bon qualit incroyable pour le prix.
pas de notice d’utilisation livre avec mais si vous avez l’habtude des micoscopes, rien d’inhabituelle.
Esta muy bien, se ve genial y es de buena calidad
I loved how clear the slides appeared. 3 different magnification heads, easy to adjust for fine tuning. Bought for at home to look closely at everyday things like, sugar, sand etc. Bought for a curious parent and teenage son. Fascinating. Very pleased with this microscope
The microscope itself is sturdy and provides a clear view of slides. However, it arrived in a tatty ripped open cardboard box , the microscope secured only by polystyrene packaging. This is a gift , the packaging is not suitable to give as a gift, nor is the polystyrene. I now have to source a box for storage and making it presentable. There are no instructions or leaflets included whatsoever , I have however managed to download some instructions for use and print them off. There are a few slides included in a small box. I have purchased a larger selection, and the Dorling Kindersley Microscope book which is comprehensive with the right pitch for a first time user. For a few pounds more I really would have liked this to have come in some sort of box, it really would enhance the product and provide a means of storage .
It is a great gift for a child like since, I recommended this item because it is useful and good item.
This is my first ever microscope and it is awesome. Yesterday I examined a yeast solution of yeast and sugar mixed with water. I was able to see the yeast cells which are so tiny, but I was able to make out the green colouration within the cells.
Es un microscopio de verdad, no uno de juguete. Se ve muy bien. Compr uno de juguete y lo devolv, por un poquito ms puedes comprar este. Muy contenta con l.
Very simple and easy to use! I had bought it for a friends birthday! Very sturdy too, value for money
For under 50 quid this was great value. It came with batteries and UK mains adaptor + a few slides in a small box. Well built mainly metal and probably glass lenses and not toy like . A pity the soft plastic cover is quite flimsy, however very hard to fault this product at the price.
For 50, can’t go wrong. Well made, sturdy, easy to use and does the job. It comes with two interchangeable lenses at 10x and 25x magnification and three fixed lenses at 4x 10x and 40x. Ideally, it should’ve come with a few more interchangeable lenses to find a more accurate magnification, as you essentially have 40x 100x 100x 250x 400x and 1000x.
If like me, you need a microscope for your Koi keeping hobby or just for educational purposes; this model is good enough and great value.
Haven’t seen any parasites yet, but that’s not a fault with the microscope; just healthy fish!
Fantastic microscope, really happy with it.
My 12 year old son finds it great to help will learning about cells ec
I will be ordering one or two for my kids. Much better than those kids (toy) microscopes which cost a lot more but don’t do anything and are so fiddly!! Great purchase! And has a backlight which is cool. No instructions manual in the box though not much assembling to do anyway.
Been having loads of fun with this…. great magnification and crystal clear optics.. even had a look at my own blood and was able to see the individual cells….amazing.
Good quality my kid loves it
Best Christmas ever he said
This was a Christmas gift and the recipient was ecstatic with it. Easy to use and set up.
Bought it for my niece she loves it I was impressed with the optic quality and very happy with my purchase I recommend this as anyones first microscope
This item was purchased as a gift for one of our grandsons,so will report back to you once he has received i
bought as a Christmas present for my 7 year old granddaughter, she is so looking forward to getting a microscope so hope she will not be disappointed. Brief look shows ease of use, and seems sturdy and well made, should last her for some time if she remains interested. I got quite excited myself looking at slides supplied with it, the price was a bargain, cheapest place for this scope we had chosen, lucky for us.
Great microscope for my 7-year-old son. Easy to use and decent quality but I find lighting is not powerful enough at times. I don’t love the slides that came with it but they’re okay. We ordered another set.
Il microscopio arrivato malfunzionante e dopo due giorni si bruciato il potenziometro perch l’adattatore era difettoso. E’ stato sostituito nel giro di dieci giorni da AMicroscope con uno identico che invece funziona perfettamente. Abbiamo ucciso una mosca e le sue parti si distinguono perfettamente , la cosa pi impressionante la nitidezza con cui si vedono i particolari. Abbiamo provato anche con cristalli e semi , tutto va come speravamo.
Magnfic producte. Molt adequat per un primer microscopi. La caixa s depriment per l’interior compensa.
stato un regalo … un successo….
L’unica punto negativo la mancanza delle istruzioni ma comunque provando si riesce a capire il funzionamento
This is far better than it looks.
The price doesn’t reflect to build.
It really is a good buy
The advertised pictures also show a multicolour filter disc under the platform this is not the case it only has different size holes, as I have reading difficulties I tend to go by images rather than descriptions to get the item in picture it’s about another 40 on top.
But rant over this is still a great item.
Ich habe lange nach einem Mikroskop gesucht, dass qualitativ und preislich ok ist. Dieses macht einen hochwertigen Eindruck (vermutlich aus Metall, kein Plastik). Es ist schnell aufgebaut und steht stabil und durch den Griff kann man es auch schnell mal mitnehmen. Zubehr ist dabei und mit den mitgelieferten Objektproben kann man sofort loslegen. Unsere 8jhrige Tochter ist begeistert und ich auch. Fr den Preis ein tolles Mikroskop. Von mir gibt’s eine klare Kaufempfehlung!!
El producto escogido dentro de la amplia variedad, cumple perfectamente con lo que buscaba y con lo escogido, lleg dentro del plazo y en perfecto estado
Great bit of kit, bought for my 9 year old niece who loves it. Sturdy construction and excellent optics. Great value. Not a ‘toy’ like some of the cheaper ones aimed at children.
Our son loves to use this microscope…..always looking for things to look at…
We have so enjoyed this product. We purchased this for an Escape Room we were designing and in the building process everyone at Escape The Space fell in love with it.
Two lighting strengths.
Three zooms ALL PROVIDE GREAT VIEW
Great focus controls
Color filters were a ton of fun to play with.
Good quality. Much better than a toy. Easily good enough for primary school, maybe secondary. Clear images of larger protozoa.
Pros:
Two eyepieces (10x & 25x) yielding magnifications of 40x, 100x, 250x, 400x and 1000x
Top and bottom LED lighting
Both sources of light can be varied in brightness to improve contrast
Like most microscopes you can use a cell phone camera held up to the lens to take pictures. This is very easy to do with the 25x eyepiece since I was able to rest the camera lens right on the eyepiece to help stabilize it.
Course and Fine focus knobs are smooth and work well even at 1000x
Comes with a well made plastic cover to protect the device when not in use.
Cons:
Lack of a carrying case
Top lighting cannot be used with the 40x objective due to it’s length and the position of the light
Slide Holders are too tight, once loosened they worked much better
I’m including a few pictures taken with my Cell Phone to show the range of magnification and a couple of examples:
The first slides are taken using a calibration slide, each division is equal to 0.01mm. Shots are 40x & 400x
The blue slide is Onion Skin
I highly recommend this device for students or anyone that just want a good Microscope at a low price.
Fantastic Microscope ! Glass optics – course and fine adjustments – light source – totally usable
This microscope is easier to use and the view is, in my limited experience, fantastic. It has a metal body and seems very robust.
My only criticism – and it’s not really a criticism – is that it didn’t come with many extras; just the microscope with a few slides (in a sturdy little case!) and a plastic cover. This meant I had to put together my own accessory kit in anticipation of my child wanting to make her own slides and her dad plans to make a protective case. Maybe the makers wanted to focus on presenting a quality microscope at a good price, with none of the fluff. Never mind, I was able to put together a good kit for less than 15 (sample pots, larger slide case, 72 slides, droppers, dissection kit etc). Also bought the Complete Book of the Microscope to go with it.
She hasn’t received it yet but I think she will love it.
You do want to be careful, because there isn’t a hard “stop” when the stage is brought up to the highest level, so it would be possible to keep turning the coarse focus knob and strip it. I just watch the stage and stop turning when it quits moving. I also supervise my son (age 8) when he uses the microscope to make sure he doesn’t make this mistake (or use the coarse focus with the 40X objective). Also, keep in mind that this microscope does not have a mechanical stage, so you move the slide on the stage by hand (for this low price, you would not expect a mechanical stage).
All in all, I’m very pleased with my purchase, and I highly recommend this microscope for casual use.
Also some of the slides arrived broken other than that it did work pretty well and my son loves i
Highly recommended for the young and older scientist in your home.my kids and I are constantly looking into a world we didnt know existed before.
Also, you can put your phones camera to the eye piece and get pretty good shots of your slide.
The item is a great item but I was disappointed with the delay of its delivery date.
Pros:
1. 2 LED’s, the second is an incidence light allowing you to see opaque objects. In layman terms, traditional microscopes are used for transparent samples and are lid from the bottom to the top. Opaque objects aren’t transparent so to view them you need the incidence light that is on top thus you watch reflected light off the speciment. Great for insect parts etc.
2. Both LED’s very bright, allowing for effective brightness control.
3. Very easy to focus, it has both a coarse and find adjustment.
4. Extremely well built, metal construction, with handle.
5. Power supply and batteries both supplied.
6. Fairly certain all lenses are glass ( very good, some of the other microscopes at this price range have at least some or all lenses made of plastic.
7. Nice set of filters for the light.
Negatives:
1. Very limited number of included prepared slides (5), new blank slides (5) and no bundled directions as you get with other beginner microscope for students. Keep in mind though that you can buy separately very nice kits with dozens of prepared samples and excellent books, so negative yes, but not a reason not to buy this, just remember to factor at least some extra prepared slides in your purchase, or read up on the net how to make your own ( and buy some more blank slides)
2. No included case, or back or any way to transport this easily, a dust cover ( sort of ) is in the box, but made of very cheap plastic and it won’t last.
Great mostly metal construction, clear glass optics, and both an overhead and lower led for viewing solid or translucent objects. Overall it’s a seriously great scope for the money. Will probably purchase another dual optical model in the future.
