How we choose deals

CNET has a team of shopping experts and deal hunters who’ve operated across major sales events for many years, making sure you understand when a deal is worth taking advantage of and when it’s worth skipping. Whether it’s for Black Friday, Prime Day or the Fourth of July, we have the expertise to make sure you get the best deal possible.

To do this, we look for real discounts, quality reviews and remaining sale time when choosing an offer to show you.

• Real discounts mean real discounts. We look at the price history for that product to make sure no manufacturers are inflating prices to make the discount seem more substantial than it is.
• Quality reviews are equally important for any product, but particularly for deeply discounted items. If it breaks the first time you use it, the discount isn’t really worthwhile.
• Remaining sale time is a huge part of our vetting process. If a deal seems like it will only be around for a short while or will only be available for the remaining stock, we’ll let you know in advance, so you don’t return later only to be disappointed.

We are also considering the rising costs associated with tariffs to help you find items worth buying now.
