Hi TheBBG,
we employ a team of market researchers. Depending on the product type, we might decide to attempt to cover the entire market and buy all models that are readily available around Australia. We also check whether the products will still be available to buy at the time our review will be published.
For other product types, where we can’t afford to cover the entire range of models available, we will buy a representative sample of products that we predict will be of most interest to our members.
Where a new product appears that is particularly novel or generating a lot of interest, we’ll sometimes do a First Look rather than a full comparative test.
The specifics are a little more complex, but that is a high level overview of the process.
