Since we launched a year ago, we've run, hiked, camped and swum; we've drunk 455 cups of coffee; washed 34 loads of clothes; slept on mattresses for 2,240 hours, and much more, testing a total of 2,040 products from coffee machines to gin to bring you the most rigorous, informed and entertaining buying advice. We've even had a decent stab at identifying the preferred lipstick of a global icon.
