Nice looking glasses, somewhat fragile

Nice looking glasses, lenses as prescribed. Temple a tad long causing glasses to slide down the nose. As per the common practice I tried to warm up the tip by rubbing then bend it a bit to shorten the overall temple length. Oops- it just snapped! A first for me in 30 years of glasses, raising issues of quality. Initially, communication with Tenda Glasses wasn’t smooth, but that was ironed out. They offered to send replacement parts, and indeed I received extra tips, as promised – but not identical to the original. OK, though. So I exchanged both tips, and was surprised how easily they came on. And can slip off. I dare not bend the bare wire, as I need to, so the glasses keep sliding and I often need to push them up. We’ll see how they hold up: - Easily scratched or good coating? - Nose tip holding? I generally prefer screw over pressure; hope I’ll be proven wrong. - Temple and bridge holding to lenses? Again, I trust screws, but hope to be proven wrong. Overall - will I buy again from Tenda? I think so, provided that I find what I need in the rather limited selection (compared to Zenni). Pros: - Prices are really good. - Lenses as prescribed (by feeling, not by examination by professional). - The glasses that I bought are nice looking. Cons: - Initial communication wasn’t smooth. - No clip-ons offering. (I’m using one from my previous Zenni’s glasses) Quality – yet to pass the test of time.
