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. Designed for students to learn science for years of continued observations, it has full optical glass elements, metal framework, two eyepieces (10X and 25X), 360 degree rotatable monocular head, and coarse & fine focusing. The microscope offers five magnification settings, 40X, 100X, 250X, 400X, and 1000X. The light sources use either an outlet (adapter included) or three AA batteries (included). This microscope is perfect for academics in home school for students in elementary to high school.
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.

I really wanted to like it but…Not compatible with accessories. This is a gorgeous, solid-built microscope and I was really excited to get it and share the wonderful microscopic world with my daughters.Upon receipt, I quickly opened the package and made sure it would work before showing to my girls, as working with a low quality one can quickly become a frustrating experience and you end up with an expensive paper weight.Here are my issues: *The lighting is decent, although I’m used to dimming light source (adjustable brightness -which…
Wonderful, Incredible Microscope/Deal; Packaging from HELL!!!! 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…
Great Beginner Microscope for All Ages My granddaughter couldn’t wait till her birthday party was over so that she could start exploring! Water from their pond, leaves from every plant (dozens) on their property, dog hair, spit… lol good quality for a decent price. I have tried the cheaper ones for kids before and they are worthless. This one actually is usable and came with a warranty. Also solid, not cheap flimsy plastic.
