### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best non-professional PH meter
*by C***R on 22 January 2021*

There's a lot of nonsense surrounding these devices on forums. These are not the best or most accurate PH (or EC) meters. However, unless you're using a meter every day and need accuracy to the decimal point (which you don't - trust me) - these will be fine. The problem with more expensive meters (such as those from Bluelab) is that they need calibrating, cleaning and storing regularly to be accurate and won't take much of a beating (I've gone through 3 Bluelab PH pens in the time that an Essentials pen lasted me). These will need calibrating etc too but you can be less precious with them and they will still get the job done just fine.
