Customer Rating: - Fun toy
This toy can be addictive! You'll find yourself hunting for things to look at when you take it out of the box. Comes with a lightweight case, which is nice for storage, and definitely easy to use. At first, we found everything to be a bit blurry, but then - oops - found the focus knob! That definitely helped a lot, LOL. Don't expect the quality of a science lab microscope, but for general household objects (i.e. salt, skin, hair, tabletops, etc.) it's great. A nice change of pace from video games and television for the kids. Uses 2 AA batteries (not AAA as stated in one other review). This would make a great gift for any child over age 5 or 6, so you may want to get several to keep on hand for those birthday parties that pop up!

Customer Rating: - for children of all ages
great product. easy to use. better than the pocket microscope you can get at radio shack and much easier to operate. only one wheel for focusing instead of two. highly recommended.

Customer Rating: - pocket micro
Loved this microscope. I prefer it over higher magnification microscopes because you can pick up everyday items like sugar, salt, pencil erasings, hair strands, etc. and see them so detailed.

Customer Rating: - Disappointing Quality
I ordered 30 microscopes. Six of the microscopes did not work - the probems ranged from shattered bulbs, to bulbs that did not work, to several microscopes that wouldn't work after trouble shooting by trying a new bulb, new batteries, etc. That boils down to only 24 working microscopes out of the 30 microscopes that were ordered.
