I didn't like the Ca at all, and sold it. Alk is OK, but the other tests are super easy for that one anyways. Phosphate is great. Bought that one, loved it, bought the others, and have been a little disapointed.

There have definitely been a lot of complaints about the Hanna Calcium Checker, and plenty of praise for the Hanna Phosphate Checker. Murdoch brings up a good point that the alkalinity test is very simple (with any brand). I haven't tried any of the Hanna Checkers since I have been very happy with results of the different (and cheaper!) test kits I currently use.
My preferred test kits with second choice in brackets: Calcium - Elos (API) Alkalinity - Elos (API) Magnesium - Salifert Nitrate - API (Salifert) Ammonia - API Phosphate - D-D Merck pH - handheld meter only, test kits are garbage.

Alk is an easy Elos test, so I'll stick to that too. I do have a Hanna PO4 meter, it's ok....
