What is the best (accurate, easy) water testing kit out there?

I use API for everything but ammonia, for that I use the Seachem ammonia alert.

What makes API superior? I was looking at the Red Sea kits.

I also use API for everything. I did buy the seachem ammonia alert that hangs inside my tank but it didn't work for me when my ammonia levels did rise I just caught in time and the alert didn't indicate the rise for a couple hours. They are also inaccurate after the ammonia level drops as it can take it 10-15 hrs to show the change. I love seachem products it has helped me save my tank prime and stability together work wonders IMO save the money from the alert and test with the liquid tests this way you know 100%
