Needs improvement
Posted 9/4/2008 by Becky McDowell
Rating: 
There was no case to store all the supplies in and the directions were very text heavy. The very first experiment in the book has you mix a chemical with water then wait 24 hours before proceeding, this would have been very disheartening for my nephew if I hadn't caught it ahead of time and prepared the solution myself. Improvements need to be made.

Chemistry set a must have for budding scientists!

The C1000 chemistry set is an outstanding product. Everything that comes with it is "the real deal" (real glass test tubes, real chemicals). Adult supervision is required depending on the age of the child using it but that should be looked at as valuable one on one time spent with your child helping them to discover the wonders of science. A quality product all the way around.
FOR THE BUDDING SCIENTIST

My 10-year-old got this for his birthday. He was asking for the CHEM-3000, but I thought we would start here. Good choice, he comes home from school and wants to do another experiment and he's keeping a journal of his results.

Excellent for our nine year old son who was engaged and learned from the experiments. Needs adult supervision.

We bought this for our sons birthday. He has used it everyday since. He loves it and we love that he isn't playing video games.
great choice!

My 11 year old really enjoys the set, but is complaining of the 3 or more full size pages with small printing of instructions that he has to read. I think they could have made the reading more easier for children.

Exactly what I was looking for as a first Chemistry set for our 9 year old daughter. I think she's going to love it and I can't wait for her to get it so I can play with it too.

So far, my 10 year old daughter has completed about 6 experiments. She is enjoying this product very much. I can see now that we are going to run out of some material. Is there a way to order pieces of equipment (e.g. reagents, filter paper, etc). It would be nice to have a replacement order sheet with prices. Also, for the adults supervising, it would be nice to have a booklet with simple explanations of the chemical reactions behind these experiments.
Great For Homeschooling

I bought this Chemistry set for my 4th grade homeschooled son. We haven't begun any experiements yet, but we were pleased with the general layout and level of instruction the enclosed booklet provided. I had shopped various kits and separate components, and found this kit at Fat Brain to be the best value for the supplies.
Tremendous Fun!

My son adores this set. He anxiously awaited its arrival and has been thrilled with it over and over since then. A great quantity of great quality materials make this the best beginner's chemistry set I've seen. My only criticism is that the directions are not easily adapted for special needs children. I would have loved for my son to read the directions himself. Other than that, it's a fantastic product.

I'm certain that it will exceed my nephew's expectations (age 8). He is especially looking forward to turning water into juice and back again. Kids.

I loved the product but I wish the gloves were included and a second pair of glasses.

Overall, the set is very nice. I purchased it for my son's 9th birthday for "to do together" projects. (I am aware that it's rated for ten and older.) The set includes fun, easy projects to do. One bad note-a test tube broke while putting it together. The glass is very thin.
A Very Nice Chemistry Set

What swayed us toward this particular chemistry set was the expandability. The instructions are clear and our son is enjoying it very much. It hits so many specific targets for him, like science and technically detail oriented procedures while at the same time he has a great deal of fun with the "magic trick" aspect and entertaining his brothers and friends. It's a hit for sure. I only wish it came with a carrying case. I wish more toy manufacturers would get with the program and realize their products, especially those with numerous individual pieces, need to be packed up and stored when they're not being played with.
Way Cool, As The Kids Would Say

I think my Navy pilot, microbiologist son-in-law was more anxious to get started using it than the kids for whom it was purchased. It will afford many hours of fun, and must be exceptional in content or he wouldn't have been so interested.
And the kids loved it too. Hope they don't blow up anything!
Thanks to you; your website and products are fantastic.
Respectfully,
Judy Goddard

I bought this for my 10-year-old *budding chemist* and she adores it. She especially loved that it included the instructions and chemicals to make reactions - much better than some cheaper sets that only include a few test tubes and not much else. I highly recommend this toy.

I was slightly dissappointed in this toy in that I was hoping it came in a case that my son could keep all the pieces in. The syrofoam will not work well in the long term.
