Methodology
How we work
How this site tests, researches, and sources every claim — hands-on when we can, published specs when we can't, always cited.
- 01
When we've tested it
A review page on this site means someone here actually used the product, for as long as its tested-on date implies, with at least three independent sources backing the specific claims made. If we haven't personally used something, it doesn't get a review page.
- 02
When we haven't
For a category we haven't personally used, the honest move isn't to fake a test. It's a comparison instead, built entirely from what the manufacturers themselves publish — every spec cited, dated, and checkable, with no claim of hands-on testing anywhere on the page.
- 03
How we handle affiliate relationships
Commission never decides rank or inclusion. Every recommendation on this site discloses its affiliate relationship above the fold, not in a footer — see the full disclosure page.
Most of what's on this site is exactly what it says it is: a review means someone here actually used the product. Where that isn't true yet, the alternative isn't silence or a fabricated test — it's a comparison, cited entirely from public sources, labeled for what it is. Every factual claim, tested or researched, carries a citation with a URL and the date it was checked; citations older than the staleness window are re-checked or removed automatically, enforced by the build, not by an editor's memory.
