At UpToDateHome™, we take pride in offering genuine recommendations for products that meet high sustainability and lifestyle standards. Our team of editors carefully researches and tests each product featured in our guides. This ensures that they align with our commitment to eco-friendly practices. We have tested thousands of products from sustainable brands. We firmly believe that the best products are the ones that people will actually use and gain from.

Our review process is comprehensive. It involves a combination of hands-on testing. We also incorporate expert insights. Finally, we conduct a thorough examination of third-party certifications and standards. These include organizations like the Fashion Transparency Index, Fair Trade, B Corp, Leaping Bunny, and USDA Organic, among others. Additionally, we offer personal tips on how to select and care for the products we recommend. These tips give you valuable insights on how to maximize their longevity and effectiveness.

Our Business Model

We are an independent media brand, and our operations are primarily funded by our readers through affiliate links. A reader click on a link from our site and make a buy from one of our affiliate partners. When this happens, we earn a commission. Yet, if the product is returned, the commission is also rescinded. Our editorial integrity is paramount; we never promote products based on requests from affiliate partners or any potential future partnerships. Our endorsements are based solely on the belief that these products will be genuinely useful and appreciated by our readers.
