Bought this for my son’s seventh birthday and he’s barely left it alone. The magnification is plenty for onion skin, a bit of his own hair and a dead wasp from the windowsill. Only reservation is that the light is a touch dim in the evening, but that’s a small thing really.

Ordered a few things from here before and this lived up to the usual standard. Solid build, came quickly, and the prepared slides are a nice extra. Would have liked a couple more blank slides in the box, but nothing to grumble about.

Got this for my grandson Alfie and his smile when he spotted the tiny hairs on a bee’s leg was a picture. Easy for him to use. Lovely.

Bought this for my granddaughter’s birthday, and she hasn’t put it down since! She’s spent hours exploring everything from leaves to pennies. It’s sturdy enough for her little hands, and I’m chuffed seeing her so engaged in learning.

Brilliant piece of kit. Was curious myself, so had a go at examining a few strands of hair under it. Spot on for kids who want to see the world close up. Even caught my fancy with its clarity!
