Here's the thing about sloths: they move at about 0.15 miles per hour. They sleep up to 15 hours a day. They will not be rushed.

But sloths are also incredibly deliberate. Every move they make is efficient, necessary, and considered. If a sloth is going somewhere, it's going somewhere good. That's basically our whole editorial philosophy.

Why a sloth?

We got tired of "top 10" lists clearly written in twenty minutes by someone who never read past the first review. So we decided to be the opposite: slow, thorough, and mildly suspicious of anything claiming to be "revolutionary."

What we actually do

Every pick is checked against reviews and testing data from sources that actually put products through the wringer. We take our time before telling you what's worth buying.

Who writes this

Jordan Ellison, founding editor, shopping sloth. Jordan started Shopping Sloth after one too many "best of" roundups that read like nobody had spent more than twenty minutes on them. Every pick here starts from real reviews, testing writeups, and return-rate data, gets cross-checked before it's trusted, and only makes the list once the cheap-looking option turns out to actually be cheap and not just cheap-looking.
