This microscope has kept my 8 year old busy for hours collecting and examining "specimens". The dual lights are nice and bright, and make looking at solid objects as easy as the slides. Recommended!

We love this microscope. My kids love the idea of having a microscope as a toy. They learn so much from it. I am happy that this microscope has a dual scope, so you can see objects in a slide or can put any solid object under the scope and it can see it too. It's not too heavy but do not look like a toy either. The magnification is clear and with proper handling and use, it can really focus well.

Excellent toy. Our 9-year old son likes it a lot. It is great fun for the whole family as well. The microscope is of very good quality, and it has all the needed accessories for the young scientist.
Good microscope for the price

As a physician, I have a great deal of experience with microscopes. The optics on this scope are quite good for the price, and although some parts of the scope are of cheaper quality(such as the battery compartment), they put the money where it counts. Intuitive design, surprising illumination at high magnification(400x). As a bonus, this scope also features above-stage illumination, which allows examination of opaque objects such as insects- making the scope easier to use for younger kids who cannot prepare traditional slides. Finally, included supplies such as scalpel, probe, prepared slides, well slide, stain, cover glasses,small petri dish, lens paper and test tube allow the budding scientist to set up a home "lab". Excellent for ages 8-13

Do not buy this microscope for the 40x objective, it's useless-which is why I can't give this a 5 star as it doesn't do all is says it can. However, DO buy this microscope if you want to explore the world or microscopes at a low price. We have been able to study blood, skin, and the teeniest of insects with this seeing many amazing details with 4x and 10x objectives. The duo-light option is very handy. We just finished inspecting paper, fabric, a dog toy and even a lego man using the upper light. This probably isn't going to get us through any high level microbiology courses, but it sparked an intense desire to explore our world so I go for it!! It also comes with lots of "extras" that sure beat having to buy these things separately!!!
