[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "I've been waiting to get CLINITEST COVID tests since they were EUA-ed. They're supposed to be the most accurate rapid antigen test on the market. Sensitivity of like 92% or something and specificity of like 99.9%. All the contents were in the box-5 of everything (swabs, solution, tests). Easy to use. Insurance reimburses bc its less than $12 per test ($10). Cheapest, but best quality I've seen so far, and I've used Abbott, BD Veritor, and iHealth. Came in plastic packaging but no damage to box."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'In my very unofficial experiment at home, this test was found to be the most accurate. I tested my 7 year old three times. Once with this brand, another with Lucera and a third with BINAX. All done the same day over a 2 hour span. Siemens was the only one that was positive. I questioned whether this was a false positive but subsequent PCR was positive as well. And only the Clinitest had shown it. Obviously a small, unofficial home experiment but all 3 swabs were excellent, directions followed perfectly. This one is highly recommended.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Works as intended. Showed me quickly that I was infected. (cough cough).\n\nDespite statements to the contrary, there is zero requirement to use an app with this test. It's really simple. What you see is two lines in a window. (Just like a pregnancy test.) I don't see how you would even use an app with this. That other fellow must be confusing this with something else."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Nice simple design with clearly written instructions. Easier to use than some of the earlier Covid-19 at home tests I have tried. Very clear, easier to read results. Some of the other tests I have used had barely visible control and test lines.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on April 13, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "app based crap with forced account signup and very invasive questioning that'd get most institutions dinged by a review board, get other brand tests."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I ordered these tests before reading the reviews and was a bit worried after seeing that others received kits with missing pieces or needed to download an app to see their results. Thankfully, my box arrived intact with all of the components for five tests. I thought I was missing the tube holder, as someone else had mentioned in their review, but it turns out the box itself is the tube holder — there are perforations in the back that you punch out and use to hold the solution tube while your swab sits in it for one minute. My test results were easy to read, just like all of the other rapid tests I used. I’ll likely order another box when I run out!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'We’ve been using these regularly after receiving the free ones. They are so easy to use, quick and accurate, as well as affordable. We use these very regularly to keep family safe when we get together. Another reviewer mentioned theirs didn’t come with a tray, but the directions show that the box itself is the tray. There are two small perforated holes to punch out on the side of the box, and they are made to be the right size for the test tubes to stand up in. Definitely recommend these!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on March 17, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Easy to use, reliable and fast. And more: it’s the cheapest in the market!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 17, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Well, unfortunately they work… and I tested positive. Lol - It was eventually going to happen to me anyway. I managed to make it 2.5 years without catching this virus. I guess it was finally my time.\n\nSwipe both sides of your nose for about 15 seconds at a time with the swab, insert into the tube with the liquid in if, leave it sit for about a minute, spin it and squeeze the container to release as much from the swab as you can, place four drops into the tester after you apply the dropper to the top of the tube (and toss the swab out), wait 15 minutes (the results start to show sooner than that), and there’s your result.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2022', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "Like most everyone else, I found the test to be quite easily done and believe the results to be accurate. I also felt that this kit offers good value for the money spent.\n\n**Note** - I see one review that mentions that there wasn't enough solution left after placing the cotton swab into the tube to retrieve the four drops required to complete the test. There is not an abundance of solution to begin with and the directions do tell you to squeeze the fluid back out of the swab before removing it completely. I found that the plastic tube can easily withstand a fair amount of pressure from the outside to extract the fluid. Don't hesitate to give the swab a hearty squeeze, you should be fine. I always had plenty of fluid to run the test with the full four drops and then some."}]
