I wouldn't judge all binoviewers by the Saxon unit - Saxon quality control is a little lacking. My last Saxon purchase will be my last Saxon purchase - ED80 turned up with numerous metal particles on the lens and a bent focus wheel shaft.
The Stellarvue/Burgess/etc chinese bino units have the reputation of being decent though the quality can vary. I decided on a Stellarvue unit after searching the Stellarvue yahoo group archives and finding numerous references to effective QC. Stellarvue owners seem to be a very contented lot and hold Vic(the owner) in high regard. I'm sure the ocasional lemon still gets through though.
If you wanted more performance/quality the Denk's seem to be well regarded (I haven't used them) starting at about US$350.
