- Great gift idea.Review by Y.W.

This microscope is great quality for this price. It comes with 2 slides but it also can use itself. ( No worries for losing slides at outdoor uses ) I bough this product for my 6 years old boy and 9 years old girl. They absolutely love it. They take it for walk to discover micro world, and take some samples, from sands to plants, and observe at home.Price Quality Value
I totally recommend for little scientists. (Posted on 16/01/2019) - Really fantastic!Review by Lorraine

This microscope was a great hit with my granddaughter at Christmas, we spent ages searching the garden for interesting things to inspect under the microscope and it was fantastic fun for both her and me!Price Quality Value
I wasn't expecting it to be as good as it is, the quality of the image is so clear and it is a robust design which should stand up to the bumps and scrapes of an outdoor adventure further afield than the garden!
It is a great microscope for anyone who is interested in looking deeper into the natural things around us and easy to use for both children and adults alike.

For the cost, we weren't expecting much from this little microscope, but I have to say, it's amazing! Really portable so you can put it on anything to have a closer look. My son has loved walking round the house and trying it on everything! Comes with some slides so you can pop tiny things between them and a built in light to enhance viewing. I would highly recommend for any budding little scientists! (Posted on 22/11/2016)Price Quality Value - FantasticReview by Di

This is such a great toy and a great microscope. Perfect for looking at little insects. I love the fact that you can use microscope slides to see fibres, but also remove them and place the microscope over a little insect without harming it. We looked at a small spider yesterday and my 7 year old was mesmerized (so was I).Price Quality Value
This is a fantastic microscope for everyone to carry at all times. (Posted on 17/06/2016) - £40 Microscope in a £10 package!Review by AndyW

This is such a great buy, I got two of these for my kids for Christmas just as stocking fillers and was blown away by the high quality of the image, these things give such a crisp image that I couldn't believe it only cost £10! I collect mineral samples and have never found a decent piece of optics for anywhere near this price point that delivers this kind of result. It even has a built in light and space for standard microscope slides. I would definitely recommend this to beginner scientists and seasoned pros alike!Price Quality Value
Definitely my best buy of 2014!
