Accurate, works well, calibration tools all included. Need to supply your own DI/distilled water but otherwise great

I wanted to check the accuracy of the pH sensor our pool had. I also hate using those tester strips which require identifying if the colour is light yellow or pale amber... I mean, really? Plus those strips are calibrated for a specific temperature, so any result you get with them will likely be wrong if your water temp is outside the norm. Anyhow, I hunted around and this seemed to be the one a lot of people recommended. It came in a neat little kit that included everything you needed in a hard shell case - although I'd recommend also buying some extra storage solution as the included amount will not last long. Use is super easy, and it automatically adjusts for temperature. You can also modify the settings so the backlight changes colour if the reading is outside the ideal numbers. I wondered why the case had an empty spot, then I realised that was so you could stand the tester up with the cap filled with storage solution. A really nice touch. If you want to keep it in the case with the lid closed, you just need to remember to store it on the side so there is less chance of leakage from the cap. Keep in mind that if you store it in tap, pool, or distilled water that could damage and permanently impact the accuracy of the tester. They do say that if it is stored dry, then that will also impact the accuracy of the sensor, but this can be fixed by soaking it in storage solution for a few days. Personally, I'd just get the storage solution - it's not expensive, the cap only requires a small amount, and you don't have to replace it after every use so a bottle will last a while. As for accuracy - I don't have a lab quality reference device to test it against, but it definitely appears to be more than accurate enough at least for testing a pool at home. I can't say anything about longevity as I've only had it now for a few weeks, but the sensor is replaceable plus it appears to be well made - so I think it should last well if treated with the care something like this deserves. They do have a newer version of this that has bluetooth and a "new improved sensor". For me this is more than good enough I think, I don't really have any need to track the readings over time, and as much as I am a geek the additional cost didn't really seem to justify it. Overall, very happy with this tester.

Bough the pH tester for use in making probiotics fermented fruit juice. The included instructions were detailed & clear and calibrating the device before first use with the included calibration solutions was quick & easy. The device is easy to use and well made. Would highly recommend it anyone who is serious about testing food samples quickly & accurately.

Seems to me be accurate and is a great price point. Easy to calibrate as well

I purchased since this model was highly recommended from many homebrewers. I like that it is easy to use, comes with a case, all the needed pH test liquids, and easy to understand instructions. One main issue is the speed of the readings. When using the calibration liquids the readings are fairly quick. When doing water adjustments and giving my salts time to dissolve, this meter can take up to 2-3 minutes to get a steady reading. I have had it go from 7.8 start only to finally run down to 6.9. When it does get a steady reading, it still jumps up and down anywhere from 3-10 points so I still have to guess an average. The other issue I have is the bulb replacement and pH test liquid replacement costs. The two of them together are about the cost of a new kit. Why would I not just buy a new kit then?

This is the second PH60 that I have purchased recently, one direct from Apera and one via Amazon. To address some concerns some have had of receiving returned, or outdated product this does not at all seem to be the case. This one was dated within several months of the unit that I purchased direct (both later half of 2025) with no signs of being a return. The unit arrived with the typical amount of moisture droplets in the cap, was near perfectly calibrated after an overnight soak in KCL solution and performs equally to the other that I received approximately one month ago. My only complaint is that on the new unit, the storage cap does not fit quite as securely. I checked with my other cap and it fits better so this must be a manufacturing tolerance thing with the process used to make the caps. I do have minor concerns of the integrity of the seal connecting the sensor tip to the body. If the threaded part were to become at all loose, I see that as being a potential for moisture to seep in. I chose to wrap a thin layer of teflon thread tape starting just below the connection and continuing up the threaded area as an extra layer of confidence. So far, based on my experiences with both PH60's and excellent results with another product that I have ordered from Apera, as well as receiving outstanding support for when I had issues relating to international shipping, I am confident that Apera is an outstanding brand.

Summary I was debating between this brand and one of the more popular brands but ultimately went with this due to the "replaceable" tip. I'm glad I did! Pros - Storage case is substantial - made me feel like I bought a true 'scientific instrument' - Came with all the accessories I need! I guess I didn't read the description carefully, but came with calibration fluid as well as storage fluid. There was also a lanyard. - Easy to use! Right off the bat, the device was already calibrated at the factory using all 3 PH values for reference. There is even a certificate certifying the same. I did my own calibration, though, and it was easy to do! (The drawback to doing your own calibration is you'll need the PH 10 reference fluid to complete the trio of calibration. Out of the factory all 3 were done and you'll see an icon L, M, H indicating this. If you do the PH 4 and PH 7 calibrations, you'll get L & M but no H. I'm OK with this but if you need super precision, something to keep in mind.) - Seems accurate based on my drop tester readings (which aren't as accurate because I have to compare color codings). I don't have another reference point so this is my opinion. Cons - As someone else mentioned, the backlight doesn't stay on very long. Not really a true Con for me as I don't need it under the conditions I operate in, but it would be nice to have a setting to adjust how long it stays on. - The storage solution is nice! I ended up using the entire bottle pretty quickly. 2x the size might be nice. It apparently lengthens (or cleans) the probe so I always store it in the solution. The solution seems to rapidly dissipate for whatever reason. More can be bought on its own, however. All in all I am very pleased with this tester. It fits my requirements for hydroponics and nutrient measurements. It was a great price and came with all you need to get started.

I've calibrated this thing two times already. I've followed the directions and even watched the apera ph60 video on YouTube on exactly how to calibrate this. It will not stay steady for any second. The readings is all over the place. I've used the cleaner it comes with each time I've recalibrate it and it does not change. It's very frustrating to not know exactly what my ph is. This damn thing was $80. I'm not happy with it. Probably gonna return. Even when calibration it reads all over the place and never an exact reading. I paid the extra money for this because I want not only an accurate reading but a fast one. This is not it
