About PickIreland

PickIreland exists because buying decisions in Ireland are different: our electricity is among Europe's priciest, our weather is wet, our houses are damp, our e-scooter laws are specific, and most "best of" lists online are written for the UK or US market.

Every guide on this site compares five products per use-case with Irish running costs, Irish rules and Irish weather factored in. We keep guides updated as prices and models change.

Who writes PickIreland

André Pires — Founder & Editor. André Pires founded PickIreland to cut through the noise of online shopping for Irish homes. Every guide compares products on Irish prices, running costs on Irish electricity, local weather and Irish rules — so readers can pick the right product without opening 40 tabs.

How we research

For each guide we shortlist five products per use-case, then compare them on manufacturer specifications, verified owner feedback, running costs at current Irish electricity rates, and suitability for Irish conditions and rules. We update prices and picks as models change. We may earn an affiliate commission when you buy through our links, at no extra cost to you — this never changes our rankings.
