Review on Elikliv Microscope Magnification Observing Soldering by Jeff Drollinger

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Amazing girth but the stand is terrible.

I rarely leave reviews, it's probably worth it as I rely on them to make a purchase. However I immediately had to comment on this product, this thing is ready to use with all the features it had, waited for the negative and found it as soon as I turned it on, fully charged the battery, took two samples slides, curious what this cool thing me is supposed to point and went to focus and boom, the focus knob isn't turning, consider I got up and running in less than five minutes out of the box. No instructions, AMAZING figure pack or anything to stop it from spinning, upon closer inspection and in disbelief the base that this AMAZING scope sat on was the cheapest stand I have ever picked up if you're heavy with disbelief breathe scope will wobble, shame on anyone wielding that scope with that stand. After an hour and a half of careful polishing, I was able to rotate the focus of the nob. That being said, and being new to what I know now, I WILL STILL BUY THIS THING. The dual lens visor with all the features makes it remarkable. And I would recommend it to a friend, I'm sure it was a quality control note, the packaging was fantastic and if the scope holds up I will use it every day.

Pros
  • Inspires confidence
Cons
  • Unfashionable
