Chemicals spilled all over the box

The box was opened and the chemicals spilled all over the packaging. The chemicals in the packaging literally say they are dangerous when spilled and leaked onto my other item in the mailer.

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • Not safe

Very easy to use, very accurate test kit!

Fantastic and very easy to use test suite. Just add drops until the colors change and compare the number of drops with the chart! Accuracy appears to be top notch. Also a great price for the long lifespan!

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Nothing here

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Most likely accurate, although the instructions are separate from the product.

Instructions must be printed on the bottle in clear text. Much of the information in the owner's manual is useless. If any information has had a chance of being useful, it is vague at best! 3 stars because it seems accurate and inexpensive. The tubes are also very fragile.

Pros
  • Absolute legend
Cons
  • There are errors

Result card not included.

Got the kit in the mail today. From Revain named Sparkfish. I wanted to do some tests this afternoon but also no results comparing GH and KH. I ended up returning the kit because I'm not sure what the results will be. hp Be careful which company you buy from. So you know who to contact if you have problems. This is not from the API company itself.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Not the best

Reliable water hardness test kit

I raise invertebrates, cherry shrimp and crayfish. The spawning of these creatures is determined by water hardness along with mineral content. This kit accurately measures both GH and KH to allow me to maintain optimal water parameters for invertebrate mating. In addition, maintaining the right parameters leads to better survival of shrimp and crabs.

Pros
  • Free for educational use
Cons
  • No automatic

I like aquarium test kits

Forget the users who can't count drops. It doesn't matter and you don't have to do one drop at a time; After the first test you will know what range you are looking for. for example. Let's say your Ghd tested 10 earlier. You can add seven or eight drops first, and then add one by one to find the current measurement. I cannot confirm the accuracy as I did not send my water to a lab for testing. But it's a lot grainier than test strips.

Pros
  • Robust construction
Cons
  • Suitable for

Did what I needed

I bought this as an inexpensive way to test my home brewed water so all I needed was a set of drops for GH and KH testing. The included instructions included a chart that converted the number of drops (no color chart required) to a meaningful scale for aquarium use; since I've used it "off-label" I can't comment on how useful it is. It should be noted that the vials provided are easy to break, I accidentally broke one by squeezing too hard when trying to remove the cap (fortunately it didn'tโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small home
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors
