Ordered insect pinning equipment with no issues. Their website was easy to navigate and the process was quick without any delays or window reloading. My order was shipped and received quicker than expected. I will order from them again.

Ordered a sample pack of insect pins for making pinhole cameras. Wonderful selection and super-fast shipment even in a pandemic. They work really well for the purpose. I use the pin size below the size of the hole I want and have gotten …

I have been using Indigo Instruments entomology pins in my artwork for almost ten years now, and at this point, they have been an integral part of multiple framed works as well as four different large-scale sculptural paper installations. Basically—huge thanks to Indigo Instruments for being a big part of my studio practice!

Ordered 100 magnifying glasses for a marketing project. First I started on Amazon, but they only allowed me to order 10 at a time. That was a waste of my time and a complete pain. Some of the orders were canceled because they couldn't …

Indigo Instruments has been a reliable source of affordable hand lenses for beginners in our earth sciences courses at McGill University. We tried other suppliers after coming across the occasional defective items (unavoidable in mass manufacturing). However, Indigo Instruments offers us the best quality: price ratio and attentive service among the many options we tried.

I'm a returning customer. I purchase the #2 black enameled pins. They are excellent for my applique work and piecing on my quilt blocks. They are so much better than the metal pins from the big box sewing store.

These are very thin and sharp and a nice length for working with light colored silk and velvet fabrics as they do not leave a mark. Very pleased with the prompt service and the other products I ordered as well. This was my first time ordering from Indigo Instruments. There are other products I would like and so I feel comfortable ordering more items from this company.
