Get it!

Comes with two tests in box, easy instructions and accurate. My boyfriend and I had been exposed but had no symptoms, bought these and tested ourselves, I was negative he was positive so he went to dr to confirm, and he was positive. Super accurate and great to have 10/10

DECEIPTFUL Marketing. This is NOT good for travel and should not be used.

Revising my review because this is a total sham. There is a test available for order from emed.com that is good for travel and the box looks almost the same. THIS TEST IS NOT GOOD FOR TRAVEL. And there is no indication on the box or the marketing material that this is the case. I feel totally duped and out $400 because I had to pay for testing in another country when I thought I was covered by these tests. DO NOT BUY if you want to use this to gain entry back into the US.

Gives peace of mind

Update: My child developed fever, ear pain, fatigue, and woozy headedness. I took him to urgent care and they did a send off test but it wasn’t to be back for at least a few days so I gave him this test once we got home. It is a faint positive but definitely +. I am glad that I had this so I didn’t have to wait so long for an answer. The next day the school nurse insisted on doing her own test and it was the exact same test with the exact same results. This kit is easy to use with easy to follow instructions. My kids were exposed to Covid so I tested them a couple times as a precaution. I tried another brand which wasn’t as easy. I ordered more of these to have on hand since Covid isn’t going anywhere. I’m sure these test will be needed for years to come.

Convenient for peace of mind. Stock up for the school year

Last year we had to take my allergy-riddled daughter to get 7 different covid tests during the school year. Every time, they were negative. But with congestion and other similar symptoms, we wanted to be safe. This BinaxNOW COVID-19 Antigen Self Test makes it so much more convenient! it is easy to use. If you have used a pregnancy test, you can use this test. I highly recommend stocking up on these tests for the new school year.

Antigen test, not antibody test. Know the difference.

These kits are amazing. Everyone should have at least one box on standby for quick peace of mind. To the people who give it one star because it didn't detect antibodies: it isn't designed to. This is an antigen test. Antigens and antibodies are two very different things.

Must have for grandparents

I got these for my sons grandparents so they can come play together. I don’t see any other ways to keep some normal social interactions without testing immediately prior to meeting up, and this really makes it easy. Just wish it’s cheaper.

It Works Very Well

I bought this test from Walgreens. I had a sore throat and was slightly congested, so I figured I’d test. I followed the instructions exactly, and it showed positive instantly. It was such a strong positive that I thought it was the control line at first. I went for a PCR test the next day, and it confirmed that I had Covid. This test was accurate, easy to use, and the instructions were very clear. I also like that you don’t have to push the swab so far into your nose. I swabbed my kids and husband, and they were all negative. I’m always going to have one of these tests on hand. I also tested positive with the at home test from Quidel, but this test was much easier and more convenient to use. I highly recommend BinaxNOW.

This is NOT an antibody test. It tests for a protein that is present when the virus is present.

Easy to use and extremely accurate if it says you have COVID. Like most tests a negative (I.e. no COVID) is less reliable due to many factors such as: user error, poor sample collection, or you are not shedding virus at the time of the test. That’s why they provide 2 tests. Test once then test in 3 or so days again. This test will NOT tell you if you have antibodies. It’s an antigen test.

$12 a test. Should be standard in every home

Super easy to use. Fast. Cheap. This is a rapid test to do at home- which is not as good as “gold standard” PCR test that you send out to labs and takes a day or several days. This is not a test to measure antibodies in blood. Its can’t see if you are vaccinated or not. It measures virus and looks like a pregnancy test. It’s a nose swab at front of nose (not the back of nose). Kids, teens and adults can do it. We are all vaccinated of course if over 12 y.o. We mask indoors. We don’t let anyone unvaccinated in house without a mask. We do almost everything outdoors. But still- I get paranoid. It’s not a perfect test but it’s an easy screen to feel a bit safer. Abbott needs to ramp up production big time.

STOP TRYING TO TEST FOR VACCINE ANTIBODIES

People reviewing are saying the tests don’t work because they’ve been vaccinated and it doesn’t show antibodies. To detect vaccine antibodies you need a spike protein test, not a regular antibody test. Only a spike protein test will detect antibodies from a spike protein vaccine. These tests are accurate and are for testing infection. Why are people wasting these tests that are in limited supply to see if their vaccine antibodies show up? A waste of limited resources and money because they don’t understand the science behind how tests work.
