Don't think its of a great quality as anticipated. You get what you pay for.... It's not super accurate either and looks fancy from the outside....
Lower quality than I expected September 20, 2008 Karl Freeman (Indiana, USA)
I'm not sure what the story is with the 5-star reviews listed here. Maybe they got a different product. I tested this out five times in the same spot while out hiking (got it out of my pocket, opened it up and leveled it to find magnetic north, then closed it and put it back in my pocket) and it pointed four slightly different directions. My old Silva clear plastic compass, on the other hand, pointed the same exact direction each time. To its credit, this compass was apparently correct on the two occasions when it agreed with itself. In a survival situation, this compass would be better than not having one, but that's all I can say for it.
Does not seem accurate. September 9, 2008 Y. M. Matcheswala (Apex, NC USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I don't think the reading on this is accurate at all because it doesn't give the correct orientation of my house. I verified this another compass as well. Besides it looks really cheap. Of course for the price I cannot expect anything sophisticated, but it should at least point correctly to North. I would not trust this one to find directions if you need to do so on a hike, camp etc.
got moneys worth. July 30, 2008 Cassandra Suarez
