Transparency is Important to Us
SizzleServe participates in various affiliate marketing programs. This means we may earn commissions on purchases made through our links to retailer sites. These commissions help support our work in providing unbiased outdoor kitchen reviews and guides.
1. How Affiliate Links Work
When you click on a product link on our site and make a purchase, we may receive a commission from the retailer at no additional cost to you. This commission is typically a small percentage of the sale price.
2. Our Commitment to Unbiased Reviews
Despite participating in affiliate programs:
- We do not let affiliate relationships influence our reviews. Products receive positive or negative reviews based on their merits, not potential commissions.
- We prioritize recommending the best products for your outdoor kitchen needs, regardless of commission rates.
- We clearly mark affiliate links throughout our content (typically with a note like “We may earn a commission”).
- We maintain editorial independence. No retailer or manufacturer pays for positive reviews or placement.
3. Affiliate Programs We Participate In
We are participants in the following affiliate programs (this list may change):
- Amazon Associates Program
- Home Depot Affiliate Program
- Lowe’s Affiliate Program
- Wayfair Partner Program
- Other outdoor living and kitchen specialty retailers
4. Price and Availability
Product prices and availability are accurate as of the date/time indicated on our reviews and are subject to change. Any price and availability information displayed on retailer sites at the time of purchase will apply to your purchase.
5. No Additional Cost to You
When you make a purchase through our affiliate links, you pay exactly the same price as you would if you went directly to the retailer’s website. The commission comes from the retailer’s marketing budget, not from your pocket.
6. Testing and Research Process
Our review process involves:
- Extensive research on product specifications and features
- Analysis of user reviews and expert opinions
- Comparison of similar products in the same category
- Evaluation based on durability, value, weather-resistance, and user experience
- Regular updates to ensure information remains current
7. Your Support Matters

- Maintaining and improving our website
- Researching and testing more products
- Creating comprehensive guides and resources
- Providing free content to help homeowners with their outdoor kitchen projects
We appreciate your support, whether through using our links or simply finding our content helpful.
