The
Guides

We already bought the wrong one, so these take a while to write. Seven are on the bench, five of them are up, and the last two are still coming. We would rather put up four honest ones than six pages of filler.

The last two — 06 and 07 — are titles, not articles yet. They stay plain until they are written, because a dead link is worse than a plain line. Until then the honest answer on those two is on the aisle pages — every price on this site has a line under it saying what we would buy again.

How we pick things

We don't take your money. The stores do.

Some links on this site are affiliate links, which means a store pays us a cut when you buy. It does not change your price and it does not decide what we recommend — it is the reason we can tell you the $14 one is fine. If one of the three of us has not owned a thing and hosed it off, it does not go on the shelf.
