Welcome to theStrategist, a site for helping you shop the internet. It is written by journalists (not robots) and is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Our goal first and foremost is to help you find the best version of whatever it is you are looking to buy, while introducing you to the stuff (a Japanese nail clipper that cuts with the precision of a Santoku knife, for instance) that you didn’t know you needed. We’lltest things ourselves; we’ll call up 40 interior designers to findthe best-looking, most comfortable couch under $2,000; we’ll investigatehow a certain coatfrom a certain retailer became a nationwide phenomenon; we’ll writeodes to productsthat we’d happily do an infomercial for; and we’ll ask Anwar Hadid about his favoritehand soap. To give you a taste of what we do, here are some tech gadgets and electronics we’ve written about.
