How we choose products
We compare published specifications. We do not test products hands-on, and we say so on every guide.
What we do
- Shortlist models sold on Amazon India
- Take specs from the maker's own product page
- List the maker pages our figures come from in each guide's Sources
- Show who each product suits and where it falls short
- Write "Not stated" when a maker does not publish a figure
What we never do
- Accept payment for a place in a guide
- Claim to have tested a product
- Copy prices or star ratings into a page
- Guess a spec the maker does not publish
How we weigh things
These weights are indicative: they show what we pay most attention to, not a formula that produces a score. Each guide's verdict explains its top pick.
| Criterion | What we look at | Indicative weight |
|---|---|---|
| Fit for the use | The specs that matter for the guide's reader, such as motor power for batter or capacity for a family of four | 40% |
| Build and safety | Materials, protection features such as overload or boil-dry cut-offs, and certifications the maker lists | 25% |
| Warranty and service | How long the warranty runs, what it covers, and whether the motor or element has its own cover | 20% |
| Value | Features and build against others in the same class | 15% |
Where the facts come from
Every figure in a guide, such as wattage, capacity, jar count or warranty length, comes from the manufacturer's own product page or manual. Each guide lists those pages under Sources. When a listing on Amazon and the maker's page disagree, we use the maker's figure and say so.
Why we show weak points
No product suits every home. Each pick carries a "Suits" line and a "Falls short" line so you can rule a product out as quickly as you can rule it in.
