About the Award
What is an Editor’s Choice Award?
This award signifies the best values in each product cate-
gory, as determined independently by our expert editori-
al staff.
How often are awards given?
Our Editor’s Choice ratings are awarded once per year
with each updated guide.
What are the selection criteria?
In each Better Buys guide, we evaluate models from all
major manufacturers. Machines are rigorously analyzed
to determine (1) the strength of their features and specifi-
cations and (2) how they stack up against competitors.
Our independent Editor’s Choice Awards go to those
models that we believe will deliver the highest levels of
performance and offer the greatest value for consumers in
a given price range.
What categories are judged?
There are four awards categories: economy models,
workgroup models/letter-size (priced under $1,000),
workgroup models/letter-size (priced over $1,000), and
workgroup models/ledger-size.
Where can I find information about each
brand and model?
