Ask HN: What are some good review sites?
4 points by rmm on Jan 10, 2022 | hide | past | favorite | 4 comments
Searching for product reviews on Google is a dumpster fire.

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.

So what are everyones favorites?



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


You mean sites like this one https://www.oekotest.de/? 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.

If you want free, you get an SEO-infested, SEO-riddled dumpster fire.

Totally up to you.
