The specs are underwhelming, but I could see the value to a beginner being in the software that accompanies it tightly integrated with parts kits and instructions. I'd honestly prefer to see a logic analyzer instead of a mediocre oscilloscope; I feel like the projects that most people learning want to do these days are digital, and simple logic analyzers are more amenable to being cheap while still being useful.

I feel like building an nLab would be a far more valuable learning experience then using one.

The caveat being not just as a DIY soldering kit but as a full "course" in the design and construction of it.

Its got a power supply, an MCU, analog I/O, digital I/O. Learning the theory of how to read a 100kHz analog signal is far more valuable then a device that can read a 100 kHz signal.
