Microscope for grandson
Reviewed By:
Rod Paley (Rockaway, New Jersey)
I purchased the scope to introduce my grandson to optical devices. It did everything I wanted to stimulate his interest in many areas of science. The two most highly desired characteristics were self illumination and 400X. Without the high magnification I could not show him the living things in pond water or other extremely small items. When I was a kid I had a non-self illuminated scope and was extremely disappointed to only be able to use it in bright sunshine. This scope could be used at night after a day of collecting specimen. The only negative factor is the fact that it is manufactured in China.

This is a very nice set put together with good quality items. The microscope has a lifetime guarantee, but seems so well-made that you wouldn't ever need to use it.
The case it comes in is very professional looking. The experiments in the companion book are designed to teach the user different skills in using the microscope and slide-making. They also provide a good overview of basic cell structure of plants & animals.
I just couldn't be happier with this set, and I know my granddaughter will love opening it on Christmas morning!
