Methodology
How we research, score, and correct
Our goal is for you to be able to re-derive every recommendation we make.
Where our data comes from
Product specifications in our catalog are sourced from manufacturer-published data. We do not invent specifications, and we treat marketing claims (battery life “up to” figures, for example) as claims rather than measurements.
How Match Score works
A Match Score expresses how well a product fits a specific set of requirements. It is computed deterministically from the catalog data against the constraints and preferences you provide — not from a reviewer’s personal taste. The same requirements always produce the same score.
How editorial picks are chosen
Buying guides and “Editor’s Pick” labels reflect our own judgment, based on the catalog data and, where relevant, hands-on or widely reported usage. These picks are never paid for and are not ranked by affiliate commission.
Independence from commerce
We keep commercial relationships separate from editorial work. Our recommendations are not influenced by retailers or advertisers, and no one pays to appear in our guides. See our Affiliate Disclosure for how we earn money.
Corrections
If we publish something wrong, we correct it and, where appropriate, note the correction. If you spot an error, email us at hello@whatfitsyoubest.com with the page and the source.
