We love it! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars This "toy" really works. *by F***K on Reviewed in the United States on January 12, 2019* Thais was a birthday present for an extremely bright 7 year old grandson. It really works. Nothing like the one granddad had as a kid. Well built. Good starter equipment with the kit. So far he has had lots of hours with it. Highly recommended. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Impressed the teacher! *by D***9 on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2017* I bought this for my son's class science themed gift basket fundraiser. It comes with everything you need and is safe for younger science enthusiasts. I even got a note from my son's teacher thanking us for the donation; it's the best one she had seen for the raffle. It was shipped quickly and received in perfect condition. I may order another one for my son since he was anxious to use it himself --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/39596552-kids-beginner-toy-microscope-kit-with-prepared-slides-led-100x](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/39596552-kids-beginner-toy-microscope-kit-with-prepared-slides-led-100x) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-19*
