How I Review

Key: Reviewing products to find QUALITY items at affordable prices.

I only do reviews on products that I have physically tested.

Shipping

 

Did the product arrive intact? Did it arrive by the time advised? Was it the correct product?

​

Discreetness

​

Can you tell what was in the package?

​

Unboxing Initial Thought(s)

​

My immediate thoughts when this package was opened. Were there issues with packaging? Was there any initial flaws noticed?

 

Package Contents

 

What is included in the package? Is there something missing? Was there a user manual? Was the user manual easy to understand?

​

Manufacturer Product Information

 

How much accurate information was provided by the manufacturer or seller? Was the seller honest?

​

Ease of set up

​

How easy was the product to set up or use? Were there any issues?

​

Term of use / Effectiveness -

​

How well did this product work initially vs long term? Does the product deliver an effective method of use?

​

Cost / Quality

​

How much did this product cost? What is the quality of the product? Could anything be improved to improve the quality?

​

Noise

​

Does the product make noise when being used? Is it loud / quiet / non-existent? Each product will vary.

​

Power Consumption

​

Actual wattage draw from the wall. Is the draw what the manufacturer or seller honest with the power usage (+/- 5%)?

​

Use the following formula to find out your monthly cost:

 

------------------------------------------

(Product Wattage) /1000 = KW (Per hour)

(KW) x Hours on = (KW/Day)

(KW/Day) x (30 Days) = Monthly KW usage.

Monthly KW usage x Your power rate = Cost per month to operate.

------------------------------------------

​

Test(s)

​

Depending on the product will determine the test. For example soil will be tested over a full grow period, A vaporizer will be used over the course of 2-3 months, Exhaust fans will be tested via having it run full tilt for several days then reduced to normal speed to provide a negative pressure environment and run for the duration of the grow period.

​

Pro(s) / Con(s) - (Not Rated)

​

A list of overall pros and cons summing up my finds, this will help determine my final decision on the product being reviewed.

​

​

The final yield should be important to growers. This will be listed as grams per plant. There are a lot of variables in this part, and thus will not be rated. I will however inform you.
