Rxthe prescription

One perfect product — not a list of 50.

Other product sites hand you a top-10 list and call it helpful. We hand you the one. If we can't pick one, we ask one question, then we pick one.

Lists are a lazy abdication

A "top 10 best X" article is the writer saying "I couldn't pick — you do it." That's not helpful. That's the work, handed back.

How we pick one

We anchor on the best-in-class product for the most common configuration. We adjust based on your tier signal (premium, starter, budget) and your constraints (counter width, room size, ecosystem). Then we name the pick.

When we'd ask you to break the tie

If two products are genuinely equivalent and the only difference is a personal preference (color, brand loyalty, eco-system), we ask one question. Then we pick.
