The variable explorer in makes Spyder great for debugging but it doesn't stack up to full featured IDE's such as PyCharm community edition. In my opinion, Spyder is a much worse debugger since the console was removed so after 2 months of frustration with the newer version I "downgraded" back to version 3.1.4 which I love.

This will get you back to the version of Spyder where the beloved console still exists:

conda uninstall spyder

conda install spyder=3.1.4
