Customer Reviews
Bought this monocular biological microscope for home demonstration and student tutoring. The glass optics and dual LED brightfield lighting produce crisp cellular detail rivaling university lab units.
As an Open University biology student, this monocular compound microscope is perfect. The slide starter kit and smartphone adapter allowed me to submit clear photos for my assignments immediately.
Outstanding value for £60.99. The metal body is sturdy and the fine focus adjustment knob allows precise focusing at 1000x magnification.
Excellent student biological microscope. The LED lighting is bright and clear. My only minor wish is a hard carrying case, but the included dust cover works fine.
Superb quality brightfield microscope! The smartphone camera adapter fits my iPhone easily and takes remarkably clear biological slide photos.
Great compound microscope for adults getting into microscopy. Optics are clear and delivery to Wales took less than 24 hours.
Impressed by the solid feel and bright dual lighting. Exploring micro-life from local ponds has been fascinating.
