6 Pcs Orienteering Compass Bulk Portable Survival Compass Scout Learning Compasses with Declination Magnifier Ruler & Scale Map Read for Class Gift Hiking Camping Backpacking Navigation

Bought several to teach our Federation of North-American Explorers group orienteering. This is a good basic compass. - A little big for the younger boys to easily hold in 1 hand comfortably but good for older boys, adults, etc. - The lanyard is a nice-to-have to avoid having to hold or put in pockets when you want it close by but don't need it at the moment. - Helpful to measure distances on a map, to enhance the value of learning the map-and-compass skill by the boys. - The display is easy to read, and the needle is fully colored Red to point North (vs. just a dot on some other compasses I have seen). - Does not handle declination, but that was beyond the scope of our lessons. - Watch-out!! Slow to get it accurate as the needle moves a lot before settling. Also sensitive to other magnetic items and may not be a perfect read. I have recommended that each of our boys buy 1 of these for their day pack as one of the "Ten Essentials of Hiking!" A good item to have handy at a good price.

Bright yellow makes them easier to find when left somewhere. Easy to hold and read. Kids like to use the neck strap. Buyer Beware: One of the compasses had reverse polarity. If your North arrow points South, run a strong magnet over it a few times until it points North. No need to return it.

Very inaccurate, I purchased this to teaching an orienteering class, the compass is nice and comes with quite a bit of features, but the needle is very inaccurate and does not rotate appropriately. Further there is not leveling bubble. I would HIGHLY recommend you avoid this product, it is 100% not usable for navigation. Now I do understand you get what you pay for and these were cheap, but my main focus was teaching, and I couldn't even teach with these.

5 of the 6 are good. 1 came with no liquid in it so it doesn't work. They were cheap so too much of a bother to return for a new one.

Purchased for kids to have and keep for use in a class merit.

They are OK, good for the price but I feel like usually they’re not giving me accurate readings. I tested a couple times and it usually just feels a little bit off. If you’re looking for a precise would not recommend.

These are great, reasonably priced, simple but has eveything you need for navigation around a map. Light weight, but will stand up to rough treatment. Nice equipment.

Good quality for money. Used with kids easy to find! Big enough for kids hands clear markings

They break easily, cant rely on them.
