A good microscope for advanced and beginner users
The build quality of this microscope is pretty solid. The fit and finish are okay, although the nose piece looks a bit rough and works quite well. This is the first microscope I've gotten from Amazon that has a proper platform to adjust it with. This is vital and being able to find your sample is essential. And it comes with the right oil for the highest magnification. The binocular eyepieces are adjustable, although they don't look like it. They use the Siedentopf head, which is preferable to a sliding head. One of the pre-fixed slides was not properly fixed so finding the sample was not easy, but the other two were fine! The coverslips are far too small for the slides and will move when the mineral oil is on them. The overall quality and visibility is super good and clear. I think it's really great for both beginners and intermediates.
