A small editorial desk that reads the manufacturers' manuals, specification sheets and support pages so that you do not have to, and says plainly who each product suits and who should look elsewhere.

Einhell GE-CM 18/33 Li vs Bosch Rotak 18V-32: two brushless 18 V mowers, two battery platforms

Two small brushless cordless mowers with a 4.0 Ah battery in the box, the same five heights from 25 to 65 mm and almost the same width. Einhell's cuts 33 cm, says 200 square metres and has a 30 litre box with a fill indicator. Bosch's cuts 32 cm, has a 35 litre bag and a mulch plug, and leaves area and weight to retailers. The decision is mostly which battery your shed already runs on.

eufy Smart Scale P3 review: Wi-Fi sync, 16 readings and 50 gram steps, and what a plain platform can measure

A smart scale that syncs over Wi-Fi as well as Bluetooth, so readings arrive with the phone elsewhere: 16 measurements including heart rate, 50 g steps up to 200 kg, a display where you choose the first reading, and four AAA cells for three or four months. This review is about what Wi-Fi changes, what 16 readings from the feet can tell you, and the weight figure eufy and the listing disagree on.

PetSafe Drinkwell 7.5 litre fountain review: two and a half times the water, and the space it takes

The biggest fountain on our shortlist: 7.5 litres in a long, low plastic bowl with a free-falling stream whose flow is set by a knob from near-silent to full, foam and carbon filters, a mains pump and a body that goes in the dishwasher. This review is about who needs that much water, what the adjustable stream changes for a nervous cat, how much floor it takes, and what the filters ask of you.

Kärcher K 2 Classic review: the smallest Kärcher, 110 bar in 3.4 kg, and the jobs it is the right size for

Kärcher's entry pressure washer: 110 bar, 360 litres an hour and 20 square metres an hour from a 1.4 kW air-cooled motor, a spray lance and a Dirt Blaster, a 3 m hose and 3.4 kg without accessories. This review is about what 110 bar cleans and what it does not, the difference the Dirt Blaster makes, what the short hose means in practice, and when the step up to a K 4 is worth taking.

Sunny Smart Folding X-Bike vs Yosuda EB4: two folding bikes with bands, on levels, rider weight and floor space

Two folding X-frame bikes that add resistance bands for the arms. Sunny's has 14 magnetic levels, a mesh backrest, Bluetooth to its own app and transport wheels, with the maker's page behind most of it. Yosuda's lists 16 levels, a 172 kg rider limit and the smallest footprint in use, with most of its figures on the listing only. The decision is room, rider and how much a checkable figure matters.

Garmin Dash Cam Mini 3 review: the camera you cannot see from outside, and the evidence it leaves out

Garmin's smallest dash cam: 1080p at 30 frames with Clarity HDR through a 140-degree lens with a polariser built in, voice control, incident detection and Wi-Fi to the phone, in a body that hides behind the mirror. No screen, no GPS. This review is about what the size buys, what missing GPS means for a claim, how the supercapacitor copes with a hot windscreen, and what parking cover costs.

Philips Sonicare DiamondClean 9000 review: four modes, a charging case and the app, and who needs them

Philips' upper-middle sonic brush: 62,000 movements a minute, four modes at three intensities, a pressure light at the base, BrushSync head recognition, Bluetooth to the Sonicare app, and a travel case that charges the brush from USB. This review is about what twelve settings are for, what the light and the app tell you, why the battery is shorter than the 5300's, and what the case changes.

PetSafe Simply Feed vs Petlibro Air: two dry-food feeders with no app, on meals, portions and power

Two hopper feeders programmed on the unit, with no Wi-Fi and nothing to pair. PetSafe's Simply Feed holds 24 cups, serves up to 12 meals a day from a tablespoon to nearly a litre and can slow a gulper down. Petlibro's Air holds 2 litres, serves six meals and stands 19 cm square. The decision is the size of the animal, how many meals it needs, and how you want to power it.

Lumie Bodyclock Rise 100 review: the simplest Bodyclock, its fixed half-hour dawn and what you give up

The entry Bodyclock: a 30-minute dawn through red, orange and warm white LEDs, the same 30 minutes as a sunset at night, a beep you can switch off, a tap-top snooze, a nightlight, and Lumie's three-year warranty, in the same dome as the Glow 150. This review is about what a fixed 30 minutes means, what the missing sounds and radio cost, and who should buy the Glow or the Shine.

Gtech CLM50 review: the 42 cm cordless mower, its 50 litre bin and the forty minutes Gtech promises

The widest mower on our cordless shortlist: a 42 cm cut, a 50 litre bin with a fill flap, ten heights from 30 to 80 mm and a 48 V battery that Gtech rates for up to 40 minutes and recharges in an hour. This review is about what the extra width saves, why Gtech quotes minutes rather than square metres, what 13.5 kg means at the back step, and the battery nothing else in the shed will use.

Salter Digital Analyser (grey) vs Matte Black Analyser: two body-fat scales with no app, and the feature between them

Two Salter analyser scales for people who want body-fat readings without an account, a phone or Wi-Fi. Both weigh to 180 kg, give the same seven measurements and remember eight or nine people. The grey one publishes 100 g steps and a backlit display; the matte black one adds an athlete mode and frosted glass. The decision is who in the house trains, and whether a number on the glass is enough.

Nextbase 622GW review: 4K, stabilisation and what3words, and what the flagship asks you to add

Nextbase's top front camera: 4K at 30 frames, 1440p at 60 and 1080p at 120 through a 140-degree f/1.3 lens with a polarising filter built in, a 3-inch touchscreen, 10 Hz GPS with what3words, Emergency SOS and Alexa. This review is about which recording mode to use, what the stabilisation costs, what the rear module adds, and the memory card question Nextbase leaves to retailers.

How we choose

Every model we name is a specific, current product with a real listing. Its figures come from the manufacturer's own documents and are cited beneath each article; where a maker publishes two numbers, we say so. We do not run lab tests, we do not quote prices, and we never invent awards or reviews.
