And my wife has a nasty habit of misplacing glasses. So we have (literally) 10 pair of glasses floating around the house/cars for her.
21 year old son has maybe 8 pair himself.
And this is all a LOT cheaper than buying just one expensive pair at Costco or wherever.
We've had two issues with our Zenni orders. One they took care of promptly and one I just got too lazy to contact them about, so I just forgot about it (since we have so many.)
All in all, I'm a fan.
Edit: because I just get the cheap included lenses most of the time these days, this sale doesn't really help me much. Typically they'll offer a BF or Cyber Monday deal of like 20% off everything. That's what I've been waiting for before I order a couple more pair.

I order the same pair from them all the time and it works for me.
I have to say that my glasses always end up to be around $70 (basic prescription).
I would suggest to avoid their Blockz, and the blue-light protective lenses since they have a lot of reflections (even with anti reflective coating)
Yeah, I have ordered a few times. No problems with the lenses or frames. If you have the correct PD, you're good.
Yes, terrible service. No experience with EyeBuy
I have used eyebuydirect and zenni both on several occasions. I prefer eyebuydirect as I think the quality is better than Zenni ( not a huge difference though). So you can go with either wherever you like the frame better. FYI- eyebuydirect has 30% off everything.

Yes. Had one good experience and one bad. Normal progressives went well. "Office" progressives for mid-distance were useless. I would have to mail back to replace, which isn't worth it.
But they're so cheap I'm still WAY ahead. Bifocals are also quite good.
For a decent looking, fairly tough, super cheap (mens) frame, check out model #461821. $7 with single vision lenses plus $5 shipping ($5 total for 1 to infinite pairs, I believe). I've got like seven pairs of those things now.
Some of the plastic ones break after a year or don't do well in heat - or just feel cheap. These metal ones have been very impressive for the insanely low price.
Just reading your reply has me 💀🥲 lol I'm alright then haha, glasses will be just fine
i think it depends on what you buying, but zenni prices are very competitive, and I find them extremely high quality. my last glasses from them lasted me 3yrs, until it was time to update my prescription
Here is the bottom line: I bought a great pair of flexible glasses outside of Zenni for my daughter for a total price of $450.
Fast forward 2 years: I find out about Zenni. The same pair cost me $50. SAME EXACT PAIR. NO CHANGE IN QUALITY!!!!
enough said
The quality seems generally the same for comparably priced frames imo.
I did have an issue with Zenni selling a pair of frames that were a few mm smaller than described which essentially made them children glasses. I should have read all the reviews since most of them were complaining about the same thing. I guess it was within their margin of error though.
It's more of a gamble buying frames online since it can be difficult to see their actual size. Zenni does an exceptionally terrible job of providing any sort of scale to compare their glasses to. They are all shown against a white background with absolutely no images of people wearing them. All the images are also not sized relative to each other so a pair of really small children glasses can show up bigger than adult sized. It's also not that easy to use the measurements to estimate the size since frames only have certain measurements to go by and in many cases they don't tell the whole story.
