At Deepest Darkest China, we take pride in offering honest, thorough, and unbiased reviews of the most interesting products made in China. Here’s how we review products:
1. Where and When the Item Was Purchased
We always share where and when we purchased the product. This provides context on availability, stock changes, or pricing fluctuations. We typically buy from online platforms or directly from manufacturers, and we disclose the source in each review.
2. Price and Payment
We clearly state the price of the item. If we paid for it ourselves, we mention that. If the product was sponsored or provided for free, we disclose that upfront for transparency.
3. Company Information
When possible, we provide background on the company behind the product. This can include the company’s history, reputation, or any relevant information that helps readers understand the brand behind the product.
4. Realistic Reviewing
We aim for realistic and honest reviews based on a product’s performance and practicality. We evaluate how well the product fulfills its purpose and whether it lives up to its claims. Our reviews include both positives and negatives, ensuring a balanced perspective.
5. Scoring System (1 to 5 Stars)
We rate products on a 1 to 5-star scale. Factors influencing the score include:
- Value for Money: Is it worth the price?
- Quality: How well is it made? Is it durable?
- Safety: Are there any safety concerns?
- Comparison to Similar Products: How does it stack up against similar items?
Each of these factors is considered individually and then combined for the final score. A 1-star rating indicates issues, while a 5-star rating reflects a top-quality product.
