5.0 out of 5 stars Varify Water Hardness Test Kit: Precision Meets Minimalism
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2024
The Varify Water Hardness Test Kit's arrival, expedited by Amazon Prime's prompt shipping, was a mixed initial experience. While the anticipation for conducting water quality tests was high, the condition of the packaging upon delivery—discombobulated and somewhat crushed—prompted immediate concern. Despite this, it's worth noting that the integrity of the test kit's components remained intact, a testament to the durability of the items within despite the external packaging mishap.

The commitment to minimal packaging is commendable, aligning with environmental consciousness and reducing waste. However, the compactness of the box, while efficient, led to cramped conditions for the contents, resulting in curved and smashed instructions and a tightly packed setup. This aspect, though minor, slightly detracted from the unboxing experience, suggesting room for improvement in balancing eco-friendliness with product presentation and protection.

Despite the initial apprehensions raised by the packaging, the Varify Water Hardness Test Kit itself stood out for its quality and ease of use. Following the straightforward instructions, the testing process was seamless, yielding excellent and reliable results promptly. This efficiency and effectiveness highlight the product's value, providing users with a simple yet accurate means to assess water hardness.

Our overall impression of the Varify Water Hardness Test Kit is largely positive, underscored by the product's performance and the quality of the results it delivers. While we advocate for enhanced protective measures in packaging to ensure the product's presentation matches its superior functionality, we commend the manufacturer for creating a high-quality water testing solution. The Varify Test Kit is an essential tool for those seeking to gain insights into their water quality, offering precision and simplicity in a compact, environmentally friendly package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fresh Product!???? 5 Stars for using these in a hydroponic system, not a spa.
Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2023
The information that is important for everyone’s purposes is the expiration date for this product. There were other brands that I considered purchasing but I chose not to because the recent reviews had shown that people were being shipped an expired product. Not this one!???? As you can see by the photo of the box, it has an expiration date of May 25th, 2025. That gives me a year and a half to use these strips which is perfect for my needs. It is also something to consider when choosing the quantity of strips that you will purchase. Will you be able to use all the strips in the time before they expire? A last thing to add about this is that the expiration date is on the box. It is not also on the container which is typical nowadays. So, before you throw away the box, it might be a good idea to write the expiration days on the container itself.
Now I will write about my hydronic system needs so this part of my review may or may not be applicable to your needs. I have been having challenges keeping my hydroponic system in balance so that roots will grow on my cuttings. I finally found a person online that said to use spa test strips to gauge the correct amount of Free Chlorine. So, based on good reviews for some tests, not all tests, I chose these Varify ones. Some reviewers that gave this brand 1 or 2 stars said that the readings on cyanuric acid and calcium hardness are not accurate. So, if that is what you are looking for in a water test, then it might be good to look at the most recent reviews because there is a possibility that this was an issue with just one batch. They may have remedied the test to be more accurate now.
However, for my purposes, this test kit is working well in ways that I didn’t even realize were something that Needed to be fixed. I had no idea that water hardness was an issue in my water! Also, my acidity is off the charts low! So, I will be using additives to adjust those things.
For now, the difference between the before and after is simply adding bleach. The Free Chlorine reading should be between 2ppm and 4ppm in a hydroponic system. I was shocked to look at the reading (see Before photo attached) of the test before I added more bleach (in a hydroponic system you can add chlorine or bleach as a sanitizer to increase the amount of Free Chlorine). I had absolutely no sanitizer in my system as you can see by the clear swatch next to Free Chlorine. No wonder I was having a challenge getting my cuttings to grow roots!
I did the test actually 3 times and adjusted after each time. You can see my final test in the After Photo I attached). You can see that the Free Chlorine reading is now a touch high for a hydroponic system but close enough to work.
The test was easy to do, easy to read, and I have hope now of being successful with my hydroponic system. What a relief!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Solid Four Stars for Accuracy and Ease
Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2023
The Varify Water Hardness Test Kit has proven to be a reliable tool for assessing water hardness, securing a solid four-star rating from my experience.

The accuracy of the test results is commendable, providing a clear and precise indication of water hardness levels. The kit is user-friendly, with straightforward instructions that make the testing process easy to follow.

The inclusion of multiple testing strips ensures the ability to perform multiple tests, allowing for consistent monitoring over time. This feature is particularly useful for those seeking long-term insights into their water quality.

The results are delivered promptly, and the color-coded scale on the strips makes it simple to interpret the hardness levels. The packaging is convenient and ensures the strips remain protected until use.

While the Varify Water Hardness Test Kit performs admirably, I reserve the fifth star for a potential improvement in the overall aesthetics or presentation of the kit. Enhancements in this aspect could contribute to an even more positive user experience.

In conclusion, for those seeking an accurate and user-friendly water hardness test kit, the Varify kit is a reliable choice, earning a commendable four-star rating.

Good value for your money. And easy to use and read the results instantly. I wanted to check hardness before and after a water softener was installed but they arrived too late.

5.0 out of 5 stars Useful Test Kit
Reviewed in the United States on October 19, 2024
This is a useful and inexpensive home test kit to have on hand to check incoming water hardness and finished softened water hardness in order to adjust your water softener settings. Do the colors on the test strips match up "perfectly" with the colors on the color chart? No, not perfectly, but certainly close enough to give you the range of hardness in your incoming and finished water supplies.
