He called today to confirm that we did indeed have bacteria in our water, so the test from Safe Home for bacteria did work. The test from Safe Home told us we had bacteria in the water, and the county health department took it one step farther and identified the specific type of bacteria, which was total coliform. Original Review: The test confirmed the presence of bacteria in our well water. I will check it against a professionally completed one by our county next month because of the positive result of bacteria in our water. It is easy to use, but it's important to follow directions to get it right. They tell you not to overfill the bottle with your water sample. My recommendation is to use a very slow flow of water from the faucet and keep checking the water level. If it seems to still be yellow after 24-48 hours, shake it to be sure it's still yellow. At first showed a yellow color that seemed to mean it lacked bacteria, but after 2 days I shook it and it turned green. They do suggest shaking it. The test can be completed quickly. I made sure I cleaned the faucet carefully with Chlorox, ran the water for the recommended amount of time, and had clean hands to be sure I didn't add any bacteria to the test. The test is fairly inexpensive and seems to be a good value for the money. I'm sure the professional test will cost me more, but it will be interesting to see how this test compares with the professional test. The main difference I can think of with regard to this test and the professional test I will get is that this test doesn't break down what bacteria is actually in the water. I just shows a blue or green color that suggests there is the presence of bacteria. Review: Easy to use and read! HIGHLY recommend! - My wife recently had a Kidney Transplant. With all the immunosuppressant meds she is on, we have to be careful of bacteria. Our Summer cottage has well water, which her transplant team say she should absolutely avoid. This water test kit was so EASY to use! It gave us piece of mind about the lack of bacteria in our well water. Although my wife can't drink or brush her teeth with the water, we aren't worried to wash dishes or bathe in it. OUTSTANDING kit! ## Features - THE ORGINAL DIY BACTERIA TEST KIT that is certified accurate by Good Housekeeping Labs, American Red Cross, Underwriter Labs, and Merck Labs.
