recommendable
Deserving a suggestion
Recommendable describes something worthy of being recommended—suitable to suggest to others.
The word is straightforward but uncommon; people more often say worth recommending or simply use the verb: I recommend it.
When it does appear, it's usually in formal contexts: The committee found the proposal recommendable.
