Sam Highmore
costs less than other atp meters out there and does the same job
Marc Martinez
Arrived quickly and works great to measure cleanliness on surfaces. Has a bit of a learning curve, but definitely worth it
Sarah Novas
Had some issues setting it up to it the manual not being too clear. They sent a video and helped with the setup. All is good
Amanda DiAngelo
Works just as well as the Hygiena brand atp testers for a lot less. Be aware: the RLUs from device to device vary. You need to take the average of 5 readings to find your lower limit.
Kyle Andersen
Got it just in time for a big project. Thank you to all who helped answer all of my questions and concerns!!!
Devin Richardson Jr.
Our cleaning company uses this device to test before and after cleaning services to prove to our customers the effectiveness of our work. Has helped us tremendously during the pandemic.

Using this to analyze surface bacteria in common areas and restrooms for a chain of restaurants. It is a useful tool to understand how good of a job our frontline staff is doing and helps us keep our customers safe.
Eva Regio
Device works as expected and for much less than other options. My only issue was that shipping, although free, took 8 days when I expected it in 3-5 days. Other than this minor issue, the experience was great.
