Ask HN: What are some good review sites?

4 pointsby rmmover 3 years ago

Searching for product reviews on Google is a dumpster fire.<p>I want to build a bit of a whitelist of trusted, non-SEO'd, review sites for everything. Be it tech, kitchen appliances, or baby monitors.<p>So what are everyones favorites?

Personally I look at <a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/" rel="nofollow">https://www.reddit.com/r/BuyItForLife/</a>, and then data backed sites like <a href="https://appliance.report/" rel="nofollow">https://appliance.report/</a> and i try to find small, geeky blogs from people who clearly love the subject matter

You mean sites like this one <a href="https://www.oekotest.de/" rel="nofollow">https://www.oekotest.de/</a>? Test results are not free.

I actually find reddit to be decent for reviews of customer products. So I add a "site: reddit.com" to my search string.

If you want to pay, Consumer Reports.<p>If you want free, you get an SEO-infested, SEO-riddled dumpster fire.<p>Totally up to you.
