How this comparison was built
Before you trust any of the above, know how it was made: every price and policy above was pulled from an official source where possible, dated, and marked unconfirmed where it wasn't verifiable. We don't invent weaknesses and we don't claim hands-on testing we haven't done. One more thing you should know: PureLove is our own product — we run it daily, which is why we can speak first-hand about it and only from sources about everyone else. Full rules: editorial policy.
