I found that they all work the same! I get generic ones cause they are cheaper and they never lied to me!

I thought the generic ones always said positive and negative all the time it would switch off so I got clearblue and that works alot better u get results instantly. First response doesnt work that well especially if u are and dont know how far along u are cause I took a first response and it said negative and I took clearblue 4 times and it was positive and it even reads out pregnant on the screen. So thats when I went to the doctor Smile so best one is clearblue...I got an extra one Wink lol

Actually, believe it or not, the best hpts are the generic ones...The cvs brands, eckerd, where ever..Because they test for lower levels of hcg..Meaning you'll get a positive result sooner with those...*ept* tests for 40miu's of hcg and *1st response one step* tests for 100miu's....Soo if ur testing early, ur best bet would be to buy a cvs brand test, aimstep, clear blue easy earliest result, or 1st response early result(15-25 miu's)...If u want the list of the tests and the amount of hcg needed for it to be detected let me know!....I've done my research! Lol best of luck hun!
