Who We Are

We are a third-generation, family owned and operated business that cares about quality products and great customer service!

We've been a leader in microscope sales and service in the educational, industrial, clinical and research markets for over 65 years. We pride ourselves on offering quality products at discounted prices every day, so there's no reason to wait for a sale! 

Representing a variety of top global manufacturers, we offer new and refurbished microscopes at great savings. We have the knowledge and resources to repair and maintain every microscope we sell, new or used. Mr. Benz can fix or replace broken parts, alter your current configuration for new or different needs, and clean and re-lubricate your microscope for years of use. 

To better serve you, we carry microscope accessories, slides, cover slips, stains, lab and educational supplies, glassware, and gift items. As an authorized Celestron dealer we also have telescopes, spotting scopes and binoculars in stock. Call, email, or visit to see what's available today!
