1 out of 5 stars One day wonder.   April 7, 2010

Yes, I know it is cheap. Yes I know it contains a dangerous chemical-rubbing alcohol.
But it also has the Brunton label which used to mean a good working compass.

It worked for 24 hours, approximately. Now it points consistantly to West.

It even says on it "made in USA" so I cannot blame it on bad Chineese quality control.



4 out of 5 stars Good for travel   March 17, 2010

I was hesitant to buy this because of some of the negative reviews, but did so anyway. I bought it for travel and needed a basic compass to point me in the right direction. It seems slightly off as others have noted, but for my purposes, it was fine. It didn't need to be accurate. I had no trouble taking it on the plane (the liquid is flammable). I only wish the compass was smaller. A minor negative is the ink used to mark the numbers rubs off easily. It's been several weeks since I've owned the compass and the ink still stains my fingers slightly.


4 out of 5 stars Little Bigger than I thought   March 9, 2010

This is a good size for a key-chain, but i was hoping for a little smaller considering my key-chain is already a little cluttered. Also, be careful because things on your key-chain will mess with the accuracy of this compass, (i.e. Jump drive and RFID Key for your car). So when you get ready to use it take it off the key-chain and get it away from everything.

I needed a compass that worked in doors. This compass easily fits in my pocket and is accurate. I would recommend this product.


1 out of 5 stars Cheap and Hazardous   September 7, 2009

When I opened this package, I immediately thought it looked like a $1 or $2 trinket I could have picked up at dollar store.

I kept it for a day, decided it was nothing special, and told Amazon I wanted to return it.

At that time, I was told by Amazon that I could not return the item because it contained hazardous materials that were against Amazon's Shipping Policy, rendering it non-returnable. I was shocked, because this was ...just a compass! I had to send a couple of emails back and forth with Amazon before being told that the liquid inside the compass is "absolute ethyl alcohol" - a hazardous item that they would not accept as a return. I am still interested to learn how Amazon managed to ship this in the first place, however.

This item, I feel, is overpriced. Maybe not 1 Star, but this way someone will spot it among the 4 and 5 star reviews that exist for this item.
