If you're looking for something bright, this is your lantern! Great purchase at great value. I own six propane lanterns and they have great nostalgic value, but for light when you need it, nothing beats a battery lantern.

The reassemble is a bit tricky but doable. It is great for whatever reason you need to use it. Lasts a long time with the batteries.
It's a simple, yet durable design that is pretty lightweight despite the (6) d size batteries that it uses. Too bad it's so big and bulky, but that's something i can live with. Very sturdy base also.
Cons
This is the most difficult lantern i have ever had to load batteries into. The battery compartment is like a * saw puzzle and will not line up properly. Difficulty inserting batteries and closing.
Highlights
Quality
But the battery cost aside, i’m completely happy with the product itself.
Very happy with the quality and the design.
However, because the product contains so much plastic i would not want to test its durability by dropping it more then a couple of feet.
The reassemble with the batteries is a bit tricky but doable.
Competitiveness
If your buy any brand worth anything it can cost a small fortune!

The usb port to recharge a phone or other devices is a nice feature but it does drain this products batteries fairly quickly
