Item is well made, however it comes with no instructions what-so-ever. For someone who has an idea of how to use one of these it's not a problem, but for the beginner being advised to get a cheshire collimator it will leave them asking what on earth they do with it.
Fortunately using a cheshire is well documented on the forums and other websites....

SW collimation eyepiece - Paul
This is a good quality collimation eyepiece. Easy to use, but would benefit people new to collimation if instructions were included. Well made and will last a life time.

Nothing to be scared of - Tom
Being new to astronomy the idea of collimating my scope did scare me a bit, but with this eyepiece it was easy! The only thing I find slightly disappointing is the price. Essentially this is just a tube with a few holes in it and a couple of wires, so I think £25 is a bit on the pricey side. On the other hand it is much cheaper than its laser counterparts, so maybe its not that expensive.
