Durability and consistency are a part of the simplehuman fabric. We make sure all of our products not only pass our rigorous tests, but they pass them with flying colors. We also create tests that help us improve our future products.

We’re so nuts about product testing, we like to check out what other crazy product tests exist out there – like these:

the product:  Panasonic CF-30 “Toughbook”
the claim: “serious notebook ruggedness” – shock mounted screen, magnesium alloy case, water- and dust-resistant
the tests: tigers, elephants, firing range
the result: the laptop lost a few aesthetic keys, acquired some tiger drool, and acquired a bullet hole through the screen, but the product lived up to its name and worked after being put through the ringer.

the product: Easton Baseball Stealth Speed Bat
the claim: “the leader in baseball technology” – the lightest barrel design, faster swing speed, maximized sweet spot
the tests: ball canon test, barrel test, batting range
the result: the tests helped Easton Baseball design a unique composite bat that’s lightweight without loosing its edge, and can perform season after season without cracking.
