At Toprvgear.com, our goal is to help readers live as comfortably as possible while living their dream by offering helpful information and product recommendations.
Part of how we do that is recommending gear, places to explore, places to stay and more. Below, you can find more information on our editorial process, including how we pick products and places, and how we may be compensated through our content.
Editorial Process
Our main goal as a content-driven platform is to find the best solutions for our readers. That may be finding the best places to hike or camp in a state or park, or it may be recommending some of the best gear related to those activities.
In any case, we’re committed to useful, accurate and practical information above all else. Solving our readers’ problems and challenges is our top priority, and we firmly believe that if we do that the right way, everything else will fall into place. We do our best to keep our stories updated with links to brands, parks and government sites that provide additional info.
In the case of camping stories, we strive to find writers who’ve personally explored these areas and can portray an accurate description of the park. Each story we publish has hours of research, writing, fact-checking and editing behind it.
For gear reviews, we try to find writers who have some experience with the types of products being reviewed, and in many cases we personally field test the products being recommended.
The information is provided by toprvgear.com and while we strive to keep the information up to date and correct, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability or availability with respect to the website or the information, products, services, or related graphics contained on the website for any purpose. Any reliance you place on such information is therefore strictly at your own risk.
We pride ourselves on our research and commitment to putting out the best possible information for our readers, and welcome suggestions on how to do that better through the comments section or email.
Affiliate Links & Recommendations
In many of our articles, especially gear-based stories, we may earn a small commission when readers purchase products through our links.
This doesn’t affect which products are included in the articles, and in most cases our writers are not aware of which brands and products offer us a sales commission. All of the products we highlight are recommended for their quality, performance and overall reputation regardless of any affiliate relationships. They are some of the best products out there and so we recommend them.
The commissions we make from these articles allow us to pay our writers the best rates possible, and to allow us to put as much time and energy into the research and vetting side of the review process. We don’t want to cut corners, and we want to pay writers and gear testers what they’re worth.
If we receive gear to review directly from brands, it’s noted in the review itself, though most of the gear we field test is purchased. Any brands or products that pay for promotion or advertising on the site is considered “Sponsored.”
Amazon Associates & Other Programs
As an Amazon Associate, Toprvgear.com may earn commissions from qualifying purchases from Amazon.com. We also partner with sites like REI, YETI, Campingworld and other outdoor product retailers.
Our reputation as a place to find quality gear and places to explore is important to us, and that helps us navigate what we recommend to our readers. You can reach us or learn more about our mission at Toprvgear.com.
