How We Pick

Last updated November 10, 2026

MyBestPick compares products on the specs that matter to buyers and names one Best Pick and a Top 3 in each category every month. Here is exactly how that works.

1. Choosing which products to cover

We start with products that are widely sold, widely reviewed and available to buyers in the United States and United Kingdom. We aim for about 15 models per category, from budget to premium.

2. Collecting the specs

• We take specs from manufacturer pages and from published, independent reviews, and we list those sources under every product.
• If two sources disagree, we show both or say which one we used and why.
• If we cannot confirm a spec, we mark it "Not confirmed" instead of guessing.
• Some figures are estimates (for example, room coverage worked out from an air purifier's CADR). We label these as estimates.

3. Choosing the Best Pick and Top 3

Each month we review the specs on this site alongside recent published reviews. The Best Pick is the product we think suits most buyers in that category, weighing performance, ongoing costs (such as subscriptions or filters) and price. The reason for each pick is written under its name.

4. What we do not do

• We do not run our own lab tests. Battery life, suction, coverage and similar figures come from manufacturers or reviewers.
• Brands cannot pay to be included or to rank higher.
• Commission rates do not influence which product we pick.

5. Prices

Prices on MyBestPick are list prices or retailer listings at the time of research, not live Amazon prices. Always check the current price on Amazon before you buy.
