Too little for too much.

Sorry I don't recommend this, you can buy raw materials to make your own KLC cheaper than this product. It's well made and pH balanced, but that's to be expected, but for the money you're paying you're getting too little, while building your own will likely cost less and last you over 100x longer (literally Google potassium chloride prices). .

Pros
  • Quick order beak
Cons
  • No instructions

The bottom line is this stuff does what it's supposed to do, but it's overpriced for what you get. Some complain that the bottle was incomplete. If there are no signs of leakage, the bottle should not be full. You have received 100 ml. It doesn't matter what size the bottle is lol. However, 100 ml is not enough for the money spent. I'll try a cheaper brand next time and see if there's any downside in performance.

Pros
  • Add to probe cap to store and rehydrate probe as needed; Instructions included
Cons
  • Miscellaneous Miscellaneous

The bottle is only 75% full.

When I received this item, I immediately noticed that there was no liquid in it, by the way the bottle was squirting back and forth. I grabbed a flashlight and brought it to the bottle and it was 25% missing. The top was sealed with tape to prevent leakage. I removed the tape and unscrewed the lid, the foil seal was slightly broken. Thankfully, with the tape in place and the lid tight enough to hold the foil tightly on the bottle, it didn't leak into the shipping carton. This may have been a…

Cons
  • Not bad, but...
