Bresser Microscope Advance ICD 10-160x

Product of good optical quality with a wide range of adjustments

Excellent optical microscope for this price range, I mainly use it for gemmology.

The idea is good, but the execution is far less so. The halogen lamp heats up a lot; it's badly positioned to the point that when you move it, you end up burning your fingers. The included Barlow is quite useless because it makes everything too dark. In short, it doesn't justify the price.
