But when I looked at my arm without the Eyeclops, no possible cancerous growths were evident) The Eyeclops is a great toy (tool) to use to explore a world we almost never get to see. We were able to see stuff we wouldn't be able to see without the aid of a microscope (and we all know how difficult that is to use). From denim to coins to skin (I couldn't believe all of the discolorations on my skin - I got a bit nervous that I should see a dermotologist. This is a great "toy" for kids as well as adults. Highly recommended (I ordered from Amazon for $40) but look for it on sale. The items can easily move out of focus so it takes a steady hand. It takes some time to connect to your tv (I used a Panasonic 42" Plasma) and learn how to focus. However, the images are amazing.
I know things happen such as this, and it was probably just "bad luck" for me---but I would not advise paying more than $20.00 for this. I purchased this for my son last Christmas (I paid around 40.00 new for it on Amazon, but noticed the price has doubled). We can great fun with it until the next day it broke.
We've looked at just about everything. This is awesome. Way easier to use for a small child than a microscope. Some everyday things are quite gross magnified but thats what gets my son interested and makes learning fun. Everyone in our house, kids and adults, like to check things out with it. Great for exploring our world up close.
There are very clear instructions on how to focus and it is easy to do in seconds. Everyone in our house has fun with this thing. The picture is always clear. My son at the age of 10 had no problems with it. We have used it to look at just about ANYTHING. It is so easy to just hook right up, we stop and look at things when we are cooking, or cleaning, or someone just randomly comes across something and thinks, "hey, I wonder what this would look like blown up".AS long as you focus the eyeclops and then every once in a while make sure the focus didn't get messed up it is easy to see stuff.
It is a good indoor toy. My favorite thing about it is watching my two youngest kids, 9 and 5, run around together looking for things to look at. Got them interested in all kinds of things and got them asking lots of questions. This was a great gift. Very unique and interesting.
