I've spent the last three months testing zero turn mowers on everything from gentle slopes to 20-degree inclines that made my insurance agent nervous. After rolling two mowers (safely, with ROPS), burning through countless tanks of gas, and getting thoroughly acquainted with every safety feature imaginable, I can tell you exactly which models handle hills […]

I spent the last month testing various attic insulation options in my own home and several client projects, measuring temperature differences and tracking energy bills.

After testing 11 double jogging strollers over the past three months with my twin toddlers and a 4-year-old, I've learned exactly what separates a great running stroller from one that'll gather dust in your garage.

After testing commercial dehumidifiers in warehouses, basements, and flood-damaged buildings for the past six months, I can tell you that choosing the wrong unit costs more than just money.

After evaluating dozens of models and reading hundreds of customer reviews, I discovered […]

Last summer, I watched my neighbor's 3-year-old nearly slip through their backyard gate toward their pool. That heart-stopping moment reminded me why pool fences aren't just another home improvement project – they're lifesaving barriers. According to the CDC, drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1-4, with most incidents happening in residential […]

Finding a quality table saw under $500 that delivers professional results without compromising on safety or accuracy can feel overwhelming. After spending two months testing 12 different models in our workshop, we narrowed it down to 6 saws that truly deliver value at this price point. I've been working with table saws for over 15 […]

I spent the last three months testing stubble trimmers, and let me tell you - finding one that actually maintains that perfect 5 o'clock shadow without leaving patches is harder than it looks. After going through 8 different models, testing them on various beard types, and even consulting with two professional barbers, I've found some […]

I've been to enough tailgate parties to know that nothing kills the vibe faster than a generator that sounds like a jet engine. Last season, we tested 11 different generators at actual tailgating events, and the difference between models was shocking. While some units had people shouting over the noise, others ran so quietly we […]

I spent three months turning my backyard into a pizza testing lab, and my neighbors couldn't be happier. After making over 200 pizzas across 10 different outdoor ovens, I've learned that achieving restaurant-quality pizza at home isn't just possible – it's easier than you think with the right equipment. The outdoor pizza oven market has […]
