9,046 readers judged 20,424 real rooms. The most common complaint was not “dated” or “busy”. It was cold. 172 design elements ranked from cosiest to coldest.

3,134 house exteriors, 1.17 million views and 2,522 poll answers: which walkways, porches, roofs, siding and styles readers reward, compared fairly.

6,559 dislike reasons and 5,801 like reasons from 2,428 readers, each linked to the features of the room it was given for. “Too cold” beats “looks dated”.

40 kitchen polls, 5,427 answers and 497,000 photo views: the spec sheet homeowners describe, and whether it matches the kitchens they actually save.

831 tagged bathrooms and 290,720 views: grey tile, the tile colours readers actually reject, and every other bathroom feature, measured fairly.

644,180 views of 4,232 living rooms: wood coffee tables index 114.9, glass 40.3, and the finding held on 16 days of new data.

1,503 outfits, 5,906 reactions and 4,816 poll answers: the wool coat is the coat readers would buy, camel beats grey three to one, and the puffer barely gets a vote.

7,056 outfits and 2,563 accessories scored by style: minimalist outfits get 44% loves against a 59% average, boho quietly wins, and edgy is the weakest style of all.

7,056 outfits and about 4 million views: burgundy is the only main colour that stays clearly above average once each outfit is compared fairly. White loses. Plus the best pairings and prints.

79,093 reader signals and 102 garment variables scored: the necklines, sleeves, hems, fabrics and shoes that make an outfit read as frumpy, and the fixes.

35,130 loves and thumbs-downs on 4,941 outfits: why oversized is the only silhouette readers boo more than they cheer, and why wrap wins.
