    Easy to use
    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was nervous to use it, but had to know if there was mold in the bathroom. It was safe and easy, and know I can rest soundly knowing there isn't mold and I didn't have to go through an inspector to come out.

      Easy Test Kit!
      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This MOLD ARMOR Do It Yourself Mold Test Kit is quite easy to use. The instructions are clear and simple to follow. The set-up time is minimal. After waiting the required amount of time, you can easily tell if you have mold. The test can be submitted for a lab analysis as well. I would recommend this test kit to others if they are curious about the possibility of mold.

        Kit works great!
        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This mold detection kit is easy to use and results were clear. We were able to detect mold in our garage early before it became harmful. We are currently having the sample sent to test for which type but in the mean time we were able to hire someone to treat it.

                    Good for evaluating the presence of any Mold
                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this because I have been having allergy issues anytime I walk into our shed. So I took a couple swabs and put them in the Petri dishes and sent them off to be analyzed. They did come back positive for two different mold spores. Because of the possible dangers, I had a remediation company come out and treat the areas needed. This product works and can help in both testing and identification as long as you follow the instructions on how to use properly.

                      Investigation of mold
                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Mold Armor kit is do it yourself and very easy to understand. You can test the air quality by just setting in a main room open for a short period. After you close it back up, allow 24-48 hrs. If nothing develops allow a few extra days. Once the results are clear, the box allows you to send it off for identification of exact mold species!

                        Did not work for me
                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am giving it a three star because I made the mistake of spilling it all over the place. The kit comes with a petri dish sterile qtips and potato dextrose liquid. I followed instructions poured the dextrose into the dish and kept lid off to collect air sample in my house. When I went to close and tape the dish it fell all over the place so my sample had to go into the garbage. It is very hard to keep the dish closed and tape at the same time. The dish does not snap n place so any type of slight turn that lid is coming off. Usually for a petri dish there is a special tape that is used for it so it doesn't need to be picked up and taped. Great idea poor design only because it does not come with the special tape. I am so sorry I could not give better results but I am sure it does work. Also comes with a mail in envelope to send to lab to find out what type of mold growth you have.

                          Simple
                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tried out my mold armor do it yourself test kit. Very simple instructions to follow. Was able to get my results quick. I knew I might have mold and the kit verified it. My only problem now is can I clean the mold myself or do I got a call professional in. Going to get two more kits for two more rooms.

                            [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This kit is really easy to use. Just take out the petri dish, take off the lid, pour the liquid in. There are 3 ways to test. Indoor air quality, HVAC, or when mold is visible on surface. Great way to know what is in your air.

                              [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I suspected mold in my bathroom and wanted to test for myself if it was true. Thankfully I didn’t have to be a scientist to figure out how to use this product. I filled the directions and was able to test for mold all by myself.

                                [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is a wonderful product, with mold issues causing so many health problems and the importance of knowing if mold is present in your living space, this product is a necessity! It’s so easy to use just follow the included instructions and seal up test sample in the provided postage paid envelope. I love this and this should be something you do for peace of mind in knowing your home is safe.

                                  [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this section in our house with mold and I wanted to test the air quality and also what type of mold ut could be. This kit was easy to use and has an envelope to send to the labs to test. The test results comes within a week. I just liked that it was at at home kit to do it myself, then have someone come out say we had mold when I know we do.

                                    Not sure about this mold detection
                                    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I followed the instructions and still not sure if I did it right nor sure if the results are accurate. Maybe I’m just not understanding, but the instructions need to be more detailed. Can’t give good or bad reviews because it may just be my error.

                                      [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We were not sure if we had mold in our attic. It always has a stench. We used this test kit and found no mold. This is super easy to use, and puts our mind to ease. Directions were very clear. We can now rest easy knowing we have no mold in the attic.

                                        [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have suspected mold in a bedroom and this DIY test kit helped ease my mind. The instructions were fairly easy to follow. After setup, if you find an excessive amount of mold growth, you can pay to send it out and have the mold tested. I find that process inexpensive compared to bringing out a mold specialist to check the home. Highly recommended if you're looking to save money and find out if you have toxic mold in your home. Will be buying more.

                                          [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Mold Armor kit was perfect. Very easy to use as long as you follow the instructions given. Used in a bathroom I suspected to have mold and it came back positive. The petri dish supplied was sufficient in size. The chemicals do not leave any odor or any type of mess to clean up. The only downfall is that I have to send it to a lab to see what specific mold it is. I am still waiting for the result but it has only been a week.

                                            It advertises safe and easy to use, yet it states on the lab report not to use to use basically for environmental safety. It contraindicated the purpose. Furthermore after paying for lab analysis it missed that toxic mold was present. One may believe the mold present isn’t an issue based on lab results that isn’t accurate when that’s false.
