Lead Test Kit with 10 Pcs Lead Testing Swabs - Rapid Test Results in 30 Seconds - Suitable for All Painted Surfaces, Dishes Toy Jewelry Metal Ceramics Wood - Lead Paint Test Kit for Home Use (10 Pcs)

Used it in a science class and it worked well when testing for lead More convenient than making up the solution that is coated on the swabs

Bought these to test my kids toys for lead. All the wood painted toys tested negative but a bell that was advertised as stainless steel tested positive. The cotton swab turned pink immediately on contact. I will probably be buying more because 10 went fast.

Easy to use, can get a little messy but there are ways to manage that

These do not work. I tried these on a table that was built in 1950 and I'm almost positive it has lead. I tried it on antique chairs, and multiple other items that very very likely have lead. There was no reaction at all with this kit. I tried multiple times.

The instructions are easy to understand and one doesn’t need to wait long for the results.

These were really easy to use and helpful for verifying if there was lead in my dish ware! However, it was quite strange in terms of results.I used these on teacups, mostly. I put water in the cup, using that water for the swab. That water turned light purple. When I swabbed it, the swab only really changed color when testing the rim, which contained a gold paint. Testing on the normal paint gave rather minimal results, but did indicate presence of lead.TLDR for this paragraph: The water that turned purple was just inside the cup, but testing that area gave minimal change to swab color. Indicated lead presence, but didn’t seem too accurate.Generally quick to use and great value if you’re in a pinch. However, if you want to do more extensive testing, I would use something else.

Works well. Living in an old house, it told the story of leaded paint.
