Can't rate it 0, but that is exactly what I would rate it. This was going to be a stocking stuffer for my science boy, but it does not work. Cannot see anything. So glad I tried it out before Santa put it in the stocking. The low price should have been an indicator of quality, but I thought I would try it because of the good reviews. Not worth the shipping to send it back---it went in the trash.

There is a little round hollow peg bouncing around under the clear plastic cover and no directions. Light is not very helpful it is in wrong place. I'm still trying to figure out what the round hollow peg is for.

My 8yo son and I keep grabbing this from each other. We had another handheld for years, but it did not compare to this in either magnification power, image clarity, ease of use or sturdiness. My son spends ours examining magazine pictures, plants, fabrics, surfaces... whatever he can think of. A great value.

I was disappointed to find that the built-in light provides little illumination under the lens. To use the microscope effectively, I always need a separate light source. The need to hold a flashlight in one hand and the microscope in the other makes it impossible to draw pictures, take notes, or hold an object while looking at it.
