Well made and easy to connect to my new binoculars I treated myself to for Christmas. I haven't taken them for a walk yet but I can already tell they will be much better than the standard shoulder harness offered with binoculars.

I read a lot of reviews and did a lot of research on this item and other similar items before deciding to purchase the 15x70 Celestron Skymaster Binoculars. This is not the first Celestron product I've purchased and I'm always very happy with all their products. I was able to get a few minutes of use out of these just in time for the annual Persied meteor shower. The binoculars were not as heavy as I expected and I was able to use them for brief periods (sitting in a lawn chair) without a tripod. I did not experience any colmination problems as others have reported and I suspect their problems may be due to their pupillary distance instead. I have a rather narrow pupillary distance (distance between my pupils) and this caused me to have to adjust the binoculars to an almost uncomfortable position to eliminate the double image and optical aberrations that result in improper alignment of the eyepieces with the eyes. One other issue I had is with the left eye focus adjustment. It's not a problem with the binoculars but rather a problem with my eye sight. I normally use my binoculars and telescopes without my glasses on but I could not adjust the left eyepiece enough to correct my poor vision in that eye. I was able to put my glasses back on and adjust the rubber cups to allow for viewing with my glasses on and everything worked fine. I would also add that this is the best pair of binoculars I've ever used with my glasses. Usually, viewing binoculars with glasses is very awkward but these worked great. I'm looking forward to using these more.p.s.- For those of you trying to decide on buying binoculars or a telescope to start a new astronomy hobby, my personal recommendation is to start with binoculars. They are quick and easy to use until you are sure you really want to invest in a good $400+ telescope. Even after I forked out $1200 for a high quality telescope, I still used my binoculars almost as often. Especially for comets and star clusters.

I bought these binoculars to do some stargazing, and I haven’t been disappointed. The moon especially comes in crisp and clear, and I find the weight of the binoculars quite comfortable. I’ve recommended these to others since my purchase. For the price, they’re fantastic.

Love this scope. This is my second one. My first one got misplaced and I can't live without having this handy for bird watching. It's small enough to put in my pocket and the 12x zoom beats any pair of binoculars. Picture is very, very clear. Unfortunately since the original company got bought out by Wingspan, it doesn't come with the little tripod anymore, but didn't really use that anyway.

I love these binoculars! They are gimongous! Great price and great optics. I managed to catch a retreating pack of coyotes up on the hill (in broad daylight!), a red-tailed hawk in a sublime glide spree and capture the details of a U.S. Army CH-47 Chinook helicopter criss-crossing the sky! I cannot wait to check out the fall sky tonight! I also got the tripod but I have not tried it out yet. My only complaints are: a.) the flimsy holding strap--which it is great for a tiny, pocket-type binoculars; b.) in the same vein, the carrying case is kind of lame--made of the same material used to make insulated lunch bags. These binoculars deserve a sturdier (hard-plastic) case than these over-sized lunch bag! But, otherwise, a great investment. Very please.

Compatible with my binoculars perfectly and it;s exactly what i needed to stabilize my image.

I love the size of these binoculars. They fit in my desk and are easy to grab when I need them.

I got this for my 1 yr old. He really likes the sounds of the animals some more than others. He just gets frustrated that he can't turn the last page and it's stuck to the back cover of the book.
