When will you let me know if my item will/has been reviewed?
Once I receive your item, I will email you and let you know that I received it and when your post will go up.

I will email you when the review of your item(s) is posted and provide you a permanent, twitter friendly link.

Why AkronOhioMoms.com for product reviews?
Ohio is in the heart of the USA, and Akron is in the heart of Ohio.  Therefore this review will be seen as truly representative of the ‘average’ mommy.  My reviews are in depth.  I involve my children for playtime with toys, I solicit their specific quotes and record them, and I, get this- read instructions!  Products are meant to be enjoyed and used as per manufacturer suggestions- we know that- and so we DO that for my reviews.  What else? lots of pictures are sorted through, and real life situations.  We have a lot of fun and push products to the edge.

Can we require a positive review?
Your submission is not guaranteed a super-positive review.   If your product does not meet our expectations, we will let you know OFF-blog- and your company will have the chance to work with us to determine if a review should be placed, if the customer service responded appropriately, etc.  All reviews posted here are honest and truthful.

How long will our product be highlighted?
You’ll have the top spot until the next review is posted. At times, I will post more than one review at a time.   Once your review moves from the top spot, it will scroll down the home page and sidebar. All reviews are also permanently accessible in the archives and are search-able by category.

Can the review be permanently accessible?
Of Course!  The link will be permanent.

Will my product be returned?
No products will be returned. Once something is given as a review it becomes my property. Let’s face it, this is a mommy blogger perk. Often, I will do an ongoing review and post several write ups about that item- especially high dollar items.
