Buying everyday essentials online can make grocery shopping, setting up a home office or kitting out a loved one much easier. But you need to know how to read between the lines. A large pack size can hide a less-than-ideal ingredient list, a chair packed with adjustments can turn out to be too bulky, and a 4G senior mobile phone might not tick all the boxes.
Here are the key things to check before you hit ‘buy’.
A bigger pack isn’t always better value. With a 950 g tomato sauce, look closely at the ingredients, the best-before date and how it should be stored once opened. The Buitoni base, for example, contains 57% tomato pieces and 41.8% tomato purée, and needs to be kept in the fridge for up to five days after opening.
The same goes for ready-to-eat foods. A 425 g tin of canned fish might stretch over several meals, but its net weight, sauce and salt content are worth comparing with rival products.
When it comes to an ergonomic office chair, the number of adjustments isn’t everything. You also need to check the dimensions, the product weight, the maximum load recommended by the manufacturer and the space you have around your desk. An adjustable backrest or movable armrests are only useful if they actually suit your body shape and working position.
A 4G senior mobile phone should be judged on how readable its keys are, the volume, battery life and how easy it is to charge. For a case designed for a Doro phone, exact model compatibility is essential. A cover made for a Doro L20, L30, E20, E22, E30, 2820, 2880 or 2800 shouldn’t be chosen just by looking at the phone’s silhouette.
For a tomato sauce, read the ingredient list in descending order. Also compare the nutritional values per 100 g or 100 ml, especially the salt and sugar content. The Lucien Georgelin Marmande sauce contains tomatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, olive oil and Espelette chilli. That sets it apart from a more neutral base designed to be customised in the kitchen.
For a quick meal, organic ravioli from Jardin BIO ETIC comes in a 675 g jar with a tomato and vegetable sauce. The product contains gluten and may have traces of soya, eggs, milk or mustard – so check these details carefully before buying.
When it comes to fish, don’t confuse mackerel in tomato sauce, sardinella and sardines in tins. Geisha and BTM products come in 425 g tins, while MORJON products are available in 215 g and 425 g sizes. Once opened, transfer the contents to a suitable container and keep it in the fridge, following the instructions on the label.
Before choosing a chair, measure your desk height, the available width and the usable depth. The SIHOO Doro S100 has dimensions of 78.5 × 63.5 × 124.5 cm and weighs 14.3 kg. Its spec sheet mentions an aluminium frame, a breathable mesh seat and backrest, adjustable seat depth, a five-level adjustable backrest and 4D armrests.
Any references to BIFMA, SGS, TÜV, REACH or EN 1335 compliance should be looked at in terms of what each certification actually covers. These marks don’t replace the need to read the manual, check the maximum load and understand the warranty terms.
The Doro Leva L30 is a 4G-compatible flip phone. It has an external screen to see who’s calling, widely spaced keys, a 2-megapixel camera, a 1,000 mAh battery and a charging cradle. Its GPS assistance button needs network coverage and you must set up trusted contacts in advance. So it’s not a guaranteed way to get help everywhere.
To protect the phone, the Doro phone case is listed as compatible with several models. But always check the model number on your device before ordering.

We’ve put together a full, regularly updated selection of products that meet these exacting standards as well as European safety regulations.
Compare the price per kilogram, per litre or per unit, then add any delivery charges. Also check how long the product keeps after opening, so you don’t end up throwing away part of a large pack.
It depends on how often it’s used, the weight it supports, how well it’s assembled and how it’s maintained. Check the screws, castors and adjustment mechanisms regularly. Always stick to the maximum load stated in the manual.
It will work in areas covered by the network that’s compatible with your SIM card. Before buying, check the supported bands, your provider’s coverage and the terms of use for any assistance features.
