I researched several different types of binoculars and found that these would be the best ones in this price range. I wanted something lightweight for travel and hiking but powerful enough to observe objects at quite a distance. These are perfect and a great value! I gave them as a gift to my significant other and he is very happy with them.

Purchased the Bushnell 10x32 compact binocs for use on an Alaskan cruise in August. This item worked very well for glacier as well as wildlife viewing. They are lightweight and easy to carry. For the price this binocular was great for our purpose.
Great Little Binoculars

I recently purchased 4 different pairs of binoculars to try out for a camp nature center. (It was easier than trying to get to our "local" Gander Mountain - 90 miles away). All were about $30, and these are definitely my favorite. These were the only compact pair that I tried, which was the winning feature. They're small enough not to take up a lot of space in a backpack, and to my eye the optics are great and the focus is easy. I'm going to get a bunch more!
Not bad...not bad at all

I got these as a alternative to my Nikon 12x50. I wanted a more compact set to take to Arena sports and something that was just easier to carry. While no match to the Nikons these are still an excellent pair that I use on a daily bases. One thing I would change is the neck strap, its just a string that digs into the back of your neck although I think all compact binoculars have this string. Overall I would buy it again! 4 stars for the strap otherwise I"d give it 5
Good and Reasonably Priced

We purchased these cute binoculars for a recent trip we took. We wanted something light and compact to put into my pocket book just in case we wanted a closer look while sightseeing. They were perfect as we went to Sedona, Grand Canyon and Las Vegas and we would have definitely been disappointed without them. These binoculars had a very good view and steady feel. We got a really close look at the condors soaring over the Grand Canyon. We found the binoculars to be of good value and performance.
