Pros & Cons
Pros
Lenses have a green / blue coating front and rear. Little color distortion and haze, but sharpness is more important.
Binoculars work great. Great for the price. Just as advertised. Fast shipping. Very fast shipping.
They match or surpass the ones we used in the military. I like full size binoculars, because i can hold them steadier. Dark foam insulation stripping, the type that you peel away paper backing to expose contact adhesive.
These are exceptional binoculars for backyard birdwatchers. Comes with shoulder bag (black neoprene-esque) and neck-strap to attach. Tripod attachment hole. I have some barska, carson and others, but these simmons have been my go to for scouting and h... Read More
Cons

For the price i’m very impressed they are on par with optics 34x the cost
Shipping
Really nice for the price and shipping
Competitiveness
Main use is for archery tournaments hunting
I have some barska carsons and others but these simmons have been my go to for scouting and hunting trips

Protruding away from the lens face of the piece
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
There are about five nearby street lights and a sign light that obstructs my view of the stars when viewed through the binoculars
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
The insulation effectively blocked out all of the light from the inside portion of the viewers but there was still considerable light streaming in from the outer sides
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
After adjusting the focus of the lens to the stars and the right hand lens which adjusts independently to match the focus of the left side the stars appeared tack sharp

I came back to the table and cut two half moon shaped pieces

Careful not to disturb the focus settings i attached the two curved pieces to the outer sides of the eye pieces

You have to place your eyes pretty near the lens to see the whole viewable circle
