I also have an Andonstar and I'm very happy with it. They seem to be the best "cheap" microscopes.

After seeing someone's setup here (sorry, forgot who!), I removed the Andonstar from its base and printed a custom bracket to let me attach it to a springy microphone stand attached to the back of my desk and immediately made it 20 times better. It's so convenient to be able to just reach out and grab a microscope at a moment's notice and stick it wherever I want it.
