Review: Specs from Firmoo.com

Hello everyone!

Hope your weekend was relaxing as it was joyful. I'm starting to do holiday shopping for my friends and family and the lines at stores are starting to get hectic. The usual flow is people is multiplying by the weeks o_o Nonetheless, it is still fun to browse around and be amongst happy shoppers before the onset of crazy last minute shoppers come into play.

A few weeks ago, I received a pair of prescription glasses from Firmoo.com, an online optical retailer to review. They offer practical and fashion forward frames for affordable prices. Unlike going to the optometrist, you can browse the frames without being under the dreaded lights of a busy office and being surrounded by pushy sales people.

The pair of glasses they sent me came really fast. They sent me a tracking #, and communication was great from the start.

The selection of frames is pretty nice, and they have different collections to look at, from geeky  specs to more practical ones seen here, to prescription sunglasses.

The awesome thing about Firmoo is that they offer free glasses to first time customers (check it out here). All you have to do is pay for shipping, which is $6.95. I think it's quite a good deal because if you don't like what you ordered, you're entitled to a full refund. You really have nothing to lose.

Very very sorry for the bad photo quality. I didn't have my camera... o_o

I picked a classic wayfarer frame with a leopard print. I love it! The frames are lightweight and have a nice feel to it. There is quality to be said - the lenses were pretty accurate. I have two different prescriptions for the left and right eye and when I wore the glasses, it felt balanced and I didn't get a headache from wearing them, so definite props for that!

All in all, I was very happy with the service that Firmoo offered and the selection of frames. There's a good chance you can spot a dupe of something you really like or simply to get a backup pair or even order a pair for fashion blogging purposes. The prices range from $8.00-$58.00 depending on style and selection so affordability is definitely there.

I think I will be ordering a few more styles to play around with. Specs are the ultimate accessory, isn't it? :) For new customers, you can get a free pair of glasses here.

Hey readers, have you ordered from Firmoo? Do you think it compares to Coastal in terms of service and/or quality? Or, is there a optical retailer you absolutely just love? Please share! :)
