How the awards work
There is no entry process because there is nothing to enter. I cannot be submitted to, and a brand cannot pay to be considered — not for a fee, not for a gifted product, not for an advertising commitment elsewhere on this site.
A category gets a winner when I have used enough things in it to have an opinion worth publishing. Some categories will stay empty for a year, which is the honest outcome and not a gap to be filled.
Award seals are not licensed for use on packaging or in advertising. If you see one on a product box, it did not come from me. The full policy is on the editorial standards page.
