AmScope 40X-1000X Cordless Student Microscope with Slide Preparation Kit and World of The Microscope Book M150C-SP14-CLS-50P100S-WM

In addition to Methylene Blue and slides, this model, M150C, was recommended in our homeschool curriculum, which caused me to think that this kit would be the most cost-effective option. In the instructions, it is stated to check the tightness of the objective lenses, which I did and they were all snug, but nothing is mentioned In the view, there was a wire that was cutting into the view. I wasn't sure if it was necessary or there were precautions being taken to hold the lenses more securely Fortunately, we do not have to worry about that anymore. During her transition from the 10x eyepiece to the 25x eyepiece, part of the 10x eyepiece fell back into the body tube, and part of the wire and one of the lenses fell to The wire was found a few days after it was lost, so I was able to assemble it (minus the wire) but the 10x eyepiece has scratches or small chips. As I looked at slides, one or both of the lenses were scratched. Using the 25x eyepiece only makes sense with slides that we've made already, but the eyepiece seems pointless for the slides we've already created. In fact, the cover slides of this book are square, as you can see in the photo. The fact that we use the cover slide now seems bizarre, as when I was younger, we used another slide as the cover slide to ensure the two pieces were sealed together. A label would be placed on one of the sides where the slides are It crossed my mind to possibly purchase a case for the slides my daughter made, but that would be pointless since the cover would fall off when the slides were put side by side. So, for now, we Taking care of slides in this manner is not the best option, but it seems to be the only choice we have. It is a little rock in a bottle that must be added water in order to work. In the absence of instructions, I simply added as much water as I could without squirting the blue back out. (The bottle's top does not come off, so you must.

This microscope would have been more difficult if I had no experience, but even that small amount of experience was sufficient to make it simple to use. One mistake was made I had to assemble the piece, but customer service was great on Amazon, and I have since ordered additional pieces through amscope directly, which was really convenient.

With its sturdy construction and excellent optics, it is very well made. I like the slides that are prepared. They aren't anything special, but the rest of the package is quite useful. Despite my purchase, I am satisfied with it.

The box for the item is not present in other reviews. In the case of a gift, there is no way to know what it is, whether it is new or used. It cannot be given in a properly wrapped and presented manner if intended to be a gift. I received the product packaged in a beat up shipping box with styrofoam in between. It seems as if they've been thrown It is also not recommended for beginners or children. For families looking for something kid-friendly and fun for children, this is not the game. It is unprofessional of the seller to ignore emails regarding returns and to give an endless amount of spiel about.
