Type of review

It is difficult to make precise contact to get jumping readings everywhere. In too many cases it is not possible to accurately confirm the KT of gold. Also, the probe is not durable and expensive to replace. I would like to add that the connections on the machine, for example plugging them into a socket, are very poorly made. You have to wiggle until you have constant contact. I bought it 2 years ago when I didn't know at all. WOULD NEVER SUGGEST IT, now I'm more aware.

Pros
  • Arts, crafts and sewing
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Not working

I would like to return this item to Revain because it is not working. I've tried this several times over the last few months to no avail - I know the item is worth 14k but it registers as 10k.

If I had bought from Best Buy or another brick-and-mortar store, I could easily return the defective item, but Revain won't let me…

Pros
  • Diamond and Gold Testers
Cons
  • Out of Fashion

No consistent readings

I can never have a definitive idea of the jewelry I am testing. I even took it to a jewelry store my family and I have been frequenting for over 40 years and asked them to check if I was wrong and see if they…
