The Hach PO-19 test kit has been evaluated, and seems to be accurate enough for our purposes. I have had good results with the Salifert, but I'm not picky about how accurately I can judge the shade of blue that results.

I have both kits the phosphate is somewhat usable although it goes in 0.004 incraments. the No3 kit already broke on me and I hardly used it. the top on the bottle wont screw back on.

D &D P04 test kit is pretty good and accurate. I have not used the others.

I only use DD Merk, after having both DD and Hach and both results were the same after a year, so I gave away the Hach....
