ESSENSON Outdoor Explorer Kit & Bug Catcher Kit with Binoculars, Compass, Magnifying Glass, Critter Case and Butterfly Net Great Toys Kids Gift for Boys & Girls Age 3-12 Year Old Camping Hiking

Great product at a great price, butterfly net is pretty short and flimsy (but it is a kids set). Only issue was Amazon shipped it in the product's box and then delivered to my front porch after a rainy morning. Still waiting to see if I'll be able to dry out the box and make it look okay enough to give as a gift but may have to find an alternative box for the items.

I love it...my grandson will love it

Great product for kids who are interested in bugs!!

My son Was super excited to get this set. He's been using it everyday. He loves that he can look at the bugs up close with the magnifying glass and in the little container with the magnifying lid. A few negatives, the net it comes with is tiny. My fault for not taking a closer look and seeing how small it would be. But you can't really catch anything with it, especially bigger butterflies and dragonflies. I ended up buying him a bigger net that's much better. The weird tong bug catching tool is super flimsy and fell apart after just 3 days... I keep having to snap it back together which is somewhat annoying. The carrying case to hold the bugs in is great, but the door to it doesn't latch well and opens easily letting bugs escape. The hat it comes with fits my son but the elastic string on it is huge, doesn't adjust and gets in his way while he's running around and it bugs him and he takes it off. All in all, it's a cute set and my son still enjoys using it. I paid almost $40 for it including shipping and I feel like it could be a little better made for that price. But it is for kids, so there's that.

My 2 yr old LOVES this! But it could be given to older kids, too. I could see 8-10 yr olds playing with this. It was a Christmas gift. There are so many pieces that can be played with for years to come. We collect stink bugs in the specimen jars. The hat is a little big now, but he will grow into it. I was really excited to find this kit and can’t wait for spring, when we can go outside and really explore! The larger specimen jar is little thin. It cracked when my husband accidentally squeezed it too hard. I just slapped some packing tape on it. Good as new. I haven’t looked yet but it woukd be nice if they sell individual replacement parts.

Bueno

My son loves this butt catcher it was everything we expected it to be and then some magnifying glass is perfect for hunting bugs very easy to use The size of everything that came with it was the right size for The a boy his age.The quality was great

For starters, it’s cheap. So don’t expect anything more than that lol.The cage- the door already broke. The piece that helps the door move has one of the things snap so there’s only 1 holdin the door on (it still works) but the door falls off sometimes which isn’t good if we wanted to go inside.The Binoculars - these will give you headache lol they aren’t focused no matter what you do. They make you see 2. Just go invest in kid binoculars at Walmart in the camping/hunting section. I already have some and they’re better so I’m not upset about it.The net- it gets caught on surfaces like wood aka houses and trees so if you’re going up high to catch a bug off the house or tree you have to be extra careful so a bug doesn’t fall on your head because you got stuck.The compass - you need to be perfectly aligned to get it to work …. That’s something my 5 year old can’t do (sit still) lolThe bug choppers workers well although flimsy but my son and I both caught moths and had fun.All in all it’s a decent purchase and we had fun. But I’m going to invest in a different bug catcher set. But I’m not going to return this because it was just $20
