Our method

How we review

Every recommendation on KitchenCriteria follows the same process, so you can compare pages with confidence.

Materials matter

Construction, materials, care and compatibility come first, from the manufacturer's own specs.

A clear verdict

Each review says who the product suits, who should look elsewhere, and what to know before you buy. No filler, no hedging.

No paid placements

Brands cannot buy a review or a spot on a list. Partner codes save you money; they never decide what we recommend.

Kept current

Prices are dated, codes are updated across the site at once, and pages are revised when a product changes.

Where our facts come from

We use the manufacturer's published materials, dimensions, wattage, care instructions, compatibility (such as induction) and warranty terms.

Prices and codes

Prices come from each brand's own store and are dated on every review. Reader codes come directly from the brands we partner with. When a brand changes an offer, we update the code everywhere it appears on the site at once.

Corrections

If you spot something out of date, email [email protected] and we'll check it and fix it.
