Levenhuk LabZZ M101 Amethyst 640x Portable Educational Kids Microscope Science Kit with LED Light, STEM Toys Accessory Set, Blank & Prepared Sample Slides, Beginner Experiment Guide for Children (ES)

Great little microscope for any inquisitive child. My son who turned 9 wanted one for his birthday and I am satisfied this was a good choice. It comes with a neat kit with plenty of slides and a handy booklet to get them started. Comes with some experiment ideas like yeast etc for them to prepare their own slide. Great price and microscope is good quality. Onyl thing missing is a lab coat for the full feel. Definitely a great buy.

Arrived today so still getting to know it but so far very impressed. It feels sturdy and solid. The light is dimmable so you can choose its brightness. Good adjustability to the height, and lenses work fine. Image quality is good, as good as I remember from my school days. It comes with several pre-filled glass slides for instant use. There is also a micro-shrimp growing kit for fun experiments. Can't wait to show this to my little nephew. He's a little too young to handle the glass slides (and I've removed the microtome from the kit for now), so I bought a set of kids' plastic pre-filled slides and those also work well in this microscope.

Very impressive for the price. A great way to introduce people to microscopic things. The included samples are fine and has some spare empty slides but no slide covers which would have been helpful.

This has got to be the BEST educational item I have bought my son in his entire life and he is 12 in less than 2 weeks! WE have not stopped using it since it arrived and that was nearly 10 hours ago! The microscope itself is a sturdy and child-friendly design, with an excellent range of magnification settings which are all crystal clear. The booklets and accessories included (featuring several prepared slides and a range of different experiments including your own sea monkeys to grow and observe) make this brilliant value for under £30. My son and I were astonished at what was included for the price and have already planned to start growing the sea monkeys tomorrow before school! We would give this TEN stars if we could!

I wanted a good budget microscope for the little one to cut his teeth on, a lot of the cheaper ones are just flat garbage! But I took a chance o this and it's great.. hits the spot perfectly on cheap and functional.. more than happy with this set.. and came incredibly fast too which was an extra bonus... more than recommended if your looking for a decent first scope that actually works but don't want to pay the earth..

It's quite hard to use because of the flimsy construction: it wobbbles, which matters a lot when you're trying to focus on something tiny. OK as a toy, for a patient child. Reasonable value I suppose since it's one of the cheaper microscopes listed.

Really good microscope.I was skeptical to this item. But price and quality is impressive. It came with lab kit and batteries. You can do lights more brighter and less.Bought for my son's 7 year birthday.We watched samples which are in kit, and throughout magnifying lenses you can see tiny things very clear.I did take sample from mould ( which growed on lemon) and i was impressed how beautiful it is. Without microscope you cannot see all spores. My husband was exploring that mould spores for an hour,moving sample glass different ways to see it from all sides.So it's very interesting for adults and kids.I'm not disappointed. I'm impressed!!!Thanks for this microscope.

Lightweight to use, easy set up and although takes a minute each time to get a clear view it's quality is good. Extra slides kept my daughter amused picking up things from garden and house to look at.
