Review: Good restock - Exact replacement for the required reagent. Works well.
Review: Refreshing My Home Pool Test Kit - I went through my kit of pool test chemicals for which ones were well beyond their expiration dates or low. I like the Taylor brand. The retail prices can vary significantly depending on the retail seller. The best price was here on desertcart. I was glad to see what I received was recent production that gives me multiple seasons of testing.
