Simple distillation is a basic distilling method in organic chemistry used to separate liquids that have at least fifty degrees difference in their boiling points. The solvent mixture in the distillation flask is heated and the liquid with lower boiling point is vaporized and then condensed by a water-cooled condenser dripped into a receiving flask. This simple distillation apparatus supplied by laboy includes almost everything in need except the heating mantle,all the glassware parts are with 24//40 standard taper joints for safe and convenient seal.Including: 1.1000mL round bottom flask used as a distillation flask,1pcs 2.500mL round bottom flask used as a receiving flask,1pcs3.250mL erlenmeyer flask used as a receiving flask.(it is neccessary to have at least two receiving flasks for collecting the initial distillate and the desired fraction) 1pcs 4.Three way distilling adapter with a thermometer cap, used to connect the boiling flask and the condenser,also used as a distillation head accommodating a thermometer to monitor the vapor’s temperature. 1pcs 5.Liebig condenser 200mm in jacket length with two glass hose connections with 10mm O.D.in the largest serration. 1pcs 6.Vacuum take off adapter used to attach the 500mL round bottom flask or the 250mL erlenmeyer flask to serve as the receiving vessel.1pcs 7.Kerosene thermometer temp range from 0-200 °C.1pcs 8 .16Ft Rubber Tubing 8 mm I.D.11 mm O.D. for 10 mm Hose Connection.1pcs 9.Bosshead clamp to fix the flask clamp with the support rod. 2pcs 10.Flask clamp to clamp the flasks to the ring stand or support rod. 2cps 11.Cork stand for 1000mL flask 1pcs 12.Cork stand for 500mL flask 1pcs 13.24# plastic joint clip to fix the 24/40 standard tap joints 4pcs

Dangerous without some way to vent the apparatus!
Excellent Quality fast shipping will buy other glassware. My only concern is for less experienced. It is extremely unsafe to heat a sealed system like the way this kit is put together. Why not attach a vacuum adapter. That would aid in oil extractions and possibly save someone from a flask popping off breaking a piece of an expensive kit, or worse a jet of steam to the face. I know you can vent with separatory funnel but this is neither explained nor proper technique.

Great Value, Great Glass
I bought this for college chemistry, and the glassware is of great quality. It comes with what is pictured, although my kit was missing a piece, but I have to commend Laboy they did not hassle me over the missing piece and shipped it pretty fast from China, about 10 days. I am very pleased with their customer service, thanks Feng! I have already ordered other glassware and it has all held up great no chipping or cracking, even dropped the round bottom flask and it did not break. Distilled many solutions and have heated the flasks to 240 Celsius and no problems, the glass is definitely borosilicate. No need to spend 5x the amount on different brand glassware.

Good buy
Previously I hesitated and did a quite intense web based research to get an overview of what is available and whats the price for a glassware distillation kit - before I decided to buy this one. Up front, I did not have the time to run the apparatus, but for now the construction looks nice The glassware seems to be well produced and fits tight into each other. Everything arrived complete and very carefully packed within a short amount of time (2Weeks). Overall the price/performance of this product is very satisfactory and I would buy it again.

Arrived quickly and in perfect condition
Everything arrived in perfect condition and arrived rather quickly but had to buy a heating mantle for the round bottom distillation flask. Amazon sells heating mantles to accomodate different sized round bottom flasks so not a big deal. You do need to buy the heating mantle separately. I have organic chem lab background so setting up apparatus was rather easy. Added a few other items which were easy to find on Amazon. Making my own oils will be fun

Arrived intact
Was about a week late, but customer service was quick to reply and assure me it had not been lost in the mail, just delayed due to covid nonsense. Was packed nicely and all the pieces are in good shape. Not so sure about the seal on the thermometer, as it needs to be tightened down quite a bit to make sure it doesn't slide, and only a single plastic washer, but if it doesn't seal, it can be sealed easily enough with plastic wrap, but it's probably fine. Decent price. Thanks.

love it
Came from China without clamps. I contacted seller and they sent clamps. Very very happy with seller. Glass appears to be of high quality...I'm distilling up a storm

Highly recommended
Great product quality.Exceptional and careful wrapping shows the care this company gives to its products and customers.Arrived earlier than expected.I am tempted to get the full Advanced Chemistry Lab Glassware Kit (HMK0203 for reference).
