Title: Good Value For Decent Beater Binoculars
Review: I have a fairly nice collection of optics, for different occasions and needs. However, I was lacking a cheap pair of compact binoculars I could toss in my cars glove box, loan out, or abuse without feeling guilty. The Tasco Essentials 10x25s are just what I was looking for. They function decent enough - it's quick to focus, are adequate in the daytime, and fold up super-compact. It's fairly well built, considering the price, and feel like they can stand up to a modest amount of wear and tear. They won't replace my nicer binoculars and spotting scopes, but - for the price - I won't feel bad if they only last a season or few in my car.
