Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: April 2026

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the U.S. Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), Top Drawer Guide discloses that this website participates in affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn a commission when you click a link on our site and subsequently make a purchase on a third-party website — at no additional cost to you.

How Affiliate Links Work on This Site

All affiliate links on this site are routed through our internal redirect path (/go/product-name/) and carry rel="sponsored" and rel="nofollow" attributes. We never display raw affiliate URLs. All affiliate links are marked with † or disclosed in context.

What This Does NOT Affect

• Product ratings — these are determined solely by our standardized testing protocol
• Product rankings — determined by measured performance, not commission rate
• Editorial content — negative findings are published regardless of affiliate relationship
• Inclusion in reviews — we test products we purchase, regardless of whether an affiliate program exists

Current Affiliate Relationships

We maintain affiliate relationships with various retailers. The existence of an affiliate relationship is not a factor in whether a product is reviewed or recommended. A product without an affiliate program can appear in our recommended lists; a product with a high commission rate can receive a negative review.
