How and why we test
Here at CHOICE we've built our reputation on the strength of our rigorous and scientific testing of goods and services.
Our testing process is what we're famous for and the key to Australians' trust in us. So, as you can imagine, we take our testing seriously.
- We have a dedicated team of testers, many of them experienced scientists.
- We pay retail price for all the items tested.
- We use a range of metrics such as price, durability and ease of use.
- Our tests are completely independent and transparent.
And although we might be famous for testing washing machines, we put more than just whitegoods under the microscope. Our team of experts tackle electronics, baby products, food products, financial services, travel insurance and much, much more.
Lab tours
Have you ever wondered how CHOICE tests hundreds of products every year?
At our unique lab facility in Marrickville, NSW, we test most of our products on site, from pushing strollers along hundreds of kilometres of rugged road to cooking up a storm in the test kitchen.
Intrigued to see just how we do it? Why not book in to come along on one of our lab tours?
Lab tours are free for CHOICE members and are held throughout the year. Tours are also available for non-members groups of up to 20 people for a fee, which covers the tour running costs.
Important update: We love that you love our member tours, but unfortunately it means they're all now full for this year. Please check back here anytime for updates.
