How We Review Products

Every product is personally purchased, handled, or checked out by our family.

📋 Our Review Process

1

We Buy It Ourselves

Every product reviewed on this site was purchased with our own money from our local Costco warehouse or Costco.com. No freebies, no samples, no sponsored products. Our wallet is on the line just like yours.

2

We Use It as a Family

Products get real-world testing in our household of six. Food items are taste-tested by the whole family (including our four kids). Tech products, clothing, and home goods are used in our daily routines for at least a week before we review.

3

We Rate on 5 Categories

Each product is rated on a 5-star scale across five categories: Overall Rating, Quality, Value for Money, Longevity, and Shipping/Handling. This gives you a complete picture, not just a single number.

4

We Share the Good AND the Bad

Not everything at Costco is a winner. If a product disappoints, we will tell you why. Every review includes honest pros, cons, and our family verdict so you can decide for yourself.

5

We Welcome Your Reviews Too

Every article has a community review section where you can leave your own star ratings and comments. Your voice matters and helps other Costco shoppers make better decisions.
