Bought this to ensure that we were properly watering a newly planted tree. The probe is long and sturdy enough to measure moisture deeply. Love that the meter is positioned on the top rather than the side. Makes it really easy to read.

After a few years of spending money on cheaper versions of this that turned out to be completely worthless, I finally stepped up a bit and bought this. Best thing I've ever done! I've learned that my soil was too acidic and also that I was watering WAY too much. I use this primarily for tomatoes and this year I have already have one fully ripe (and delicious!) and have dozens of others on the way. Last year I had a handful, the whole season. Sad. This year I'll be giving them away. I put it in the ground as far as it will go, set a timer on my phone for about ten minutes and walk away. When I get back, the ph reading is on the screen, press the button and it tells you about moisture. Easy!

Have only used a couple times, but seems to be well built and works great.

This is the second time I'm buying this meter. The first lasted about 2 years. I use it to measure the pH and moisture level of my 13 fruit trees. The soil is mainly clay. I ended up breaking the tip of my first meter when I wasn't careful enough extracting it from the soil. I believe this is a good meter and if you're careful, it'll last a while.

No compren eso, soy ingeniero Agrónomo y esto es un dispositivo de muy mala calidad sin nadade certeza en los datos que dan. Si quieres uno asi pueden pedirlo de china a menos de la mitad de precio, es lo mismo. Muy mal.

I also bought another manufacturer ph meter and the results don’t match.

This is a good quality built instrument with a probe long enough to get down in the soil for a good reading. It seems pretty accurate. The only thing you've got to remember about this tool is that it takes a few minutes to get a reading since it's not a electronic device with batteries, but I feel you get a better handle on a ph reading

I am impressed. Various places in my yard range in PH from 6 to a neutral 7. And if I check the next day get same measurements so it appears to be highly repeatable.Quality is decent especially for the low price.I suspect the electrode collar and electrode point have their dissimilar metals electroplated or anodized on them which explains the instructions to wipe them off gently after use, to not leave them in the ground over an hour, or store touching other metals. You don't want to scratch off the coating or deplete it due to drawing current through the electrodes for long periods (galvanic action)I am suspicious of many of the negative reviews - I wonder if they represent competing products or test stripsI would buy again. A few uses pay for the meter considering the cost of keeping good plants beautifulfwiw, on of my nine Rose's was too acidic, ph of 9. That was always my poorest plant and since it is in the same bed as my others i always assumed the PH was good. Before having this meter it never occurred to me to test each plant.Also. I have not needed ten minutes for the meter to 'stabilize'. In our moist florida soil the final reading is reached within a couple minutes
