So let us tell you about the process.

First, we figure out what to test.

We always start by combing the market to figure out which products to test.

Once we find the products we want to test, we usually buy them ourselves.

Sometimes we will ask for samples, but we never exchange good reviews just because something was free.

This way, we can give you all the information you better make your own decision.

Next, we start crafting our testing standards.

… “Does the price seem to line up with how it worked?”

… “Does it look nice sitting out on my counter?

Then it’s on to the lab!

We know every shopper is differentand therefore want to confirm we’re paying attention to various needs and circumstances.

That way we can help a diverse audience with their shopping needs.

After the lab, we turn to the home testers.

Lastly, we share the best with you!

Then we share our lists with you!

We promise every product review will include detailed notes from our testers with photos.

Also, just because we’ve published a review, doesn’t mean our work is done.

All products may occasionally be subject to recalls, including those we recommended.

If that happens, we do our very best to revise our reviews as soon as we can.
