5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Microscope for Learning and Fun!

The magnification range from 100X to 2000X is impressive and perfect for exploring everything from plant cells to tiny organisms. It’s well-built, easy to use, and comes with a nice set of prepared slides to get started right away. The included phone adapter is a great bonus—it lets us take pictures and share what we see. Ideal for home education or school projects. Great value for the price!
5.0 out of 5 stars Very impressed
Very nice professional style microscope! This was my favorite thing to use in elementary school and I’m so excited to have this for my granddaughter to get her excited about science too! It’s heavy and well made. Comes with so much stuff! Works very well
5.0 out of 5 stars The price is good for an excellent product
perfect tool. Not for kids but they could use them. We live on a farm and occasionally have to examine animal poop (Yuk) but this is very clear to what is and what is not there.
4.0 out of 5 stars Good value, even if what you think would be included is not.
This microscope was great value for the price in my opinion. I’m very happy with the top and bottom lighting. It’s easy to use, to focus, and teach to kids. Even my sullen teen was interested and engaged. It gets the job done and was fun and simple, what more can you ask for?My complaints are not big. One is the length of the power cord - pretty short if you’re not in a lab with outlets set into the table. The microscope must be used on a flat surface but you can barely reach the wall from the table with this.Also? It contained blank slides but no slide covers which is insane to me. I kept checking the box repeatedly thinking I’d missed something. I do believe the kit should have included slide covers and maybe a scalpel & some tweezers. For a few dollars more it could save the buyer the time and cost of having to go and buy a slide prep kit. From the description it seemed these things would be included. Comments even mention color filters being included which … well I didn’t get those. Maybe this was a return but truthfully it seems anything you get from Bolo these days is missing something.So yes buyers take note of those things but I still recommend the microscope.
5.0 out of 5 stars My 8 year old loves it
My 8 year old bought this in my account for himself. I was upset at first but realized it's such a great purchase. He uses it to look at so many things around the house. He shows it off to his friends. This was completely worth the purchase.
5.0 out of 5 stars It is good quality
Love it
5.0 out of 5 stars Small But Mighty
Better than expected. I purchased this in order to analysis the gut health of my honey bees. This does the job and more. I didn't need an expensive scope but this small microscope not only provides me with the magnification needed but also some added features found on the expensive ones, top and bottom lights, condenser and various light filters. I like how I can take pictures with my phone of the field of view as well for historic visual records along with the prepared slides. Very satisfied with this purchase.
1.0 out of 5 stars Even as a toy it underdelivers
I bought this as just a hobby scope and given its price, I didn't expect either a precision instrument or one that came close to the advertised 1200x magnification. What I didn't expect was one that maxed out at just over 100x.The site description says 1x-1200x with zoom. OK, I figured 4x digital zoom so that meant something like 1x-300x optical and probably the scope was going to cheat a bit at the high end but 250x was fine by me. Heck, even if it was 200x I wouldn't be giving this a 1 star review though that clearly isn't close to 300x. When I tested out the magnification using actual measurements, on the low end I got 6x and on the high, 75x. The 6x was driven by the fact that raising the optical tube to its highest position (high=low power, low=high power), I couldn't focus it. Unlike some other similar scopes, focusing isn't done via a wheel on the optical barrel but turning a knob. When the tube was raised to its limit and I turned the focusing knob, I saw the image start to come into focus and then hit the knob limit. It wouldn't have made a huge difference, maybe getting down to 5x but this was just one more bad design flaw. At the high power end of things, I could focus OK but the magnification wasn't there. Then we get to the zoom feature. This is a digital zoom, not optical, so one could achieve the same effect by displaying the image on a larger screen; increase the screen area by 4x and you'd get a picture 4x as large. But the 4x zoom didn't come close to 4x. Again I measured the image on the 7" display and the 4x actually delivered 1.5x enlargement. When the smoke settled, what I got was 6x - 112x, as accurately as I could measure it, vs. 1x - 1200x in the site description and enclosed product documentation. That is unacceptable. That is too far off to deserve anything but a one star rating. As for any pluses...The stage and support were made of metal which surprised me. The microscope was held firmly in place in a mounting ring by two set screws and while I feared the tube would not remain at some given height, this was an unfounded fear in that there was a set screw to hold the tube and attached display at whatever distance from the target desired. The display was suitably bright but seemed washed out to me. I didn't try and take any pictures so I don't know how that function worked.I can't recommend this as performance is way to different from the site description for the manufacturer to get a pass. They should change it to reflect actual performance, say it's a hobby scope for numismatists and philatelists, and work to get the low end performance closer to 1x. People who buy it would then not be disappointed as it would not only match the product description but also would match the buyer's needs. As it is, if you purchase it expecting optical performance to be anywhere close to 1x-300x, I don't see how you won't be disappointed.Update: After posting this review, I received 3 emails asking me to delete the review in return for a $30 Bolo gift card. I responded to the third, explained why I believe the review was accurate, and said their product description should be changed to reflect their product's performance rather than me deleting my review. Since that 13 June 2021 email until today, 8 July, I've received 12 additional emails all asking me to delete my review in return for compensation. I believe what I wrote is an accurate description of the product so I won't be deleting it but do think it's worthwhile posting how aggressively they are trying to make this review disappear.
Excellent microscope

Images are perfectly clear. US seller included an Australian power adapter without being asked.
Excelente
Excelente producto. La pantalla de 7 pulgadas te permite ver cada detalle, además que incluya memoria de 32 GB es un Plus muy bueno por que te ayuda a pasar los archivos a la PC.La iluminación es muy buena, y los ángulos en los que se puede mover también ayudan mucho.Algo muy importante es que puedes llevartelo a donde quieras por que incluye bateria recargable u puedes ver lo que encuentres en el campo
Great
I wasn't overly happy with this product, however the seller made it more than right
the unit is useless as the power supply is not suitable for Australian use
1. Comes with the wrong power supply as it is not useable in Australia.2. No instructions to set up for mobile phone3. The manual that came with it is 100% useless4. The manual does not explain what the items are or how to use them.Apart from the above it looks great as I brought it to see what it was like as I would like to get a much better one.
Great for those inquisitive kid
I bought this for my grandson for his 8th birthday, and he was so excited to receive this. It was easy to set up and he quickly understood what lens to use and how to amplify what he was looking at. While he enjoyed the slides provided, he was quickly sourcing other things, like his mom's hair, and trying to capture a snowflake (that was interesting). Totally satisfied, a great science tool for his current age, but the best part is the ability for him to continue to use as he advances through school.
