Excellent for first time user of binoculars! Me!
rating: 5
After visiting two local stores to apply "hands on" to different binoculars, and after returning one pair, I took the better part of a day researching binoculars. My sister gave me the specs for her $300+ pair so I used that as a base. Her binoculars carry another brand name but were made by Celestron. Bottom line, I got them home, took them from the box and could see the birds in my yard with a minimum of adjustment. I have always had great difficulty in using binoculars and have always been frustrated when trying to buy a pair. I am extremely happy with these and the price is wonderful. The specs compare to much higher priced binoculars. I learned that my attempts to buy a light weight pair of binoculars was a mistake. The "42" in the 8 x 42 makes a big difference for field of view. Anyway, I am very satisified with my purchase!

Really a good set of binoculars! I got the pair for my wife who had trouble using a pair of more expensive binoculars, she immediately was more satisfied with these than the ones costing two and a half times what these did. Great wide strap makes you feel like there is nothing on your neck!! I am looking at Celestron's spotting scopes since these are so good.

great buy for the money
rating: 4
I work at a bird viewing preserve and many of the "serious" birders have some very expensive binoculars. Several have checked out the Celestron bins and are amazed at the clarity and would recommend them to people who don't have a lot of money to spend on a good pair of bins. And the no fault, lifetime warranty doesn't hurt either.

Great binoculars for a great price
rating: 5
These binoculars are great buy! Our family has two pairs of the 8x42 (and one pair of the 10x42.) I use them for watching birds.
They produce a very crisp, clear image with bright colors. They are fairly heavy, and are made with solid construction. They also come with a comfy neck strap and case.
I would highly recommend these binoculars for anyone interested in quality optics at a good price.
