Summary
Must be used in combination with a diamond tester, i.e. if a simple (thermal conductivity) diamond tester says the stone might be diamond or Moissanite (you won't know which!), test it on this to see if it's Moissanite.
Accuracy / Guarantee
A 'Moissanite' reading on this tester indicates that there's a probability that the stone is Moissanite. It is not guaranteed, the latest Moissanites will show up as diamond on this tester and most synthetic diamonds show up as Moissanite. In addition, the slightest layer of grease on the stone (e.g. by touching it with your finger) will give incorrect results.
All testers have their limitations, see our article about how to choose a diamond tester.

Alternatives
The MOISSANITE tester detects most Moissanites. However, you must only test stones that you think might be diamond (e.g. you have tested them on a thermal diamond tester). For a summary of all diamond and gem testers see the Comparison Chart, or see a more detailed explanation of what the various types of tester can (and can't) detect at our Guide to Buying Diamond Testers.

Firstly, you did not order a gem diamond tester, you ordered a Moissanite tester. The opening sentence of the product description is, "Must be used in combination with a diamond tester, i.e. if a simple (thermal conductivity) diamond tester says the stone might be diamond or Moissanite (you won't know which), test it on this to see if it's Moissanite".
It's not very fair to give a one-star rating because you ordered the wrong item.
Secondly, we haven't received yet. We can't give a refund until we have received it. I understand it is now at our local Royal Mail Delivery office. We will collect it tomorrow.
