How we rigorously review products at the Good Housekeeping Institute
We test it, so you can trust it
Apr 16, 2025
Tried. Tested. Trusted.
The Good Housekeeping Institute is the beating heart of our brand, where everything from slow cookers to sports bras is poked, prodded and put through its paces by our experts and reader panel.
We go to extreme lengths to ensure you can trust our product recommendations, whether it's putting walking jackets in the shower to test water-resistance claims or dropping suitcases 52 times to check their durability. We know the details matter. That's what keeps your life running smoothly. Getting it right is just good housekeeping.
Who we are
The GHI team is made up of editors, engineers, cosmetic scientists, food developers, chemists and personal trainers. Every recommendation we make is back by years of experience.
