this is a beautiful microscope. everything is as it should be. it comes with adequate cleaning and care supplies. [a free microscope starter set offer.] the customer service of this company is exemplary. an item arrived broken, and they replaced it immediately. when you call customer service, a human being picks up the phone. i will definitely continue to use this company for further science education materials.

Professional Quality
Reviewed By: Barbara Morale 
I ordered this Ultimate Home Binocular Microscope from Home Science Tools and it arrived quickly and safely. It has a very professional quality (I am a Medical Technologist) to it as well as excellent optics. This is exactly what I needed for homeschooling our 12 year old daughter! We have also had other homeschoolers use it and even the 6 year old was able to view slides through it easily.

Good microscope
 
This is a very good microscope! I worked in a laboratory before resigning to stay at home and homeschool my children, so I am used to a very high quality microscope, and this fits the bill! The microscope is built of sturdy materials and has a good weight to it. The light source is clear and strong. The objectives go up to 100x (oil immersion) to clearly see the nucleus of cells. I recommend binocular microscopes because of the greater comfort in using them. If you are going to use the scope often, binocular is the way to go. I have used this microscope for two years now and it still functions beautifully.
