Pros & Cons
Pros
Each slide slot is numbered with a sheet that can be mounted on the lid for that number's content. The boxes are nice too, everything fits snugly. Most have some debris inside the mount, but not too bad.
We use them in our homeschool learning and the kids ask to look at them in their free time. It is not bad for a student. Definitely gets the curiosity flowing of my son.
This set is well made with lots of wonderful things to marvel at. It gets points for its wide range of specimens, and for its low cost, but loses a point for uneven stain quality.
Cons
Incredibly poor quality. No way. The wooden boxes have rough edges on them.

I the box is there if they are interested but then they do not come across anything they do not intend to see

So i can truly say that having seen these slides if you can’t see what is on the slide you may need to upgrade your microscope

There are tons of slides here obviously

You can spend an awful long time looking at them

Some others less so but i suppose there are pretty significant differences in the difficulty of staining and mounting certain specimens
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Probably my biggest complaint is that some of the mounting medium is not very clear
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
Not sure what they used but it can be a little hazy and have lots of suspended particles in some cases
