Affiliate Disclosure
Full transparency about how we earn money and why it doesn't compromise our recommendations.
tl;dr
BenchLoot earns affiliate commissions when you buy through our links. Your price doesn't change. This doesn't influence our recommendations—we recommend gear based on quality and value, never on commission rates.
How We Earn
BenchLoot earns small affiliate commissions from the following retailers:
Amazon Associates
Standard commission on tools and gear.
Rockler Woodworking
Specialty woodworking retailer.
Woodcraft
Premium woodworking supplies.
When you click one of our links and make a purchase, we earn a small commission. Your price stays exactly the same—the retailer pays us from their margin.
Does This Affect Our Recommendations?
No. We recommend gear based on:
What We Don't Do:
- ×Recommend products just because they have affiliate links
- ×Hide products because they don't pay commissions
- ×Rank tools by commission rates instead of quality
- ×Write fake reviews to inflate affiliate earnings
