My daughter loves this kit. The microscope really works, it's durable and she loves the different types of things she can see with it. Shes made so many different experiments with the different things included in the kit and shes even taking an interest in science. It made her happy so it makes me happy as well.

This kit comes with everything your little scientist needs to get started exploring the microscopic world. We did purchase some extra pre-made slides, but the package hasn't even been opened yet! I only gave this kit 4 out of 5 for durability because in the first two days we went through BOTH of the light bulbs provided. They each burned out after about 30 minutes of use. Not sure why this is, but we are going to try to find replacements. However, the mirror light source works well too, but must be used during the day.

Horrible! Bought this for my daughter to help her interest grow and she is more frustrated (along with me) than anything. Terrible light / mirror - bulb goes off if you breathe on it wrong. Can't focus sharply on anything. Useless. Don't waste your money or time.
