Pros

It tracks magnetic north quickly. Just want to know which general direction i am facing and where the nearest road is. I use this to polar align my telescope and it works just fine.

Excellent seller and very fast delivery. Came quick and shipped properly in an envelop with added protection.

No problem. Highly recommended. Great price. Works good. Good compass.

Not a flimsy imitation, a real tool and a great addition to outdoor kit. Cheap, rugged and easy to use.



Cons

This is not a suitable compass for hunting or camping deep bush. This is a compass you could use on a well established trail only. This one does not. Not good quality.

    The printed instructions on measuring declination and navigating are ok but online videos on how to use a compass will be better for most people

    This compass is good for getting a general sense of direction but im not sure i would trust it for orienteering


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Certainly not good enough for navigation but thats not why i bought it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The liquid filling dampens the compass needle quickly so its not swinging wildly about while youre waiting for it to settle down


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It seems to be built as well as much more expensive compasses
