A good Ph meter?

Anyone know of a good PH meter for testing garden soil?

This one seems to have the best reviews.

Really, a lot of them have mixed reviews and that's what I've heard here as well.

If you want an accurate test, it would be a much better idea to send a soil sample to your local extension agency. That will give you the best results.

hmm, yeah I just went with that one, its the same one I had my eye on early this year. Only thing I don't like is its quite expensive, but it should pay itself off. I just get sick of the cheap ones that work once and then don't the second time. Thanks Garden5.
