500pcs Hemocytometer Glass Cover Slip, 26mm Length, 22mm Width LAB Professional Glass Cover Slips

Excelent

The slips are fine. But they came in these cheap, flimsy boxes that no one would ever store, use or ship them in! Made in China…. I should have expected that kind of low quality container. I ordered some several years ago from a U.S. manufacturer and they came in a hard plastic container and insulated with foam… serious, can’t the manufacturer make at least a little effort?

These cover slips shipped in thin cardboard boxes, inside a sealed plastic bag. Some of the boxes showed dents. However, there was zero damage, with all cover slips in good shape. They are glass, very thin, and work well with my grandson’s microscope. Despite the apparent fragility, I have dropped two of these, from standing position onto the floor, and they did not break or crack. Having 500 in the order, I feel it’s a great deal for the price. Recommended!

All the cover slips of the five boxes were covered with mold at their arrival, despite the fact that the boxes came inside a sealed plastic bag.

Each set of slides are wrapped in a small sheet of tissue paper. I've opened one box and all #500 were intact, clean.

The thickness is not 0.5mm. It is much less. It is only about 0.32mm thick.

Super transparent, thin microscope glass slides/slips you can use for personal projects. They are very clear and clean. I've put them on different surfaces so you get an idea in attached photos. I suggest you open the box on a paper sheet or cloth. They are so transparent it sometimes seems near invisible to the naked eye. Keeping them on cloth or paper reduces risk of them getting on your table, desk, carpet and shattering into microscopic pieces. They are fragile as to be expected. On examining them close I find some are stuck together so tightly that I thought it was a mix of thin and thick slides. Not so. Just beware some of these paper thin slides tend to stick together so you may need to gently pry some apart. There are 500 in the entire set. A good deal and competitive price.

This is regarding the MUHWA Glass Cover Slip 26mm Length 22mm Width 0.5mm Thickness LAB Professional Glass Cover Slips Hemocytometer (Bundle of 500). These work.well as slide covers. I had good results with a tissue sample I wanted to keep wet. The packaging feels very low quality, but it works and you get a lot of them. They are exactly the same size as the ones I've used for the last 20 years. This is a good purchase at this price point.
