Meade 51-Piece Student Research Microscope/ 9260

Meade 51-Piece Student Research Microscope/ 9260

From the cube-shaped structure of common table salt to microorganisms within a drop of pond water, the Model 9260 enables the inquiring child or adult hobbyist to explore a hidden realm of unimagined detail with magnifications of up to 400x. Precise focusing of the image is by means of a rack-and-pinion focusing system.

Meade 51-Piece Microscope/ 9260, 11/01/2009

I found some dead bugs and saw the tiniest details about them. The setup and use was quick and easy, very user friendly. The basic functions are very intuitive. The instructions could be a little more thorough and written for younger folks to better understand the different aspects that can be done with it. Over all the device seems very stable and of quality build (mostly metal components not plastic)

We purchased this microscope for our ever-studious 11yo daughter. She was awake past midnight studying everything under the sun (or moon) and noting observations of like/different magnifications. I am so happy she is getting such joy and educational value with this microscope.

This product contained many things, but had a couple of the checmicals almost missing (as if someone had messed with it), and had a missing cleaning cloth.
Overall the product seems relatively easy to use; the mirror light was a bit ackward to use af first, but is ok.
