From candidate to conclusion

Our review process

A product moves through identity checks, source review, structured comparison and — only when documented — hands-on use. Each stage has a visible evidence status.

01

1. Define the use case

We name the child, age, play style, space and competing products before choosing criteria.

02

2. Verify the record

Model, dimensions, materials, warnings, instructions and market availability are checked against current sources.

03

3. Test when possible

Hands-on work records sample source, tester, date, duration, setting, photos and limitations.

04

4. Compare and update

Conclusions include alternatives, drawbacks and review dates. Meaningful changes trigger a new review.
