Running a website takes a lot of time, effort, and money. As a result we have monetized kitchenratings.com in several ways to try to pay the expenses associated with this site. This mainly includes advertisements and affiliate links, but other methods could be used. Read on for more details.
Ads are displayed on this website. They help us pay the bills and can provide readers with something useful to learn about or buy. We won’t ask you directly to click on an Ad, but if you see something you like and decide you want to check it out we stand to gain monetarily from that.
We are affiliated with Amazon. Some of the links on this website are affiliate links and when clicked could lead to us receiving financial compensation if something is purchased. We may include links on this site for other affiliate programs as well. Whenever there is an affiliate link we will do our best to make it clear that it is an affiliate link. If you find a link that isn’t clearly labeled as an affiliate, please let us know.
Readers who join our email list will receive a regular message in their inbox from Kitchen Ratings. We don’t outsource our messages. We don’t sell anyone’s email address.
The email addresses we receive are securely stored on our mail service system. We don’t control their systems, but we trust that they are making every effort to keep your information and our information secure.
We don’t spam. In fact, we hate spam (the email kind of spam, not the canned meat spam, there are some yummy Hawaiian recipes with canned spam). The emails we send may include links to product reviews (see products and reviews section below for details). We might also include links to resources we find helpful.
The bottom line about signing up for our email list is we want to be helpful. If you sign up for our list, in order to receive messages you have to click the opt-in link that is initially sent after signing up.

We love food! We also love all the kitchen gadgets that help us prep our food in a faster, better, or more interesting way. The products we share on this site are those we’ve actually used and tested out personally.
We buy all of the products we test. We do not receive compensation from product manufacturers directly. Basically, a big company is not paying us to write a review. We are providing our unbiased personal opinions in each review. If you represent a company and want us to review your product, let us know about it and we’ll take a look. If it looks like something we can buy and try out for ourselves, we might write a review about it.
Most of the time we really love the products we review and are excited to tell other people about them so they can benefit from them as well. Sometimes a product isn’t so great, but since we’ve spent so much time with it we want to be transparent and share what we’ve learned from using it.
If we don’t have glowing reviews about a product, our statements are 100% our opinions and not meant to harm the company that produces the reviewed products. If you are a representative of a company that manufactures a product that we reviewed and have a comment or concern, please reach out to us so we can have a friendly dialogue.
We hope you find our reviews helpful. They take a lot of research, testing, and time to create.
If we did not explicitly mention something specific above, our general approach is to be as helpful as possible, but also provide some means to generate revenue so we can be compensated for our work (because it is a ton of work running a website, but we love doing it!).
