Our editorial approach
How 8888 UK uses product information, explains recommendations and handles corrections.
8888 UK helps readers compare products using published retailer information. A useful recommendation explains the choice, the evidence behind it and the limits of that evidence.
What our articles are based on
Product information comes from retailer listings, supplied specifications and manufacturer claims within those listings. The product links in each guide let you check the exact item. A retailer listing is a source, not independent proof that a performance claim is correct.
How to read a recommendation
A recommendation should identify who an item suits, the specification behind that advice, and a limitation or an important fact the listing does not supply. A lower pack price is not necessarily better value: compare quantities, sizes and the work the item is intended for.
We do not claim to have physically tested, handled or measured the products. Automated tools assist with drafting and product data. Neither an author byline nor a price-check date implies a hands-on test, specialist qualification or clinical review.
Dates and current offers
The publication and update dates refer to the article. An offer has its own checked date. We suppress offer prices when their check is more than 24 hours old; the retailer's price at checkout is the one that applies. Stock, delivery and returns terms can change, so confirm them with the retailer.
Safety and missing information
Published product claims are not a substitute for the manufacturer's instructions or evidence of suitability for a particular task. We do not infer certification or protective performance from a product's material, thickness or name. Missing details should be identified as unknown, rather than filled with a guess.
How this site is funded
