It takes a tiny bit of engineering to make it useful: Heavier base, better nut and bolt for main clamp, I had to epoxy the stud into the base as the hole was a bit large. But all this takes but a minute and little/no cost. It is usable right out of the box, and a pretty good value for thee small price.

I purchased this to put sterling charms on my bracelet and my husbands use when working with resisters; IT IS NOT man-friendly.. It is so cheaply made that only functionality is the stand-up magnifier which is weak (4X). The finger space is small due to the 2 1/2 inch space between the arms and magnifier; there just isn't any work room. The magnifier is too small for the holder brackets and the screws easily loosens after one adjustment; the weighted bottom does not have enough weight so little stability. BEWARE! They offer FREE SHIPPING on this product but return cost was the same amount of purchase price of $6.93 - GOT-CHA sale! The company shipped fast but when arrived, there was nothing in the package except the magnifier; NO PAPER WORK. I requested their return procedure and told to just ship it back. Using paper, I filled out the purchase and Item number, along with my information and went to drop it off at the post office, only to walk out when told the price to ship back. Read full review

I use this to solder wires, although you can probably fabricate something yourself, this was too inexpensive to pass up. It could however be made with a larger heavier base to to stay put. So I use large spring clamps to clamp it to the edge of the table so nothing moves. It does what it is designed to do with slight mods.

This item arrived on time, but it came in pieces. Looking at a picture, it was somewhat easy to put together, so for the price, I would say it was a good value. Considering it is made of metal, the quality is there. If you are good at puzzles, I definitely would recommend.

It's a great helping third hand. Don't espect to use it with big stuffs. I use it for repairing cellphones boards and it does a very good job holding them. Nice product, just try to add a little more weight to the base to make it more stable. Regards
