How do we find the best of everything?
Our approach begins with an in-depth investigation into market leaders, and understanding why they hold that position. Once we’ve pinpointed the top contenders, we put them to the test through a meticulous review process, designed to answer the very questions you’d ask before making decisions.
Firstly, we scrutinize the claimed purpose of a product or service. If a product touts itself as an “all-in-one cleaning tool”, our focus centers on its cleaning efficacy. For services positioning as a "one-stop-shop for home essentials”, we assess the breadth and quality of their offerings.
During testing, we meticulously compare features against the competition, highlighting exclusive strengths and flagging any shortcomings. We also evaluate the product's value relative to its price point, ensuring a fair assessment.
Recognizing the subjective nature of individual experiences, we incorporate real customer feedback to gauge overall quality, taking note of both praises and criticisms. Additionally, we observe how brands or companies respond to customer input.
After a thorough examination, the ultimate question arises: Would we buy it? If the answer is affirmative, the product or service earns a coveted spot on our list of the best in Auckland. If not, we will continue the search until we find options that meet our stringent standards.
