Got this set and an extra set of prepared slides for my 8-1/2 year old great-grandson's Christmas. He's a bit advanced for his age and loves learning about any and everything. And this microscope set opened up a new world for him to enjoy and investigate.
Brought as a Christmas gift and it was immediately loved by a very smart 7 year old. He's been looking at everything from bits of fruit to hair!
Bought for the kiddo for Christmas/Birthday. I arrived in great condition and still in plastic.
Gave this to my son as a Christmas gift. He loved using it and he is only 8. I think a mature 8 year old can handle this professional toy/tool.
Got for my 6 year old. Kit is ok. Parts are plastic which makes sense for kids. Largest zoom touches stage.

Came in a case and all the accessories. However, the slides were all over the place inside, and one was broken. I like the prepared slides to start the process quickly! Stems and bulbs of plants. My 6 year old is intrigued!
But for my grandkids for Christmas they seem to like it a lot it'll be fun when summer comes to look at all new things.
