Accuracy is questionable
The instruction manual could use some work. It really does not tell you how hard to blow into the device. I do not do a big inhale prior that being said, If I blow hard I can get a reading of 2.8, if I just basically exhale I get a reading of 1.0 and up. However blood test using precision show me at .7.I was hoping to find a website to the manufacturer but I could not.Accuracy is questionable.

Easy to use
I've started working out about six months ago and haven't been losing much weight. After talking to a few people I changed my diet. I lost weight after greatly reducing how many grams of sugar I put in my body every day. However, I started eating more sugars and my weight loss stopped. I was told my body wasn't in Ketosis long enough. I bought this to help me understand where I am at. I used it for the first time today and it was super easy to use and understand. I am only at the beginning state of Ketosis so now I will cut back more on my sugars and retest.

Excellent ketosis monitor
Very pleased with this equipment. After the initial purge (as instructed, and only once) the readings have been absolutely repeatable, zero without breath and appropriate breath readings depending on recent food intake. I have a mainstream sphygmomanometer which gets significantly differing readings from one measurement to the next. This instrument doesn't exhibit that symptom; two readings one after the other are identical. Waiting a few hours will then produce a different reading, and the readings change as one would expect, consistent with eating choices.Great product so far!

I wish I'd had this years ago
Checking ketone levels while I diet. That is also confirmed by weight loss. I had been using Urine test strips. I read they are not testing the same thing. Those are discarded ketones where a high reading means they are being wasted. It's as rewarding as standing on the scale. Good feedback.

DO NOT PURCHASE
I put this product through every scenario you could imagine to make it work. I read many many reviews the good and the bad and decided to take a chance. Here are the results....I first cleared the unit 3 times as per instructions after a 0.0 reading and did the breath test. First reading 9.5 in the Red. It took 10 recycle/count downs to get it back to zero. Waited 10 minutes and did the test again and blew a 9.3 in the Red. Again another 10 to 12 recycle/countdowns to get it back to zero. I must have done this at least 20 times in 6 hours and never got a reading lest than 9.3 which would tell you that you are in Starvation Ketosis which I'm not. I actually wore out the brand new batteries I put in. Well you probably guessed this unit is going back. Pretty sad, the unit is actually very well designed and easy to use if only it worked. You can take your chance as I did, up to you. Hope this Helps.

Not disappointed with this purchase - well maybe
Really like this product. Simple to use. Much more convenient to use then strips.So after some use i question results. It give reading of being in ketosis even when no one has breathed into it. We changed batteries and ran it through it’s 3 cycles.Currently not sure how i feel about this product....

Works great
My girlfriend and I use this just as an insanity check while we are on the keto diet and I'm very happy with how quick and easy it is to use. I can't speak to how accurate it is, but if you just want to monitor whether or not you are in ketosis, this is a great tool.

Inaccurate. Very disappointed in product.
I thought this was a great tool until I realized that the meter had a reading when there was not even anyone blowing in it. I attempted to reset it as indicated in the instructions and it didn't matter. I got several inconsistent readings back to back. And when I saw others saying it registered a reading without being blown into I tried it. And it was then when I realized this tool I spent over $50 for is now useless to me. Lesson learned!
