AquaChek561141-02 Salt Water Test Strips for Swimming Pools, 10-Count, 2-Pack

Simple and cheap way to maintain salt level. Shelf life is only for one season.

Easy to use and read. Works as described.

These test strips are much much cheaper than the pool store, and the expiration dates are always far enough out in the future.

I have a liquid test kit for salinity, but keep these around for convenience and ease of use. I have found that the results from these are very close to my liquid test as well as my salt water generator digital readout.

Easy instructions, easy to use, strips are legible and very helpful!

Surprisingly good compared to another brand I tried.

So far they seem to be accurate, they agree with the low salt indicator on my salt cell. Also, when adding salt to pool the salt reading agrees with amount of salt added.I read reviews that stated the chart on the bottle was different from the chart on the instructions, but there is not a chart for salinity in the instructions, only a chart to determine amount of salt to add.

These quantab test strips lack the accuracy I need for my pool. I've been having a lot of variance in my salt water chlorinator cell (from 0-3600), so I wanted to get a more accurate reading before adding salt, this was not the answer. Presumably I used to much water in my first couple samples, and(or) the temperature was so low that it affected the reading, in either case the Taylor Silver Nitrate test shows 4200 ppm (after 4 tests within 1-2 drop of each other, the Aquacheck showed between 1000 and 2500. If you have a salt water chlorinator, it will be infinitely more accurate than these, so just buy the Taylor salt water kit if you want to ck the chlorinator.

These work and are a priced best on Amazon

As expected, tests for salt content in pool and hot tub (by titration, not the horrible "use you color judgement" strip method). Ideally, it would nice if the shipping company had not thrown the package off the plane at 10,000ft and run over it with a 2-ton truck. Package arrived 65% flatter than expected, but stops still work.

Does what is designed to do. Happy to keep on using these test strips.
