# Our review process

What goes into every review on this site.

## 1\. Research

We start with the manufacturer's official specs and documentation, then cross-check against the Amazon product listing.

## 2\. Owner feedback synthesis

We read through current verified-buyer reviews on Amazon, kamado forums (Kamado Guru, Reddit r/kamado), and YouTube long-term owner videos. We summarize the patterns — what owners praise consistently, and what they complain about after a season of cooking.

## 3\. Hands-on context

Where we've cooked on the model ourselves, we say so. Where we haven't, we say that too — and we lean harder on owner feedback for our judgement.

## 4\. Independent commentary

Every review includes original analysis: who the grill is best for, where it falls short, and which alternatives we'd shortlist against it. We never copy Amazon's bullet points.

## 5\. Editorial review

Every page is read end-to-end before publishing for accuracy, tone, and Amazon Associates compliance.

## 6\. Updates

Reviews are revisited at least annually, and immediately when a model is replaced or significantly revised.
