Reviews say they are crap! I wouldn't waste my money when you can find out in a few months anyhow! They have a 50% chance of guessing correctly anyhow.

Don't bother, the 'science' behind them is complete crap. Just wait until 20 weeks and find out at the morph scan

I'd wait a few extra weeks and go for a 16 week gender scan, they are almost 100% accurate. There was no mistaking ours. This post has been edited by peebs: 25/08/2011, 02:31 PM

I find it funny even in the product description is says "Discover whether you may be having a boy or girl". I only had a quick look but they don't even say how reliable the test is.

I wish I had read this thread before I spent $79! What a complete waste of money. The colour was in between - not clear at all. I called them to complain and he tried to tell me that I was having a girl, based on the colour I described. I have written to them stating that I consider their packaging and marketing misleading.
