It takes an army of outdoor power equipment to keep your property looking its best. But how can you be sure you're buying the best tools? That's where our army of test engineers, market analysts, and statisticians comes in.
Every year, market analysts at Consumer Reports identify hundreds of new pieces of outdoor power equipment. We deploy a team of secret shoppers to buy each model we test, to ensure we’re getting the same, unadulterated products you’ll find at retail.
