Omano OM115LD 2-in-1 マイクロスコープギフトセット

This is a great little microscope for budding young scientists! It is sturdy, nicely weighted so it doesn't slide around, easy to adjust. The images are exceedingly crisp. Setting the microscope up was either a little tricky placing the lens in the stem, or the "installers" were a little confused:) Ultimately everything ended up in the right place. In retrospect, we probably should have let our little 8 year old scientist assemble it! Beyond the sturdiness of the scope, what is particularly nice is that it has three magnification Levels - 40x, 100x, 400x, and dual lights. After researching microscopes for days I came to understand that many in the same price range have single magnification and/or one light source if any. It comes with 5 prepared slides which really jumpstarted her curiosity. She has been using the blank slides to examine various specimens she finds around the house. The stains, test tube, forceps, lens papers, etc. really complete the set. The enclosed book is very comprehensive! She has not used it much yet, but it's a great resource for later explorations. Many reviewers have commented that a case would have been nice, and would have been. However, a dust cover is provided, and truthfully our scientist prefers to have it out at her disposal at all times because she is always finding something she needs to examine. This microscope can easily carry her through to high school I believe.

I was so pleasantly surprised by the outstanding customer service I received after calling the company when the lights didn't work on the unit we initially received. A real person answered the phone, patiently walked me through some possible fixes, and once we'd determined the wiring was likely defective, sent a replacement at no charge, which he said he'd personally test before shipping! The new unit works great and my 13-year-old is having so much fun and actually ENJOYING LEARNING! The ability to view solid objects is so awesome for any age (I'm having fun with it too!) and the included experiment cards are amazing. Highly recommend!

We saw this microscope being used by a park naturalist and were impressed, so we bought our own. Easy to use. Comes with glass slides, tweezers. A good start for kids or adults.

This is the second microscope I have purchased for my grandchildren. As a veteran Biology teacher, I can't tell you how impressed I am with this scope. I have microscopes in my classroom costing 8 times what this scope costs and the quality of this JuniorScope is amazing and honestly superior to the "more sophisticated" scopes in my classroom. The prepared slides that are included are also of excellent quality. The scope is easy to use and focus for young scientists and the ability to make their own slides and look at the things they find in their yards and homes is great. I am also impressed with the ease of focus. You truly can't go wrong with this microscope for your young scientists.

We were worried that the quality of the microscope would be poor for the price we paid, but were surprised to find that it’s a pretty good microscope! It’s a very simple and easy to use for our 9 and 12 year old kids, the accessories, prepared slides, and the companion book was perfect for stepping them through how to prepare slides and use and care for the microscope. The only letdown for us was how limited the scope is for magnification. This particular scope only goes to 40x while other similar scopes might go as high as 200x. It’s a good scope for the price and definitely helps keep our kids excited about science and biology!
