I contacted them several times with questions about the SW, etc., and they were very responsive. This will be useful in testing paint for matching older faded paint, colors for fabrics for furniture, etc. For example, you take a old sample to a paint store, they match, put a spot on a stick to visually compare the end mix. Some people's eyes may have minor color blindness and hence, the in-store comparison might appear ok in their light. But way off in the light at home. In building new houses, you get to pick the color. However, the painter they use might have a special deal with an alternate store brand. Hence they make the best match which may be slightly off from the one you selected. If you're lucky they might tell you the brand they used. Most time that info is lost. Then I needed to repaint an area and I can't tell you how many trial quarts I had to buy, from various paint brands, and various grades within each brands to find the 'best match'. (Trust me they always use the cheapest, thinnest crap so try those first.). This unit sure would have made that process easier. I used the unit to test the paint the contractor used against the color we chose -- WAY OFF. The new mixed paint I was able to match -- close but off -- but at least it blended. And now I am seeing the differences between sunlight exposed areas vs dark areas like closets. I can use this to know when to use a different paint sample to buy matching paint -- and test at the store. And if we ever build a house again, I will make it a requirement to test the contractor's paint! The SW they provide can find best matches from some suppliers and/or simply get a trial and test right there. You can also get the sample swatches or color cards and use for comparisons. No eye-balling the results any more! And no more having to repaint a large section rather than a touchup because the paint faded and just doesn't match. The only criticism is they not all paint brands are represented in their their programs. However, most paint companies post their L*a*b* or RGB values for their brands and with a little work you can cross compare. (For the advanced, you might have to look up how to convert between LAB-RGB. There are on-line calculators that can help) It's easy to use, quick, and very repeatable. Also, I can detect small variations from sunlight exposed areas versus darker areas. I can use it for matching fabric colors for couches/chairs, etc. when having to change suppliers. This will be a good investment and I wish I had had this years ago! Review: Good unit, Terrible packaging - For some reason (maybe desertcart storage charges) AMTAST strips the factory air packaging off and ships the $500 unit to you bare in the shelf box. It's a pretty good unit for a non-grating spectrocolorimeter, it is much more stable than the less expensive one and the inter-unit agreement is excellent. I doubt you'd find a comperable unit for under $700 elsewhere. ## Features - Handheld Color Analyzer ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 3.6 out of 5 stars 23 Reviews | ## Images ![Lab Colorimeter (Model AMT599) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615ege7PmrL.jpg) ![Lab Colorimeter (Model AMT599) - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81nV+Ju9u4L.jpg) ![Lab Colorimeter (Model AMT599) - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/811ThuybPgL.jpg) ![Lab Colorimeter (Model AMT599) - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/815DFSrwkGL.jpg) ![Lab Colorimeter (Model AMT599) - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81GTQcyoSNL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very Useful, Great product *by D***4 on November 6, 2021* I like the fact that the company has the experience of creating products like these and hence, more reliable for use.

It's a pretty good unit for a non-grating spectrocolorimeter, it is much more stable than the less expensive one and the inter-unit agreement is excellent. I doubt you'd find a comperable unit for under $700 elsewhere. ### ⭐ No user/owner manual available *by M***0 on November 28, 2022* I think the product probably has some useful applications but there is absolutely no documentation available so it is trial and error at best. Doesn't work on glossy surfaces, doesn't work on natural surfaces like wood. So if you only want to detect non-glossy paint then it might work, but I had a different application in mind. It may have ways to tune the detection, but again no manual or even instructions. Too bad as it seems like it has possibilities way beyond this very limited application. I would NOT recommend this product. ## Frequently Bought Together - AMTAST Colorimeter Color Difference Meter 8MM Digital Precise Color Analyzer Coating Printing Testing Device - SimPure Centrifuge Tubes 15mL, Conical Tubes Sterile 50 PCS, Polypropylene, Leak-Proof Screw Caps, Plastic Container with Graduated and Write Marks, Non-pyrogenic, DNase/RNase Free, Human DNA-Free - Weewooday 8 Pieces PTFE Magnetic Mixer Stirrer Bar, White Color Stainless Steel Laboratory PTFE Stir Plate Bar, Mixing Plate Magnet Stick (30 mm/ 1.18 Inch) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/129249882-lab-colorimeter-model-amt599](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/129249882-lab-colorimeter-model-amt599) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-09-05*
