A documentation-based review of the manufacturer’s listing and specifications. How we reviewed it
Our assessment
The Quick WaterCheck Basic Test belongs on a comparison list when its documented application matches your needs. The important next step is to verify the configuration and compatibility, rather than deciding from the product photograph alone.
What the listing gives you
- Supporting documents are available
The manufacturer links technical or installation documents. We have kept those references with the product research below.
- Identifiable part numbers
CQE-TS-5000. These are useful for asking the manufacturer about an exact configuration.
What deserves a closer look
- Fit comes first
Check the measurement range, calibration instructions and what the device cannot measure. A single reading is not a complete water analysis.
- Look beyond the listed price
Review calibration, consumables and handling instructions before comparing the instrument with a laboratory service or another meter.
- Confirm the complete package
Check the manufacturer’s included-parts information and whether the listed item is a complete system or an individual component. An image may also show optional equipment.
These are our reading of the published information and our buying considerations. They are not measured performance results.
The specifications, in context.

Multi-column comparison tables are preserved in full under Manufacturer reference.
Choose the configuration carefully.
Check the measurement range, calibration instructions and what the device cannot measure. A single reading is not a complete water analysis.

Quick WaterCheck Instructions
Sampling Instructions - Please Read Before Starting
Step 1
After the blue ice pack has been in your freezer for at least 8 hours, you can collect your water sample from an appropriate water faucet or spigot. If the spout has a strainer or aerator, remove it prior to sampling
Step 2
Samples must be shipped the same day they are collected via guaranteed next day delivery and must be collected after 1:00 p.m. EST to minimize time in transit. Do not collect and/ or ship your samples on a Friday, Saturday, Sunday, or the day before a National Holiday.
Fill both of the bottles, in order from 1 to 2 as shown in the picture to the right.
Bottle 1 - Before filling this bottle, disinfect the end and inside of the faucet spout using rubbing alcohol. After the faucet spout has been disinfected, flush it by running the water for 3 - 5 minutes. Remove the red tabbed plastic seal on the 125 mL plastic bottle. Do not touch the inside of the bottle or the inside of the cap. This bottle contains preservative. Do not rinse the preservative out of the bottle. Fill the bottle between the 100 mL and 120 mL fill lines. Do not fill any less or more as this will impact the analysis. [ see picture]. Replace the cap securely making sure not to touch the inside of the bottle or the inside of the cap.
Bottle 2 - Fill the 500 mL plastic bottle to the shoulder and replace the cap securely.
Step 3A
Complete the enclosed lab form, making sure to indicate the collection date and time you sampled, type of water, and sample identification (e.g. kitchen sink, well head,etc.) Return the blue ice pack to the kit and place the kit back in the cardboard box with the completed lab form.
Step 3B
Make arrangements to ship the kit by guaranteed next day delivery [or drop the kit off at our laboratory within 24 hours of collection, Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 5:00 pm] to the following address:
National Testing Laboratories
556 South Mansfield Street
Ypsilanti, MI 48197
If we do not receive your sample within 24 hours of sample collection or if you have not provided the date and time of collection, the bacteria results will be marked INVALID!
