Rated 2 out of 5 by from Broke too easily First one was a gift and used for a little while before breaking very easily in a way that could not be fixed. Just got a second one and broke the same place within a few minutes of being out of the box. My child was very excited about this toy but sad when she can no longer use it.

Rated 2 out of 5 by from Not very sturdy Should be fun for examining small objects with a toddler. However it is not well made. The front piece with the eye pieces fell off as I opened the box. The wires for the light are still intact so I will attempt to glue it so we can get a little use out of it. Since it was a gift I cannot return it.

Rated 1 out of 5 by from I will not buy this product again! I bought two of these for our classrooms. One arrived broken. I returned one and the replacement arrived broken. Used the unbroken one for one day in the classroom and picked it up and it broke in my hand while carrying it. So disappointed as the students were very eager. The knobs are not strong. The part where the viewer attaches to the base is very flimsy and on all three occasions that is where they were broken. I want so very much to find a sturdy microscope for our students. Anyone have any suggestions where I can buy one that will hold up?

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Loved by our 3 year old My son absolutely loves this product! Spends so long drilling the screws in and out. He's going through a real love of letters so the letter cards it comes with have been a huge added bonus. Would highly recommend

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect sized microscope for little hands This is the perfect first microscope for toddlers/preschoolers. Both my 3.5 year old and 5 year old couldn't wait for their turn to look at things up close. I love how even the hand grip is perfect for their little hands and the LED light and magnifier helps for them to examine different things closely that they found around the house. They really enjoyed looking at their rock collection using the microscope and they mentioned how much clearly they can see using the microscope. With the weather (hopefully) warming up soon, we plan to go on a nature walk and collect some things that they want to look closely using their new microscope. The microscope itself is very durable and high quality and even though my 3.5 year old has been a little rough with it, it still works perfectly. I love that my kids are learning about science without even realizing it! I love getting not only my kids educational toys but I also try and buy educational toys for other kids' presents. This would be the perfect birthday and/or christmas gift and I love how it comes in two different colors.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Great product; not sure about magnification My son loves the idea of this microscope and is always keen to have a look through it but he gets bored quite quickly because, and this may just be a problem with my particular example, the magnification is rather disappointing. In no circumstances is it anything approaching 8x. It seems more like 1.5x - that is, something that is about an inch across will appear under the microscope to be about 1.5 inches. I don't think there's anything I've missed operationally to increase the magnification; it's just rather underwhelming. But the absence of any similar comments here leads me to believe that it's a problem with my item. I would recommend it to a friend, with this caveat.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Science is fun! We received this in exchange for my honest review. I was excited to get my 4 year old daughter started in the science field. Kids are naturally curious and love to learn. The microscope is easy to use and I am comfortable letting her walk around with it. It's solid plastic. It's brightly colored with all the basic parts of a regular microscope - lens, light, knob, etc. Children look through with both eyes and that's very helpful for little ones. The stage is big enough to place objects on it. I was struggling a little with what to have her look at. I was overthinking it. We tried a leaf and a few toys within reach. After she understood what to do she choose other objects to look at. I'm always happy to see when she randomly goes to her microscope to look at something. This is a fun first microscope and would make a cute gift for a boy or girl.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Every child should have this Definitely meant for 3 yr olds. This is child friendly, entertains kids for a long time and it introduces science.
