Water test kit

Hello! I was wondering what test kit is good for a beginner? I want the absolut best for my fish and would love to have more challenging fish in the future but small steps lol.
I only have test-strips which are notoriously bad at reading the parameters of my water. And are wrong and un-readable most of the time.
I’m looking for something that will last me a while and that is worth the money but especially trustworthy and easy to use for someone that has never done it before.
And for reference I live in Sweden if that helps. I’m planning on buying it myself because my foster parents think it’s unnecessary.
All tips are greatly appreciated!

Aquarium filter questions

Hey! I’m still a newbie att fish keeping and I’ve had my tank for about three months, almost four months. The only fish I have in the tank is pepper corydoras and male guppys.
The tank is 70 liters.
But my question is how often should I change the filters? On the pamphlet that came with the juwel aquarium start kit it says to change filter every few weeks or so depending in what filter media that is changed but I’ve heard that you are not supposed to change the filters at all or you risk crashing your tank.
Any advice? I want the best for my fishes. Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated!
