Features

  • Optical Glass Monocular Compound Microscope with Top & Bottom LED Lights
  • 40X-1000X Five Wide Field Magnifications
  • Sturdy Metal Frame with Coaxial Coarse & Fine Focusing
  • Dual LED Light for Both Slides and Opaque Subjects

Description

Ideal For Your Budding Scientist It comes with two 10-piece slide kits, each with five biological specimens and five blank slides — great for an introduction to using microscopes. And when it’s time to prepare your own slides, there is a pack of 50 blank slide with 100 cover slips, red and blue specimen stains, and a slew of tools. To make things even better, we’ve included the book “The World of the Microscope” as an introduction to microscopy. This microscope is perfect for academics in home school for students in elementary to high school. This versatile, dual-light microscope purposes as both a prime-powered and low-powered microscope for viewing larger objects, such as leaves and bugs and incredibly prime-detail viewing of ultra-small, translucent specimens like cells, and even the vascular systems of skinny leaves. And for more-opaque objects, like stamps, sand, or insects, the higher gentle supplies mirrored illumination. This dual light high power microscope has both incident and transmitted LED light sources that allow for both the viewing of opaque objects lit from above and the viewing of translucent specimens lit from below. The light sources use either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (included). Sturdy metal frame with coaxial coarse & fine focusing. Focusing Control knobs on both sides. Condenser: 0.65 NA single lens with 6-hole disc diaphragm The microscope offers five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X, and 1000X.

  • Good Microscope + Good Book = Good Deal
Style: Microscope Kit
We got this for our five-year-old and seven-year-old for Christmas. Even the seven-year-old is a little too young to handle it carefully, but I think this microscope was a really smart choice. It has 4x, 10x, and 40x magnification, just like any microscope we would have used in school. It also has an option to light an object from the top, so you can magnify non-translucent objects, like a leaf or a little pile of powdered sugar (that’s what we’ve looked at so far, anyway!). We got it just for a fun gift, but as parents, so far we’re enjoying it as much as the kids! I chose this one because it seems like a good value with the microscope book it comes with, which really is a great book, and I included some images from the book. The book is fine for the 7 year old, but is really aimed toward someone older. The microscope images are nice and crisp. I don’t work in a lab or anything, but both of us hold degrees in scientific fields and have used microscopes a bit, and we both think it’s good. It comes with some already made slides, and then supplies to make your own. The microscope plugs into the wall but also comes with batteries. So if you want it all in one kit, I recommend this product. ... show more

  • Great microscope to get kids into science!
Style: Microscope Kit
Despite all the various reviews my microscope came well packed and all of the items and glass slides were inside their own boxes. All components were inside sealed styrofoam container inside a plain carton box. Everything in the pictures except color filter ring were there. My microscope does have this ring but it has no filters, just holes of different size, I would assume to control amount of light that comes from bottom light source. It came with lots of sample slides and overall worked really well. I really cannot complain about optics and it is remarkably decent given the cost. I did want one that has dual light source system and while top light works okay, it isn't bright enough so when your objective is too close to the sample, it blocks too much light. We used a simple usb LED snake light to overcome this. Some other reviews mentioned just getting a cheaper version with only bottom light which probably makes sense but I think relatively small price difference is worth for the top light even though it isn't as good as it could have been. Microscope does have light intensity control so I might just swap the LED's for better higher output ones to make for a self contained improvement. Otherwise, the whole thing is metal and seems really sturdy. Adjustment knobs are also solid and work well. So I consider this a very good product as my daughter and myself are really happy with it. ... show more

  • Great gift to give and receive.
Style: Microscope Kit
I bought it for my 12 year old daughter, she loved it. Although it came with prepared slides that didn’t stop her from going into the yard for extra material to look at, she’s that hooked. The scope works well with good illumination and feels extra sturdy. I like the easy handle for moving it around. You can’t beat the price for what you get, it looks very fancy and expensive. ... show more

  • problem fixed...
Style: Microscope Kit
Arrived with the slide covers broken and shattered everywhere. Stuck in the styrofoam packaging. Such a dangerous mess. Why wouldn't they secure them better for shipping?? They were just set in the box. Free to slide and slip and shatter wherever they pleases. After cleaning up that mess we tried it out and it will not focuse. Tried both lenses and every combination of magnification starting with the lowest. Very disappointing. Did not come with an instruction book. You have to download it with a password. Of course I didn't know this and since my box had glass everywhere- I had thrown it away. ***UPDATE April 12*** After contacting the company because of the non-focusing problem, they sent a shipping label. I sent back JUST the microscope and they sent a new one. So far no problems. They also sent new slide covers that had been shattered all over the box. Now my son can use his christmas present. Thank you AmScope for fixing the problem....I am a happy camper. ... show more

  • Wonderful, Incredible Microscope/Deal; Packaging from HELL!!!!
Style: Microscope Kit
I'm giving this five stars because it is an incredible kit...BUT!!!! BROKEN GLASS!!! I wondered if AmScope had fixed this. I thought, surely, this was an issue a while ago. NOPE! It is a CURRENT ISSUE!!! Here's the deal. The glass slide covers are NOT SEALED! (see first pic for that package) These suckers are about an 1" square, and they come out and get bounced around. I had to carefully unpackage everything, wipe it down with paper towels (to grab the glass shards while also being disposable), and then dab spots with tap to get up some that were just stuck. Because the slide covers are so small and thin, and the microscope is encased in styrofoam, they stick like glue, almost! (see second pic, they slip down the side, broken pieces throughout) It took me almost an hour to unpack the items and clean up! All that said, this microscope is WONDERFUL! It has a great deal of versatility and shows promise to intrigue budding scientists and young biologists alike. Honestly, minus the glass business, I want to buy one of these for myself!!! I've missed having a microscope on hand! And this one blends the balance of the different light exposures, allowing unique perspectives on translucent, semi-lucent, and opaque materials alike. It is worth the price and then some! Just be VERY CAREFUL when you open this sucker! Personally, I ended up throwing all the packaging away, just because I could not get rid of every sliver (thought I was good until a sliver went into my finger!). Still, I don't think you'll find this kind of deal for this kind of microscope! It's worth the bit of discomfort! ... show more

  • Delievers far more than one would expect for a unit in this price range. A great find in this price range.
Style: Microscope Kit
I have, as an amateur, used microscopes of various levels of quality since I was a child. I currently have a Japanese Nikon and another brand of Chinese microscopes to compare this unit to. I bought this as a first scope for my grand daughter (and her science minded Dad) to learn with. I liked that it had a book, samples and more for them to get started with. I am impressed with the quality of this scope for its price. The kit is wonderful and has everything they need as beginners to learn about using such an instrument. The optical quality is not up to a Japanese Nikon but that is not a fair comparison by any means. The reality is this scope is far better than one could expect for a device prices this low. It has exceeded my expectations and is certainly very good for a starter scope or a scope for a hobbyist on a budget just starting out. The optics are fine. The included materials really add to the experience as you have everything you need to learn with and grow with. Its a bargain for what it costs. I would recommend it without hesitation and would buy it again without a second thought. Yes, a Japanese Nikon or other high end brand is better, but you will spend a ton more money to get into that class of scope. This baby will get you started and do a wonderful job. I highly recommend this scope for its intended use and as a great value for its price. ... show more

  • Great!
Style: Microscope Kit
We received it today and my daughter loves it. It's a great microscope for homeschooling. We started learning about microscopes, parts, usage, and how to explore it. If someone is is more advanced and knowledgable about microscopes than they might have more to say. For the most part, we love it. I thought the packaging was good. I wish this set came with a case, but it does come with a cover to protect it from dust, which is nice to have. Take a chance, worst case, return it. ... show more

  • Good first microscope
Style: Microscope Kit
My 9 year old wanted a microscope for her birthday so I started looking into them. I didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars on a first microscope, but I didn't want to get her a cheap piece of junk either. I got this one on sale for $86, it is a good microscope, better than the one I had in high school, so it will last her a long time. It has lots of extras which made it even a better deal. Can't review on it's durability yet as we have only had it open for a few days, but it seems to be well made and durable. I didn't have any problem with broken parts like other reviewers did, everything was in the box intact. The only thing that would have made it better is if it had come with a carrying case. I ended up getting a case for it ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00TJ2KEEW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 ) it is a bit big for the microscope, but with a little creative thinking, we made it work. We have the scope in the Styrofoam it came in inside the case and the extra little boxes on the side of that. ... show more
