Neve used laMotte but they have a great reputation and are supposed to be high end. I am using Hanna checkers and Red Sea. I used to use Salifert and was pleased but the syringes are so small and harder for me to read.

I used a lamotte saltwater master test kit years ago. It was very accurate. I don't see them locally anymore.
