The quality of the build. The screw holding one arm was too tight and the other was too loose. Suggests poor quality control before despatch.

These are very light glasses to wear and the rimless design means it almost doesn't look like you are wearing glasses. I like the plum coloured frame as it is slightly unusual - I haven't seen this colour option on the high street.
-
I find that my vision is ever so slightly obscured as I can see the points where the lenses are attached to the frames. However, they are fine for the purpose I bought them for which was for evening wear when I don't want 'obvious' frames. Also, they do feel quite delicate and as though they could easily be bent out of shape.

Good rimless glasses, nice light frame
-
1. Large internal refraction, particularly from overhead spot lights. Probably a problem with many rimless designs. The result is that you see the reflected light at the base of the lens which is distracting
2. While minimalistic, the lenses don't go down the cheek as far as I would like, introducing a blind spot at the floor in front of me.

Very light, great clarity through the lenses.
Well-built, with double-screw supports for the lenses - no chance of alignment problems!
-
Arms a little short - needed some adjustment before they'd fit properly.
The mountings from the frame can intrude into your vision a little, but the fact that the lenses are quite wide compensates a little.

Lightweight, fit well and are comfortable. Also a bonus that I had hoped for in that I can now eat, or, read at the same time as watching other longer located subjects. This, due to the fact that it is easy to look down below the lenses. This final benefit, of course, is entirely due to my own good judgement. Never-the-less it is a good product and is suited to my needs.
-
Signs of metal to lense connection becoming fatigued. So, maybe I'll need to re-purchase before my sight alters, or, enlist a local techician to remedy the problem, thereby negating some of the cost benefit.

Lightweight, inexpensive, fashionable.

Although a fashionable design the thickness of the lense detracts from this with a white glare at the edges. I would therefore not recommend to someone who has more than a mild myopia or would suggest only purchasing if opting for extra thin lenses. I had not done this as these glasses were designed with a thin lense in any case and I needed them only for brief periods when not wearing contact lenses.

Sit high on bridge of nose, so not good if you have a broad bridge. Best to go for thinnest possible lenses, as thick lenses appear more obvious without a frame.

As the height of the lens is fashionably narrow, it's not ideal glasses for reading as you have to tilt your head lower than normal in order to see through the lens - I tend to slide it down my nose 'headmaster like' to compensate. For normal viewing it's absolutely fine.

Very nice glasses at a good price - I'd definitely recommend the teflon coating (hardly ever have to clean the lenses).
-
My specific glasses need a lot of adjustment and tweaking of the bridge and sides before I felt they fitted properly. I think this is because they are rimless so there is probably a lot of variation when they are assembled - I've not had this problem before when buying (non-rimless) glasses before online. Also because the lenses are wide and only curved in one plane, they could easily end up looking a bit thick at the sides - go for a 1.6 (or higher) index lens if your prescription is much worse than -3.50

The glasses are too wide and you get reflections from behind on the lens which is distracting.
