Plastic Individual Magnifiers
Review star icon Review star icon Review star icon Review star icon Review star icon May 16, 2019
As most reviewers commented, the price is right!!! We first purchased these for our CSI chemical forensic events. The program is targeted for younger kids. Because they are plastic we are able to put them into their hands to allow the kids to view for themselves and comment on what they see, not what we tell them what they should see. Although the magnification is not huge, the kids are still able to see many things about the item they are viewing. Once shown the greater magnification lens on the magnifiers, the kids are able to see finer aspects of the item they are viewing. Great for our CSI program. If you are working with young audiences, I highly recommend that you have a set of these on hand. Keep the plastic bags they come in. You can store them safely without scratching,

I am so glad, that I stumbled across this Website. I wish I would have found this Website, before going to a Watch Repair and buying a too expensive Magnifying Glass. Love the quality of the 10 I ordered from this Website.

I thought plastic magnifiers would get scratched so quickly that they wouldn't hold up for more than a couple of uses. These stand up well and really offer good power of magnification.

This looks like a good tool but I would recommend adding a diverging lens so students could see the effects of this type of lens.
