Testing Labs

Reviewed has a lab set up in its Cambridge headquarters where reporters and scientists on staff can test the latest appliances, televisions, headphones, and other products against standard benchmarks to judge overall quality.[3] The chief scientist designs rigorous tests for products like dishwashers and water purifiers that, in some cases, can takes months to complete.[4] The site focuses on single-product and roundup reviews of products, typically with two products named as Editors’ Choice recommendations.[5] Revenue is made through blend of affiliate commissions and advertising.[2] [6]
