Lens are of very poor quality, body of the microscope flexes and moves when using the focus wheel which makes it very difficult to get anything correctly in focus at lower magnification and impossible at the higher values. One feature that makes this microscope so fascinating is the inclusion of a smartphone adaptor which allows the user to take still or moving records of the images seen through the viewfinder.

Modelled on the classic microscope format, the unit has three main lenses, arranged on a turret for instant selection, giving magnification from 40 x to 640x. Product is just not fit for purpose and I would suggest people look at other products for their kids first microscope. The lens revolver allows a quick change between magnifications and the battery powered illumination allows mobile use.
