Review Updated - seller corrected original problem - can review product now.
Edited review: Seller corrected the original problem of mismatched blowing tubes by sending me 10 of the correct ones with zero hassle.The instructions weren't very clear but you get the overall idea on how it should work. When they mention you need to not eat or drink for a period before using it that is important to stress. Even drinking water can throw off the results since it's measuring ketones present in your mouth via your breath. So I've adjusted to mostly testing in the morning to see if I'm in ketosis before starting my day. It usually takes two 20 second warm up cycles before it's ready, and the test does proceed quickly. I find I need to give it a forceful exhalation - it seems to do some kind of pre-check during the test to see if any ketones are detected before running the full test? Not really sure since the instructions are not well written.I do find much better results than with the urine test strips and it is a nice doublecheck on my keto diet efforts.

Gives reading only 10% of time
I carefully followed instructions and frequently tried to use the meter. It registered "0.0" about 90% of the time. I tried to really "clear" the meter and to blow into it in different ways to no avail. Very disappointed. Maybe mine was defective.

Not sure
I have 2 different ketone readers, both read different. Not sure which to trust.Ease of use is pretty much the only perk. Pretty quick start up.

Pretty Good Meter
Overall I think it is pretty good so far, I have a Keto Mojo Blood Tester and I tested at 2.5, I then Tested two times with this unit and got a 3.1 and a 2.9 so even though a little high compared to the blood meter it lets me know I'm in ketosis, I will continue testing with both to see any variations and update in a little while.

Difficult to use.
I couldn’t get this to work. An RN for years. Pretty sure I followed directions correctly and no reading came up after several times. In fairness though I did not return or attempt to get assistance.

Product malfunctioned
This product was very accurate and helpful when it was working. It began malfunctioning about 10 days after I began using it.

Blow forcefully
I like this a lot. At first, I kept getting a 0.0 and I noticed a lot of others have as well. I found that if I blow out my lungs almost as forcefully as possible then it will give a reading. It has a long beep if I do that, then I know it's working. At 1.0 mmol/L!

Much better than urine strips!
So I go on regular fasts and also do a Keto diet. To test when I am in ketosis, I use the urine strips. The problem is that they do expire and your whole bottle is wasted. I had been wanting a ketone meter but the price was a bit high but the reality is that although urine strips are cheaper, they only last so long and over time actually cost more than the meter.I decided to try this one and it works great. It’s not a heavy feel so it feels too light and perhaps low quality, but as I used it, I realized it was as heavy as it needed to be and yet still be of decent quality and get the job done! I like how it is simple to use and you get the reading of where you are (or aren’t) in ketosis.Happy with this meter and do recommend!
