The case is tough and seals up well. Image is bright, sharp, clean, and big! 1.4 inches is almost unheard of at 5-power, but this is an "aspheric" lens. When you hold it up right next to your eye (loupe use), the view is amazing. This is OK as a fine print viewer, and fantastic as a loupe, especially with circuitry or minerals or stamps. The price is good for this lens. Note: lens is molded plastic these days, so clean carefully. Unless you have severe vision issues, this may be too strong for fine print and restaurant use. The distortion can be quite severe at an angle. A 2x magnifier will be more tolerant and clear in that case. Fantastic loupe, though.

My husband and I are both visually impaired and we each carry one of these. He keeps it in his pocket at ALL times and I keep mine in my purse. It folds out and fits in your hand so perfectly yet it is as strong as we need. My husband was using his at a restaurant one time and a man asked him how much it cost. My husband told him he needed it, but that he could get one at a stamp shop for $10. The man dropped a $20 on the table! We buy several at a time and end up giving them away because people love them so much. Great gifts for anyone you know who needs that extra ump in vision now and again or for projects.

I have used this magnifier for over 20 years (the same one) and it is very durable and has an excellent lens. I carry it in my pocket every day and it has been dropped many times without getting even a scratch or any damage. The only wear is that it has become very smooth from all the years in my pocket. I bought a second one recently to have as a backup in case I ever lose my original one. I would be lost without this magnifier. Worth every penny!
