Hi, I’m Sarah Mitchell, and I started ProofPicked after years of frustration with product reviews that turned out to be paid promotions in disguise.
After wasting hundreds of dollars on products that didn’t live up to their marketing hype, I decided to create the review site I wished existed: one where every product is actually tested, every claim is verified, and every recommendation comes from genuine experience.
Our Mission: To provide honest, experience-based reviews that help you make informed purchasing decisions without falling for marketing tricks or fake reviews.
Our Values
We only review products we’ve personally tested for weeks or months. No quick first impressions or sponsored content disguised as reviews.
Clear disclosure of affiliate relationships. We make money when you buy through our links, and we’re upfront about it.
Long-term testing reveals what short reviews miss. We track how products perform over time, not just on day one.
Real experiences from real people. We value your feedback and incorporate reader experiences into our ongoing reviews.
Why Trust ProofPicked?
Unlike many review sites that accept free products in exchange for positive reviews, we purchase every item we test with our own money. This keeps us unbiased and focused on your needs, not brand relationships.
Yes, we use affiliate links and earn commissions when you buy through them. But we only recommend products we genuinely believe in after thorough, long-term testing. Our reputation depends on your trust, not quick commissions.
Every review includes both pros and cons, real photos and videos from our testing, and honest assessments of who the product is (and isn’t) right for. If something doesn’t work as advertised, we say so.
