These headband magnifiers are excellent. They provide a range of magnifying strengths and interchangeable lenses with the ability to interchange between two strengths whilst working on a project due to the headband features. Easy to use and very comfortable to wear. Really good that it uses the AAA batteries rather than the lithium batteries as they are easier to source. Good value for money. Definitely making my cross stitching hobby easier and therefore able to progress projects quicker.

A magnifier strapped to your head
The headband is made of plasic and can make your forehead sore after a while. I also find myself getting a bit dizzy after staring through the lenses for too long. I recommend frequent breaks for both reasons.
Also, I had to insert a piece of cardboard into the battery compartment to keep the batteries from slipping out of position and the light flickering. The cover wouldn't quite close. My dad has a pair of these as well and his didn't have this issue.
The light is very useful and I find using just the single highest magnification lense is plenty. Nice to have options though. I like them.

Perfect for hands free work
This is great for my needlecrafts unlike necklace magnifiers that are difficult to keep still. Not too heavy to wear - plenty of magnification options. Light is not very strong. Good value for money would recommend

Amazing. Lightweight even with batteries and two separate lenses attached and has really improved my detail work with Sci fi models, not to mention the the off hand comment a friend said it made me look like hence the title of the review

Happy in the main
Works well, I bought this because I thought the double lense facility would be a great help. But I actually use my reading glasses & only a single lense. If there was anything I'd mention to others, I would suggest to also consider one that allows the lense to slide forward & back as having used this item I wonder if a sliding lense would have worked better than 2 separate fixed positions for my own needs. I am holding my model figures very close to my face & it can cause mistakes because I can'talways judge where my hand & brush are so occasionally catch the model with loaded brush

So helpful
Helpful magnifier. It’s a little heavy and the band can get a sweaty on the forehead but I’ll make a cotton/towelling band to make it more comfortable. Ultimately it’s very handy and I love that the magnifiers can be moved out of the way without having to remove the whole contraption. I also like the availability of the different strengths of magnification. It’s perfect being hands free.
