Review: Quality - Very well packaged in a durable case, so easy to use. The quality appears to be made to last. Readings are accurate, the function from the the menu is easily read. For the money, I would have like to see more test strips in the bottles but highly recommend especially for first time Spa or pool owners.
Review: Inaccurate readings... - I have calibrated this tester several times. Sometimes the readings are pretty close to the taylor drop tests, and that's good enough. But many times I have to do 3,4 or even 5 tests to get readings that come close to each other. Then have to re-check with drop tests to make sure they are right. If I have to do drop tests to verify readings, why do I need this? I have used most of the test strips already having to test, re test and test again. I really want this to work, but feel like there may be something wrong with this particular unit. I am returning for a replacement and will update when I get a new one.

A: No

A: Yes, I have found this to be accurate or close reading to those from the pool store.

**Q: Does this kit measure salt content in a salt water pool accurately?**
A: The standard kit I purchased DID NOT contain test strips to measure salt content. You need to buy it separate I presume.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent unit with outstanding customer service but no Bluetooth
*by A***I on August 15, 2024*

My undergraduate is Chemical Engineering so I was excited to find and use a certified unit versus trying to use my old eyes to match color strips. The first set of tests went well with the usual initial "user-errors" but was very happy with the ease of use. Better to read the manual all the way through first because some tests are sequential. The unit's quantitative results confirmed the test strips' qualitative guidance. The problem came when, trying to follow the user manual, I attempted to connect the unit via Bluetooth to the phone tracking app. No connection. Removed/replaced the batteries, started the app first, started the unit first, nothing worked. Called customer service and dealt with a very courteous and knowledgeable person who politely asked "Does your unit have a Bluetooth symbol on the front?" Shazam! No it doesn't which explained why the unit couldn't connect with the app. The issue is Amazon doesn't sell their Bluetooth model 486201-BT-K. More kudos to the company's customer service because they will upgrade your unit to the Bluetooth model for about $120 if it's still under warranty. Bottom lines: - the unit provides accurate results but you'll need to create an Excel spreadsheet to track them - or upgrade to the Bluetooth model for automated tracking.
