I've used pool test strips from the local pool store before, and they're never as accurate as a proper test kit, but are more convenient for quick spot-checks of pool chemistry. So, I feel like my expectations were reasonable.

These strips shipped quickly, for a good price, but are TERRIBLE. The color is very inconsistent between strips, the dye runs off the strip before the color stabilizes, and it takes 2-3 strips to get a fair idea of where the pool chemistry lies. Even the pool-store strips were 10x better than these.

I have tried about 6 different brands and I have always said that these are the best. I have NO idea why any of the other reviews say that these strips are hard to read. They have a very distinct color range and I feel i can EASILY see exactly what my ppm are for every element tested. These are actually not very easy to find, so, my last purchase, I bought three of them in case I can't find them anywhere else or they stop making these. I actually gave one away to a friend and he has since told me that he loves them and will never buy another kind. Don't waste time trying any others. These are the best you'll find.

The company that built my pool provided me with these test strips. They work great and I would recommend them without hesitation.
