I've been using this ph meter almost daily for about a year. It has surpassed my expectations for accuracy in longevity. Even after months of use, when I recalibrate , it has barely drifted. I've owned many of the cheaper pens and 2 bluelabs that did not perform as well as this Apera unit. I'm very impressed.
The value for money is well worth it. I bought a second unit as backup - that's how much I love it.

I Absolutely love the Apera PH60 . It arrived on time ,got it in 2 days. Before buying this meter I was using cheap under $50 meter that were constantly going out of wack and I was having to calibrate it almost every time I used it and I use them daily. Finally my HM meter broke and I was left with only ph drops to test my Nutrients and we all know how good that works, specially when growing cannabis (Hydro) . For days I researched and contemplated if I should spend the extra$$ and buy a expensive professional meter .or go with what I had already another cheap through away, and spend the money on lots of calibration solution lol. 3 days later I made the decision to spend the money on a good device,that will last me a few years if taken care of property. I choose the PH 60 because it had great reviews ,the company has been around since 1991 and they specialize in making ph and EC meters . one of the main reasons was that the probe can be switched out for a new one if and when it fails and they also sell attachments for other applications. Like the PH 60S it's a spear ph tester that is easily switched with the other probe. I will be buying that the spear probe in the future and I would definitely recommend this PH meter to anyone Growing cannabis or anything really. I give it a 5 star but I would have given 6 or more . Great Buy
