Pirate Monocular Telescope for Kids & Adults, Handheld Collapsible Brass Telescope 25x30 Zoomable Portable Pirate Spyglass for Cruise Ship Travel Watching Games Hiking Hunting and More

Never thought I would be reviewing a telescope, but here we are. This is all my son wanted for Christmas and he was SO HAPPY when he opened. It comes in an adorable leather case and works so well. The quality is great too.

I took this on an Alaskan Cruise and used it all the time to look at objectson the horizon, wildlife, etc! It was lightweight and the optics were surprisingly strong! I was disappointed that the belt strap broke immediately! The cheap rivets pulled easily out of the leater case. Good thing. I probably would have dropped it because I planned to keep it on my belt. I rigged a carabiner on the hand strap and was able to carry it that way. Still that was not enough to give it a bad rating. I would buy it again. Just be prepared to fix your own strap.

We used this as a prop and it is sturdy and expands and collapses well.

Pretty good quality, got the fact that it's a toy. It really does work, with a bit of tinkering and following the directions for how to use it. My kiddo loves it.

It is too blurred to make an image, so seeing an object in the distance is impossible.

Really nice for the price. My son loved it! He used this more than any other gift for Xmas. Buy it… they’ll love it.

I bought these on a whim for my brother and I as gag gifts. We just wanted to be silly and use them on boats that passed us on the river to draw a laugh. Well they did, and we were surprised by just how awesome these actually are. Certainly better than I imagined at the time of buying them.First off, these are not spotting scopes or high magnification. These were around 20 bucks each, so I was expecting toys. These could be great toys, but they are useful for adults they are so well built.The telescope has a great fit an finish to it, it is real metal with a nice brass finish, wrapped in what I suspect is faux leather. Very pleasing to hold and use, and share with others. Pulling it out to full length is a very satisfying experience, the telescoping pieces fit extremely well. The eye piece/end tip screws in and out slightly to offer legitimate focus control. The overall magnification is not much, but it is definitely magnifying.If you are having trouble- the hardest part is holding it steady at the right distance from your eye, everyone is different, some of my friends have it very close to their eye and others hold it a ways away.This is a perfect product. It does what it should do, it is well made, and is enjoyable to use for a great price.

The inside parts came lose almost immediately. Wish I could return but I waited to long. I can’t even put it back together myself. I just wanted something realistic for my child to play with that you could see something a little closer. It’s just junk.
