I bought this for my daughter, for her science class. It's really easy to set and use. We love it, and recommend it. It's worth the money and we love the case that it came in, too.

Great product for the money. To soon to know for sure, but for what we need it for, I am sure it will be fine. We ordered a slide kit that had a number of different things already in a slide. Should show up today.

It’s a good microscope for the price. A lot better than the other microscope I ordered off Amazon. Easy to use. Comes with instructions, batteries, a dust bag, and a wall plug if you don’t have batteries.
Unfortunately my 40 x objective lens is so dirty. I can see the little specks only on the 40x lens, the other objectives are perfectly clear. Ordering a replacement and hoping it’s better! Will update review after.

We bought this as a microscope for homeschool lessons. It isn‘t the best microscope, but works well for our needs. Def an upgrade from the cheap kids microscopes.

Decent for the price, we are using it in our science classrooms. Is a good item for simple experiments, a good experience for inexperience students that might not be able to handle expensive equipment.

After reading some of the reviews, I was leery of buying this microscope. However, after receiving it I‘m glad I did...The box was in good shape. The contents were sealed in plastic and styrofoam. Batteries were sealed, not used. Everything was new, not reshipped.
The scope has three objective lenses; red for low power, yellow for medium power, and blue for high power. The scope comes with two eyepieces: one WF 10X and one WF 25X (both widefield). That is what the WF stands for. The scope also comes with a power adapter, just in case you don't want to use batteries. And, it comes with a plastic dust cover.
Someone complained about the scope not having an upper light. I used a small LED flashlight with good success.
As someone pointed out. one picture shows the scope hooked to a computer. This is very misleading, but for the price, it can be overlooked.
I happen to have a Celestron 93709 NexImage Solar System Imager, which I bought to use with my 10-inch telescope. It isn't much use unless you have a scope that tracks. My scope is manual. However, I found the imager of great use with a microscope. I have another MF10X eyepiece form a less expensive microscope, and it snuggly fits the imager. I am able to take pictures with my computer using the imager and scope.
I bought the microscope for my grandson. It will be of great use in his Biology Class.
One more thing: for those complaining about the scope not coming with slides and extras; the price will not allow it. You get those things with cheaper scopes. This is a great scope for the price as is.

This was gift, it arrived with the top loose and missing a lenses. My daughter finally got satisfaction from the company after several text messages, taking about a month to resolve the problem. She is a home schooler, and she and her girls love using it.
