Good product by M. Henry (Tuttle, OK USA) 5 Stars

Don't know how accurate it is but I like being able to test the water I'm drinking be it a resturant, public water fountain or cold mountain stream.

Does what it says by Serafin Silva (Southern California) 4 Stars

Nothing fancy. But it does what they say it does and it's a reasonable price

Seems accurate, good info by Nat Arem (Grand Cayman) 5 Stars

I've used this on a few sources since buying it a few weeks ago. Suburban Philly tapwater: 230 ppm Same water but filtered by the fridge: 200 ppm Dasani: 30 ppm Grand Cayman tapwater: 175 ppm Le Bleu delivered water: 0 ppm Needless to say I was shocked by the Le Bleu but it really re-enforced the value of paying for purified water. I know the Dasani might actually have some good things in it (magnesium, potassium, etc) but I would definitely recommend getting a tester like this and finding a way to get water (delivered, RO filter, etc) which is pure. It's a small price to pay to independently verify the purity of the water you're drinking.

Compact pen-style TDS meter with hold feature by Gordon M. Wagner (Suburbia) 4 Stars
February 13, 2009
Functions well, compact size. The hold feature is essential. Excellent price. No complaints. I am surprised to find out how clean (or unclean) various water sources are. I bought this to monitor our under-sink Reverse Osmosis filtration setup. Clean water is wonderful, this meter lets you know how pure your water is.

It seems to work by C. Schmidt (Traveling the USA in an RV) 5 Stars

It seems to work.. I have no way to gauge if it is truly accurate. :) However, when testing a water source before and after it entered our RO filter, it clearly showed that the RO filter was working. Have had this for about 4 months now and it has worked fine w no battery problems. It is good that it has a button to save your reading until you take it out of the water. Without that, sometimes it's hard to read the display while the meter is in the water container.
