The case it came in was also very nice and easy to use the solutions
I have gone through several PH meters made by Hannah. My biggest issue with the Hannah ones are that the replacement probes are so expensive. I decided rather than replace a temperature and a ph probe at nearly $100 each I was going to simply try a new brand. It has a three point calibration and it is much faster at reading than the two Hannah's I have had. The case it came in was also very nice and easy to use the solutions while in the case to help hold up the solution bottles.

Love the precise readings-once we got through the instructions
This PH400 Portable pH Meter is a nice, professional instrument, on par with other high-quality test equipment I've used in the past. Open the hard shell case (which provides peace-of-mind when transporting it / storing it) and you'll find the meter itself, the probe, and three pre-mixed buffers. Wanting to make sure the device's calibration was accurate, we took our time reading and discussing the instructions (which are not intuitive and in way too small a font, in my opinion). Once we determined the ins and outs of its operation, everything worked as it was supposed to. I think one thing to remember here is this is a sensitive instrument and it shouldn't be handled roughly. Overall, once you understand its operation it's easy to use, and it's nice to have precise readings. Suggestion for Apera: Make a video for how to set one of these up and provide a link in the instructions. Some of us learn better by watching someone else do it. Because the instructions are something to wade through (and could be done better), I'm giving this 4.5 stars, but rounding up, because after the initial learning curve, it seems like an accurate, reliable device.

Great pH measurements
We are using this during distillation to determine when to stop distilling at a certain pH of our hydrosols, replacing our test strips. The kit comes with solutions to help calibrate the measuring wand and a hard shell caring case. The combination of the instruction booklet, as well as instructions and videos on their web site and YouTube helped us figure it all out. We are also using the Apera Instruments EC20 Value Conductivity Pocket Tester for hydroponics. When soil is high in minerals, it’s conductivity is high. This is an easy to use monitor for testing and adjusting the minerals in our test water samples for hydroponics. We are just getting use to how to adjust the mineral levels and content. We are still newbies but learning more.

The hard shell case really does make this portable. The case holds the meter and the solutions securely. The meter has been very accurate against my shop meter. While the glass bulb does look fragile so far it has stood up to the few tests I have made.

The unit is well built, incredibly easy to use, and has a fast response time. The carrying case that it came with is handy (as well as the sample size buffer solutions). The instructions are actually really helpful as well regarding other probe usage, accuracy, cleaning, storage, maintenance, calibration, etc. My only suggestion is that the plastic guarding around the glass bulb seems a little thin, nothing has broken on my unit, but seems like it may be a possibility.

It is easy to use and accurate.
We purchased this for food service application. It is easy to use and accurate. We use it daily and calibrate it once a week to satisfy FDA requirements. We have also been in contact with the manufacturer and they are very helpful. We had purchased a cheaper meter and it did not last. This is a great meter for a good price
