How we assess products

Gigareview UK compares products using published specifications, instructions, warranty information and clearly labelled editorial judgement. We do not present our scores as laboratory test results unless hands-on testing has actually taken place.

Scoring principles

Criteria vary by category and may include performance, capacity, energy use, controls, usability, construction, warranty and value. A product can rank highly for a specific household even when it is not the strongest all-rounder.

Corrections and updates

Products, specifications and availability change. Each commercial guide displays an update date and should be rechecked before publication.

Commercial independence

Affiliate commission may be earned after a qualifying purchase, but it does not determine ranking order or editorial score.
