I have to say that I am amazed at how small this it. Depending on what you are using it for, it can be very versatile.
As with a few of the other reviews, mine was used to check trichromes. It does the job well and will help you determine when your stuff is done.
excellent for Trichome viewing

Bottom Line:

With this tool, you can see trichomes perfectly. When trichomes turn from clear to milky or amber it is time to harvest. This is the best way to determine when your crop is perfectly ripe. If you need to know this information, you NEED this tool, and heck, for the price you can't go wrong. Highly recommended!

Works well enought for [$] but If your serious about it, you may want to drop a little more cash and get a real microscope. Works well enought for lookign at trichromes and deciding when to harvest your bud. which if you can't tell by the other reviews .. apears to be what 90% of people use this device for.

Cons:
Bulky, Flimsy Construction, Not Effective
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend
I thought this was a real microscope. Turns, out, its not! I thought it had a lense on the bottem, so I put water containing a larve in it. I couldn't see a thing. Besides that, My larvae died. Im disappointed.
Works well and is inexpensive

I used the microscope to see the dots of ink on a printed page, and I must say, this is far better than a loupe at doing so. You'd better get one quick, though; they said that these were being discontinued (I got the last one at the store I went to).
