Positive aspects of the product (pros):	Very accurate
Cons:	cost

I’ve been using this in-line tester on my RO/DI unit for a few weeks now. I have found to be very very accurate and easy to use as I have mounted it directly to the RO/DI unit its self. I have had the readings double checked at a SW LFS with there almost lab quality tester a few times now and the reading have been confirmed as accurate each and every time.

If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
