Our Team<\/h2>\n
Our team of shopping experts and<\/span>\u00a0product reviewers <\/span>has more than 25 combined <\/span><\/span>years of experience in professional product selection and testing. But <\/span>we\u2019re<\/span> also everyday shoppers who aim to <\/span>purchase<\/span> the best products for the lowest price. Meet our <\/span>team:<\/span><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We’ve built a first-rate testing program that showcases our commitment to authenticity and rigorous testing. Our team of in-studio and on-location testers methodically yet authentically put products through their paces so that our audience can click “add to cart” with confidence.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Our team\u2019s biggest responsibility is to our readers. You can trust that when a product appears on our site, it\u2019s been hand-chosen by one of our shopping experts, each with years of experience under their belt. We\u2019re truly fans of every single recommendation we publish\u2014we\u2019ll never push a product we find faulty or unworthy of coverage.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We\u2019re always on the lookout for the latest products and brands that can make your lives easier and your days brighter. When we\u2019re not sending products to expert freelancers, we\u2019re speaking to leading professionals in the fields of food, kitchenware and home<\/span>\u00a0to incorporate their tips into our work.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n As shopping experts, testing products is one of the most important\u2014and most fun!\u2014parts of the job. After all, how can we recommend products in good faith without getting our hands on them ourselves? <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n We follow rigorous guidelines and testing methodologies to arrive at the very best products. Whether we\u2019re sampling meal delivery subscription boxes or pitting toasters against one another to see which achieves the perfect shade, we treat each product with the care and journalistic curiosity it deserves. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n When possible, we test products side-by-side with similar competitors,<\/span> comparing qualities our readers care the most about such as pricepoint, accessibility, durability and design. <\/span>We often include multiple testers to remove bias and personal preference from the equation. We also factor in reviews from across the internet from real, everyday people to form a more complete picture of a product\u2019s worthiness.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Some other qualities we evaluate:<\/p>\n Based in Milwaukee, our dedicated lab offers 400 square feet of space to put products through their paces. The lab space is specifically designed to handle an array of products, from vacuums to subscription boxes to anti-theft bags, ensuring a thorough evaluation process across various categories. Our team, led by experts in product testing and editorial standards, manages the operations of our lab. Here\u2019s a snapshot of our day-to-day inside the lab:<\/p>\n![\"A](\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/How-We-Test-and-Evaluate-Products_PTT_BTS_062024_EF_6673.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\")
