  • REVIEWS
    Due to limited time we can afford spending on free projects we only review carefully selected books, local venues, products and services that we personally love or we know our readers would benefit from reading about them. Majority of the reviews will be included in Tried & Tested round-up published at the end of the month while some products will be reviewed on their own in separate article. We reserve the right not to feature all received products, especially “sample sized” samples below £20 (value of 1 hour work). For guaranteed coverage please choose one of the paid advertising options above.
    Local restaurants will be considered for being reviewed on the blog only for meals worth £60+ (value of 3 hour work).
    We do not use brand’s product shots in our reviews, instead we photograph items that we actually got to try and test ourselves so please, make sure the packaging is undamaged as it will look better in the pictures. Reviews can be also included in the giveaway / competition articles.
