Terms of use

By using Coupe & Cube you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site. They apply to everyone who reads it, and they are written to be read rather than to be impenetrable.

Coupe & Cube is published by The First Buyer. Questions about these terms go to contact@coupeandcube.com.

This site publishes editorial opinion and general information about barware. It is not professional advice of any kind, and nothing here is a guarantee that a product will suit you.

We do not run a test lab and we have not personally used every product covered. Recommendations rest on published specifications, on materials and construction, and on what owners report - and every commercial page states this explicitly in its What we could not verify section. How we pick sets out the method in full.

Specifications quoted are as published by the manufacturer at the time of writing and may change without notice. Always check the current listing before buying, particularly for dimensions that have to fit something you own.

This site earns affiliate commission on purchases made through its links, at no additional cost to you. Links are marked, and the arrangement is described in full on affiliate disclosure.

We are not the retailer. We do not sell anything, do not process payments, do not hold stock and cannot help with an order, a delivery, a return or a warranty claim. Those are between you and the retailer under their terms.

Prices, availability and specifications are set by the retailer and change constantly. That is precisely why no prices appear on this site.

This site links out to retailers, manufacturers and other publications. Those sites are not under our control and we are not responsible for their content, their accuracy, their availability or their privacy practices.

A link is not an endorsement of everything on the site at the other end of it. When we cite a source we are citing the specific thing we read.

The written content, structure and design of this site are the property of The First Buyer unless stated otherwise. You are welcome to quote briefly with attribution and a link.

You may not republish substantial portions, scrape the site for the purpose of reproducing its content elsewhere, or use it to train a system that reproduces it, without written permission.

Product names, brand names and trademarks belong to their owners and are used here for identification and editorial comment only. Photography is licensed stock unless otherwise credited; credits are kept with the site's source.

This site is provided as it is. To the fullest extent permitted by law we make no warranties about its accuracy, completeness or fitness for any particular purpose, and we are not liable for any loss arising from your use of it or from any purchase you make after reading it.

Some of what is described here involves things that can hurt you if handled carelessly - butane torches, flame near high-proof spirits, glassware, and heavy furniture. Follow the manufacturer's instructions for any product you own, and use your own judgment.

Nothing here is an invitation to anyone under the legal drinking age in their jurisdiction. Drink responsibly.

We may update these terms. Material changes are reflected in the date at the top of this page, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
