About Canadians Best

Originally this started as our own little side-hobby, we enjoyed reviewing and testing our own equipment, in our own broad array of hobbies. This was mostly due to it being fun, but our team member Edward especially, this stems from his days as a quality tester in the early stages of his career. So he's used to a professional process of reviewing products, especially before considering buying. What became apparent, very quickly, was there was no real service or help for the average consumer in Canada for when they’re traversing 148 different models of vacuum cleaner, how on earth would you ever know? Also 90% of websites were actually made for USA markets and we were just meant to 'make do'. We wanted something just for us.

Let’s Crunch Some Numbers

More importantly, and the bigger drive for us making this site, is that according to an international census, we spend around 10 hours shopping a month. That is actually up from 2003 whereby it was 8 hours. It’s no coincidence that the huge growth in online shopping has spawned a huge amount of new brands and product choices, thus increasing our online/shopping time. If you look at that over a 10 year period for example, you’re looking at 50 days, 50 days! Just let that sink in, and that’s just an average. Nobody wants to spend 2 months per decade on just shopping, when it’s not necessary, what if you had someone you could trust to point you in the right direction? Shaving weeks off that 50 day period. Well this is basically our goal and the purpose of our site, to provide in-depth and thorough product reviews for online shoppers, vastly reducing their screen time.

So How Do You Do It?

So as mentioned before, we now have numerous experience as quality checkers, product testers and product researchers, in the Canadian market. Edward also has extensive knowledge in training new recruits on how to analyse and critique detail, problem sourcing, comparative action etc. We formed a team of competent and like-minded souls, with a voice you can trust. We got to work making an ‘Canadians Best Product Review Team’ to service the website. We like to put the commercial advertisements to the test and see if its really all its hyped up to be, and deliver some informative and actionable content for our readers. A lot of cross referencing details between similar products, brands and entities will be done. Testing, material consensus and price comparisons to convey value. We’ll do the preliminary and post checks to ensure a solid review for our readers. Moving forward, we plan to keep reviewing as much as possible, a lot of the team have families and jobs, but together we will make this a success and strive to create informative pieces that can stand the test of time. New products and tech are being released more than ever before, and you’re going to need that friendly voice that you can trust on. So we hope to offer some support in making the right purchases, and to stop the big companies prising open your wallets and purses, our aim is to be that barrier.
