Who Are We?

We are regular people who love the outdoors and value family, just like you!

At one point in the not too distant past, we were a 5 generation family, ranging from 1 to 99+.  The breadth of products we consume as a generational family who loves the outdoors is vast - from freshwater gear and sports equipment to pet supplies to housewares and personal care.

We'd like you to think of us as your 'neighbor next door' who is recommending family friendly products to you.

What Does the FAV Reviews Team Do?

We find the best family-friendly products and share our product research, reviews and "favs" to help outdoorsy families who want to live healthy lifestyles to make more efficient, quality and risk-free buying decisions online.

Our mission is to help families to make better purchases online.  

Every single day, we strive to do more and create a positive impact in our world. To accomplish that objective, it requires us to rethink what companies and industries can become. We want our company's success to serve as an example of how businesses can be profitable while also doing good—all without charging a premium for such services. It takes creative thinking, empathy, and innovation in order for this goal come true!


Every idea starts with a problem. Ours was simple: Finding quality products online is too time consuming and can be risky!  Quality Reviews Help.


How Do We Do That?

Navigating our day-to-day, we stumble upon a treasure trove of tools, products, and resources. And guess what? Some are so mind-blowingly awesome, we can't help but shout about them from the digital rooftops!

We're all about hunting down those game-changing health and outdoorsy goodies that deserve the limelight! We dive into reviews, picking the brains of our fellow adventurers to see if it's got the 'wow' factor.  No item is too small or too big - if it gets our heart racing, we'll be singing its praises from the digital rooftops! (Or at least, sharing it with our online buddies.) 😉

Why We Do What We Do

Our founder's daughters have grown up in the online world.  In the '80's a newspaper article was written about them being the "Net Generation" ...  Fast forward to today, they both have very busy, sports crazy families who love the outdoors and living healthy lifestyles.  The are in the consumption stage of their lives.  Online purchases are nearly a daily occurrence in their families, from recreational and sports gear, to personal and household products to groceries.   Any way we can help this generation to get to the quality products they are looking for faster, is a bonus.

And then, there is the generation before our founder ... In their mid-eighties ... using iPads, Facebook and Zoom to stay in touch with their family and friends. Shopping online is new to this generation and can be risky.  Fearful of being taken advantage of online, they need to have a company and buying solutions online that they can trust.

We want to become your 'FAV' site for family friendly products, deals and more.  Because, you have better things to do with your family ... and we're doing the research for you.
