How Counter Crew works

This page outlines how we test products, cite sources, and keep shopping fields current. When we use affiliate links, we may earn a commission; that does not change the price you pay. See the affiliate disclosure and contact us if you spot something that looks out of date.

Our review process

  • Step 1

    We measure width, depth, and height on every appliance with a steel rule — not manufacturer rounding.

  • Step 2

    Each pick is evaluated for cord length, vent clearance, and cabinet swing interference.

  • Step 3

    Pricing is re-checked weekly; stale affiliate links are removed within 7 days.

  • Step 4

    We disclose every affiliate relationship in plain English at the top of the relevant article.

  • Step 5

    Reader corrections are answered within 72 hours and folded into the article when valid.
