Beyond the shipping, the monocular itself is spectacular. I bought it for use hiking, camping, and everyday use, thinking it would be more portable than binoculars, and so far, it has not failed to deliver. The optics are very clear and crisp. The objective opening is large enough to let in plenty of light. The eye relief is useful, so I can use the monocular with or without my glasses, even if it doesn't stay folded back very well. I was very satisfied with the magnification power- enough to show the image very clearly without too much shake- and I'm glad I didn't select a higher magnification- this is plenty.
The grip is comfortable, it's aesthetically pleasing. I had a problem where if you pull the eyepiece out it doesn't focus, and it was confusing until I popped it back into place and was able to focus. I believe the idea is to be able to lock a focus in place if you like that focus.
The case is nicely padded on the inside, and I was glad it came with lens covers, though the eyepiece cover kept slipping off as I pulled out of the case. The lens cloth is of the cheapest quality- I'd say just use one intended for glasses, as this one is literally falling apart. The case came with a small tear in the seam, but it doesn't affect the protective advantage of the object.
Overall, I was extremely pleased with the quality of the product and would definitely recommend it.
I would highly recommend this product for it's quality build, good optics, and price-value.
Nope Didn't happen.
Either these things leave the factory pre-fogged, or the lenses are extremely poor quality. Poor focusing and unable to bring anything into clear view at any distance. Thanks Amazon for the great return policy, because they are going back today.

Pratique mais pour ce prix il ne faut pas s'attendre à un téléscope.
Très sensible au mouvement, faible champs de vision si on cherche pas à regarder loin dans la profondeur
