PLEASE NOTE:
We designate items that we highly recommend as "Essential Picks". This is done after careful consideration, based on our opinion and customer feedback. However, please note that there are many, many more "Essential" items on our website that have not yet been designated as "Essential Picks". This is an ongoing process, and we will continue the arduous process of attempting to designate all highly recommended items as "Essential Picks". So, there will always be many items on our website that are "Essential" even though they have not yet been designated as such. Your input is always welcome!
