I read about it in a gardening forum where people were talking about good soil pH meters and how hard they are to find (which they are!). Someone suggested this one as an inexpensive, but reliable alternative to the Hanna's and Horiba's, which are well over $300+ so I decided to give it a try. This is after trying the RapidTest kits and meters, which are all garbage, save your money. The RapidTest kit with the capsules is useful but not for repeat use. This Control Wizard pH/moisture Meter worked beautifully and gives me pH in about 2-3 minutes in any area of my garden. It also is a very accurate indicator for moisture at various depths of your soil bed or pots. I found this meter to be a life saver in my garden and would recommend it to anyone who wants a reliable way to determine soil health. Make sure you follow the instructions for it and keep it clean using the brush provided, and don't touch or wipe off the rod with your hands, the oils from them interfere with pH readings. You should also not leave it in the soil for too long or try to test liquids with it. Do this and it will keep your meter healthy for a very long time. An excellent investment for under $75! Review: not as pictured - this item works good but is not delivered as pictured. it is NOT the meter with an extension to make it longer. it is one piece with the extention being part of the meter so it does NOT fit in the storage container that i purchased for it acording to thr specififcations ## Features - Now you can check soil ph. at multiple depths - the probe is 12” long for extra large planters - This meter can measure ph. and moisture at depths up to 12 inches - no batteries are required - The accurate ph. 8 utilizes the electronic ground field effect of the earth on two dissimilar metals - This meter comes with a cleaning pad ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0746XC9XB | | Best Sellers Rank | #1,106,956 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ( See Top 100 in Patio, Lawn & Garden ) #871 in Soil Meters | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (46) | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 4 ounces | | Item model number | 716578 | | Manufacturer | cONTROL WIZARD | | Product Dimensions | 21.4 x 4.2 x 2 inches | ## Images ![CWP 716578 Accurate pH 8 Soil Meter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41JaSvzbUxL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Real Deal... *by J***B on September 24, 2010* This meter is impressive!

My first one lasted 5 years. It worked great and gave me very accurate readings . I made the mistake of letting someone from church borrow it, because they too are avid gardeners. Unfortunately they tried to take a reading of an area that was very hard clay and they tried forcing the meter in and the meter stem broke. Lesson Learned !! Don’t loan out your meter !! This meter is not your ordinary Home Depot special. It is an expensive meter . I have 28 raised beds and grow all sorts of roses , blueberries, raspberries and blackberries as well all sorts of vegetables. I need to make sure the ph of the soil in each individual raised bed is where I need it to be in order to get the desired results. Can’t go wrong with this meter . --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/47770808-cwp-716578-accurate-ph-8-soil-meter](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/47770808-cwp-716578-accurate-ph-8-soil-meter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-24*
