them to Venice, Italy for the opera La Traviata. She loves them.Thank you, Amazon !Lisa Benedix, Grand Lake NB

Exactly what I needed very compact and easy to assemble for viewing, strength/distance is not bad for the price.

Very disappointing.

One pair required the light unit to be reattached to the glasses. It, the light, came loosely mounted and fell off and it was required to be remounted and with a little screw driver to tighten the screw that held the light in place.
