Investigating Cigarettes for Research Purposes: Consumer Reports’ Approach

Research cigarettes
are similar to those that you can purchase in a store,
designed to burn and produce a similar amount of smoke
compared to normal cigarettes.
While cigarettes change their ingredients or formulas over time,
these cigarettes are used to ensure consistency in research.
At Consumer Reports, we use about 80 to 100 per year.
We use two cigarettes for each air purifier we test,
and there are over 150 air purifiers in our latest ratings.
