Reviews
:
"I have spent well over $1500 on microscopes claiming to be "Clinical or Medical Grade" instruments and have been sorely disappointed by all of them. To anyone who thinks that they can find a quality binocular microscope with outstanding optics for less somewhere else, then go waste your money. I have been there and done that! The optics in the OM88 are in my opinion OUTSTANDING, for the price no one I believe will find a better instrument anywhere. Believe me I have looked for well over a year, until now. A "Very Well Done" to you. You have accomplished what your competitors have not been able to do! I really mean that. I only wish that I had come to you first. I could have saved a lot of money and time. Thank You." -- K. Ramos (this comment was made concerning the binocular version of this same microscope).
