Product: Seachem: ReefStatus Calcium Test Kit
Manufacturer: Seachem
Review Type: Long-term
Overall Rating: 9

Pros:
Easy to use with straight-forward directions

Cons:
Would like to have a smaller syringe tip for smaller titration drops for greater accuracy

In Depth:
I've used this test kit for over two years now, and it's always performed flawlessly. The best thing about this kit is that it includes a bottle of calcium reference solution. By using the reference solution instead of aquarium water you can check the accuracy of your test kit. I just checked the accuracy of my kit, and recorded a calcium level of 430 mg/L using the 438 mg/L reference solution- not too bad!

Specs:
titration test kit encased in a sturdy plastic case (not a cardboard box- bonus!)

Similar Products Used:
Salifert and Red Sea titration kits

Every product testing in the chemistry forum of RC has found this test kit to be reading consistently lower the actual in calcium. Even using Seachems own reference.
In my opinion ..
This new ARC "Product Review" section is misleading to new ARC hobbyists.
It should be titled "Customer Reviews"
Save the Product Review title for the results of official ARC group testings.

I agree with what you said about this test kit. But on your point, maybe there should be a distinction between club sanctioned reviews & personal reviews. Great point!
