  • Quite disappointed

    This product got good reviews so I got it. Alas, very disappointed. No matter what I look at all I really see are the floaters inside my eye! It has 300, 600, 1200 magnification, but for a small thing like this that is way too high. Nothing can be seen. Something like 10x to 50x would make more sense. The viewing area (circle) is tiny and nothing gets into focus. The mechanism that moves the viewpiece up and down to focus is loose so if you don't hold it with your fingers it falls down to the bottom. I imagine the other similar products, at these low costs, might have the same problems. But essentially, it was useless to me, although the 5 year old is interested in the concept. And the book that came with it is nice
