Pros & Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

This is a worthwhile purchase. We are new to pool ownership and this was perfect kit to make it easy to manage our pool.



Cons

The total alkalinity results from this kit are way off! Alkalinity is about 80 points off, free chlorine is all over the board. The chlorine and calcium hardness are so irratic that they are unusable.

The test kit is not accurate. I guess this is to prevent everyone purchasing from getting their money back on this piece of junk. But the rest of the readings are consistently wrong. Stabilizer is wrong in the other direction.

0. It’s pathetic i had to finally use a color strip to get an accurate reading. It also shows me inaccurate results that i have compared with the digital reading done by one neighborhood pool supply store.

This error indicates the test chamber is scratched or discolored. What really irks me is the fact that i can’t return it because of the minuscule chemicals the kit contains.

    Only 3 of the 7 bottles would expire after a year

    This causes the readings to be wrong

    Getting so tired of subpar products and service from amazon

    You must be absolutely certain to use current reagents to get accurate results from this test kit otherwise you readings will be all over the place and way off


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Ever wonder why the tests are free they stay in business by selling you stuff very expensive stuff and a lot of it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I never once have taken a water sample to any pool store and i have used many where they did not recommend pounds and pounds of chemicals be added to our pool
