Resolve the identity
Brand, exact model code, stable identifiers and regional variants are kept together. Near-matches are not silently merged.

How ApplianceBench works
Evidence first. Calculations shown. Gaps left visible.
ApplianceBench is a decision platform built on Atlas product and regulatory data. It does not describe database evidence as hands-on testing.
ABIndependent methodologyVersion 1.0 / 2026
Normalise the evidence
Units and fields are made comparable while preserving the original source, regime, retrieval date and missing values.
Calculate practical meaning
Annual energy is converted with a visible electricity rate. Fit checks separate body size from installation clearance.
Keep commerce separate
Affiliate offers can help people buy, but do not make a page indexable, change a recommendation or overwrite official evidence.
Current launch evidence
Authoritative records, bounded use
EPREL
European energy label records surfaced through the Atlas bounded, value-added catalogue. Official records remain linked.
ENERGY STAR
US government certification data supplies product identity, annual kWh and performance context where present.
Retail partners
Exact-match availability and prices are dated. Some links may be affiliate; that relationship is disclosed next to offers.
Publication rule
A record is not automatically a page.
- Stable, exact identity and unique canonical path
- Useful normalised specifications and clear provenance
- At least one value-add: cost, fit, safety or comparison
- No unresolved duplicates, licensing or image-rights issue
- Affiliate availability is never a quality gate
