I read the reviews on Amazon and then had one sent to my mil. What I gathered from the reviews is that it works pretty well for women less than 5'10" tall. The magnifier is not good, but the light is. There are two colored filters you can choose from to change the color of the light if you don't like the blue-white light of the LED bulbs. Here's a link to the reviews if you want to check them out yourself:
