Horrible customer service

I decided to pay more to get a quality monocular and chose Bushnell because of reputation and reviews. When I bought the monocular I was given a promotional code to get a discount of 15%. That code would not work after three attempts and I purchased at full price. For the next two weeks I tried to call and talk with someone on your team and got the same message that you were having technical difficulties at least 8 times. I'm fearful that if I do have issues that I won't be able to get help. I also sent an email on your support page, and never got a response. I hope someone reads this and can contact me, and explain why my discount code would not work. Ron Reupert

Checks all the boxes

I havent really put this to the test yet, but so far i love it. Well made, fits great in your hand and the optics are fabulous. 2 lens covers, a case and i wioe cloth for a great price. You can buy another brand for more and get less.

I really like my Bushnell monocular, it fits in my petite hands. When you look through the view finder it's very clear and sharp and I like the added features.

Above the rest

This monocular has exceptional optical quality. The supplied lens caps are a nice touch, I like how there's enough room inside the included case to support a cleaning cloth and the included strap. I love the location of the focus knob compared to other brands. I'll be ordering a second one for my mom.

Unfortunately Made in China

From one end to another. Picatinny rail screws stripped. The ridiculous cheaply made pouch reeks Chinese. . Glass is on same part as cheaper monos. Save yourself the trouble of returning this PoC and buy a Vortex.

The perfect tool

It's perfect. The view, the performance, the material. It's made of some of the best optics in the market for its very affordable value. Visibility when using it is crisp clear and feels very comfortable when gripping. Definitely a recommendation for all users.

Fantastic Product

I only have serviceable vision in one eye. Therefore, I sought out a monocular. I was surprised at the number of options. I finally chose the Bushnell and it has greatly exceeded my expectations. I wish I had gotten one a long time ago. I am an avid birder and travel extensively in the western US. It is awesome for birds and wildlife.

Agree with the review from Sharon L

There were no instructions on how to attach the lanyard, it has a plastic end on it that doesn't attach to anything on this model. I used the fixed loop on the side and instead of hanging straight down it hung slanted and swung side to side as I walked. Probably designed by males and intended for other males that wear a belt and use the belt clip. It may seem insignificant but having a good way to carry it while hiking is important to me.

Great buy...but

the monocular is Bushnell, so it is very good. Crisp, clear, bright, well built and well worth the money.BUT, the rear eye piece cover is tied on with a piece of leftover string from something else and the so called lanyard is even more random. Hard to figure out why such a reputable company would cheap out so badly on insignificant accessories. Very minor points to be sure but as you can tell, aggravating as hell !

I'm in the mountains of NE Oregon using this monocular like a spotting scope glassin' rock chucks and squirrels out to 200 yards. I am very pleased with the quality of this optic. its exceptionally visibility, light weight, clarity, brightness, & specifically the sight picture. Its easy to dial in and proven quite handy when in situations where light weight and speed were required in targeting applications.

10x42 Legend Monocular

Love the size and magnification! Not the bag though. Bought a padded, military surplus, molle straped, opticle ACOG pouch for it! Dropped in like it was made for it! Can wear with belt or place on a pack! Only thing I plan to do differently with the pouch is cover drain hole at the bottom with a cut to fit piece of 1/4 inch thick neoprene for added drop protection and keep dust out!

Bushnell Monocular, Legend HD 10x42

I'm really happy with my purchase. You can't go wrong with Bushnell. I love that it is small and easy to hold and focus. The range is perfect for me and for my purposes. I've always been one to turn binoculars on their side to use just one side and finally decided to get a monocular. Adorama got the product to me quickly and no problems with order or product. I've used Adorama in the past for photo equipment and always had good service from them. Thank you.

Fabulous Optics; Carrying Case is Too Big

The optics on this are great and worth 5 stars. I gave it a 4 because of the carrying case. It's WAY too big. People often get monoculars because they're smaller than a pair of binoculars so who would want a case that would hold a pair of binoculars.

Sturdy without being overly heavy. Very easy to zoom in or out with one finger, nice optics. And really hasn't fogged up when going from one temperature to another. Very happy bird watcher now!

Overall it's great. I have tried binoculars and can't use them . . . one bad eye. So the single-optic works superbly well for me.

Fine product. Easy to focus. Good image for old eyes.

Perfect spotter for the range.

I bought this monocular to use it on the range. When being RSO on the fireing line it allows me to quickly pick up bullet impacts and check on the score. Light and compact but great optical quality! The monocular is built like a tank and still light and easy to use even for extended time. Thank you Bushnell for this awesome monocular.

Bird watching is so much better...

Really surprised at the small size, was fearful it would be too big and hard to handle, but it is anything but. Very well made, and controls are tight and precise. Excellent product IMO. Being a photographer I respect the workmanship.
