Explore gear reviews and editor picks

Start from HomeReview as Paid member · Full workflow planned
User story
As a paid member, I want to explore gear reviews and editor selections so I can make better equipment decisions with trusted guidance.
Draft requirements for review · Updated 2026-10-19
What the app should do
- Gear collection distinguishes editorial reviews, editor selections, and clearly labeled partner offers.
- Use the active Paid member role fixture for member-only actions. A free account or a professional identity does not supply paid access. The review identity is a genuine local account; another account’s checkout state stays separate.
What to check in the demo
Follow these steps from the role’s landing page through navigation and feature checks.
Paid member
Start here: HomeBegin on the paid Member Home. Use the Paid member demo role or Casey Bennett in Try a demo account, then select Member in the account/workspace menu if necessary. This creates a genuine local session with a seeded no-charge test membership; it does not upgrade a different account.
Navigation from sign-in
- 01Open the fictional Paid member account through the connected sign-in service. Seeded Home review opens directly. Real HOL staff access and protected actions require an authenticator check.
- 02The intended path is Home → a gear collection. A dedicated gear-review collection and its navigation are not built yet.
Feature checks start here
Gear collection — planned · Full workflow planned
Follow current navigation as far as available; remaining navigation and feature checks describe the intended flow once built.
- 03Current UI review: follow the navigation as far as the explicitly available screen; the complete feature below is not built. Stop when the named control is absent.
- 04Planned acceptance — open the gear collection from Home.
- 05Planned acceptance — Compare an editorial review, an editor selection and a partner offer.
- 06Planned acceptance — Open an item and review its attribution and any sponsorship disclosure.

Before this can work
