Very poor quality October 31, 2008 K. J. Carter This was a very good price for a microscope, but a high price for what you get. Poor, flimsy construction and a warped lens!
T5Alive April 10, 2008 T 5 Alive (Bend OR) Loved the product and the features. It had some cool accessories I did not even expect to get. Great starter set.
expensive toy April 7, 2008 Elaine Hamarsheh (mountain home AR.) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
if ur looking for a toy microscope this is a good one otherwise its nothing but a toy
very powerful toy February 29, 2008 MR. FISH 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I purchased this for the magnification power alone. no other set for less than a hundred dollars will get close to 1200x mag. all the gripes about it are true, it is cheap, and it does move around as you try and focus, but you can focus it, and the instructions were hidden in the bottom of the box. I almost missed them too. the accessories are a joke, the light is very orange, the projector hood is useless, but it has the power we were looking for, so overall, I got exactly what I excpected. if you want "perfect" look somewhere else, If you want affordable power, you might consider this one.
Poor optical quality December 4, 2007 Cham LIM (Boston, MA USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This scopes is not up to standard at all. If you are looking for a toy, there are much cheaper option. If you are hoping to kindle your kids' interest in science with this scope, forget it!! The optical quality is very poor. Also, you can only get a some what clear image from the projector if you hold the paper within 2 inches from the projector. My son and I wasted a whole month waiting for this scope to arrive, and we have decided to return it after using it for less than an hour.
