Consumer Reports for Positive User Reviews
✓ Go-To App Before Any Big PurchaseConsumer Reports is my go-to service before any major purchase — and sometimes minor purchases. I have used it for well over ten years to help understand a product before buying it. They are independent in their product reviews (they are not sponsored or receive free goods in exchange for a review) and have I found that they are usually spot on in their assessments. The app itself has less information than their website but for a quick check to get your research started it is an excellent resource. I highly recommend a subscription as it helps you understand pros/cons of a product and in the end save you time and most importantly money..Version: 3.9
✓ I Love Consumer ReportsI subscribe to CR, and love the app. It makes comparison shopping easy, I have used it to to make intelligent purchases with unbiased reviews. I also highly recommend the buying guides, they make it easy to learn about products before you buy. I also use it to guide my family when they are deciding, everything from cars to toaster ovens! Love it, keep on being awesome Consumer Reports!.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Useful InformationI sell appliances and Consumer Reports is a great way to show my customers some tangible information and ratings of the best buys. Thank you.Version: 3.8.1
✓ Go To SourceThis is my prime source of info before I order anything. Well worth the cost of subscription..Version: 3.7.6
✓ Information Right at your fingertips!Who knew that this app held more information than you ever thought you needed. Really simple to use, and being a member is very affordable with multiple options. If you are like most of us and you want to get the best product that you can afford, this app helps to figure out the choices and options you have. Wonderful app. Thank you for your decades of service Consumer Reports!.Version: 3.0
✓ Way too expensive for my needs.Would like to be able to access this once in a blue moon. Might subscribe for $10/yr but not $10/month. I guess if you buy a lot of items it would be worth it. I’m just going to find someone who subscribes to the Magazine & borrow it. App looks great though..Version: 3.7.2
✓ I use it for everythingThere are lots of products on the market, claiming to be the best… it’s important to do your research, and it only takes a minute with the app… from blenders to sound bars.. and recently my pillow It’s worth every penny.Version: 4.0.1
✓ Right Unbiased/Non-Sponsored InformationLooking for a dishwasher and the information found on CR is incredible. It (the info) provides you with the peace-of-mind that you are making the correct buying decision. No more guess work, no more “trusting” the sales person or even word of mouth. The data doesn’t lie! The best part is we actually went with a cheaper better performing model so we saved money and being that the dishwasher is energy and water efficient it will continue saving us money every month on our utilities. Impressed! Not sure I will make a buying decision without consulting the data contains herein at CR!.Version: 3.0.1
✓ Canadian productsGreat advice but Many of your links to Canadian websites bring us to the US sites and the cost is sadly never Canadian. Sometimes the product is not even available in Canada..Version: 3.7.1
✓ The ONLY reviews I read before I buy.Many don’t know that CR is only review company that is not at all funded by advertising and some don’t know how important this is to seeing reviews that are honest, accurate and produced for-the-consumer. In most cases, reviews are a form of advertising and not to be trusted. The CR app is a way to quickly check via category or brand before you pluck down that contactless “plastic.” I never buy electronics or any big investment product without checking with CR first..Version: 3.7.7
✓ Independent Reviews & Expert AdviceConsumer reports is my go to for Independent Reviews & Expert Advice with articles which inform on factors worth considering before making a purchase..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Don’t buy until you CR the productAny major purchase I make is first checked with consumer reports. Just because something is on sale won’t mean it’s worth getting. CR tests products and provides accurate assessments of the pros and cons. While you may not be able to afford their highest rated product, you will be confident you’re getting the best item in your price range. Used it for dishwashers, fridges, washer dryers, vacuum's, oven ranges, power tools, BBQ, TVs and currently I’m evaluating a generator for backup power. They’re subscription is worth every penny. I check rankings here first and then search for stores and deals. I started using them from NZ, then here in the USA.Version: 3.7.6
✓ BlendersUsing the phone app Looking for ratings. All I get is individual Blenders..Version: 2.5
✓ DéçuNe répond pas aux normes du iPad quand à s’ajuster à la grandeur de l’affichage ....Version: 3.6.10
✓ ReviewsDon’t like being locked in to a review after giving star rating.Version: 3.7.1
✓ Great Ideas for 50+ yearsI’ve trusted Consumers for almost 50 years and they’ve never steered me wrong! Unless the manufacturer changed something after CR tests it I’ve always been happy with appliances to TVs, to cars based on their recommendations. (One dishwasher changed to a “heatproof” plastic inside tub. It melted.) Their reports asks and answers the same questions I have and would be asking sales people, but with a lot more truth! And Having a price range let’s me know if the prices given in the store are high or low. The magazine covers many different topics, from big appliances, to cars, to Internet safety. And I always get a laugh at “selling lt.” on the last page, for some of the truly crazy things people do while selling something! I’ll be a CR subscriber for as long as I can!.Version: 4.2
✓ Best advice you can getI am a long-time member of CU going back to the print-only days. We consult their advice before making any important purchase. They have never let us down. My only wish is that the Canadian content would be restored..Version: 3.7.2
✓ Consumer ReportsI have used CR since I was in college in the 1960’s. I take the magazine as well as on line and I love both. The magazine is great to read because it has articles I probably would not have searched for on line. I read from cover to cover. Both are indispensable for doing a much better job of purchasing just about everything cars, used cars, yard equipment, even many smaller items like toilet paper. It is a big time saver. I hate buying something that after I get it home it doesn’t work. Some places make it a hassle to return except Costco who makes returning easy and pleasant. The subscription pays for its self in money and time. CR is the best publication and service and lessons how to shop and look for or to watch out for. Your organization gets my very top Recommendations !!! Thank you for years of help..Version: 3.6.9
✓ Great source of informationGreat source of information and recommendations only wish they have more departments.Version: 3.6.10
✓ Use CR all the timeThe only downside is some products and codes aren’t available in Canada All prices are in US dollars.Version: 3.7.2
✓ TerribleTerrible, can’t log in, won’t give me access to reviews after I paid for it..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Broad set of categories acting as your purchasing advisorIt is rare that I find a category of purchases that consumer reports doesn’t have a strong perspective on “the good, the bad, and the ugly” products that make up the landscape of items available. I go here first and often to keep apprised of what products to seek out and what ones to avoid: across cars, tvs, refrigerators, laptops- all major purchases that you don’t want to mess up regularly..Version: 3.8.1
✓ Saves time and is trustworthyWould love if everything on desktop version was available.Version: 2.5
✓ I check see our first for everythingI make a habit of checking Consumer Reports before I buy almost everything. I’ve never gone wrong. I love the app. What I’m considering products this is my go to first for Consumer Report opinions. The last three cars I bought, I would do Consumer Reports and Garner bought the highest rated cars. Each one is lasted more than 10 years with almost no maintenance..Version: 4.2.1
✓ Average ConsumerThe average consumer needs a consumer advocate like Consumer Reports; otherwise we are flying blind when it comes to making purchases, large and small. Consumer Reports takes the ‘guess’ out guesswork. They do rigorous testing, research, and thousands of surveys for you. All one has to do is read over the literature to make an informed and objective decision; with great confidence. The is no worse feeling than being taken advantage of and being duped by corporate malfeasance. This is no longer the case for me as an avid CR reader. I buy all of my friends and family subscriptions to the magazine and to the online services as holiday gifts. It is the greatest gift of all, I am told, and is used all year around. CR now covers the entire gamut of every conceivable purchasing decision: from food to health care plans, to stores and services to automobiles. Knowledge is indeed power and CR, rightly, empowers the consumer. They cut through all of the clutter and go directly to aiding one in making the right decision every time; to me this is priceless! CR subscribers becomes discerning consumers and come to recognize the brands which deliver the highest quality and at the best prices. They are also the first to tell you when things change in the wrong direction. They have changed my life and I will never be able to say enough nice things about them..Version: 3.7.1
✓ Red copper nonstickWe purchased a red copper nonstick about two years ago. We’ve been careful to maintain it properly but despite our efforts the pan is now terrible at the nonstick function. This pan was made in China and we’re convinced China has little quality control and inferior materials which leads to premature failure. We’ve seen this on numerous products. As for the red copper pan, we noticed CR gave it a pretty high rating so we now question the type of longevity testing that’s done. We’ll continue to use CR recommendations but we’re disappointed in the red copper frying pan rating..Version: 3.8
✓ Always have the review!!Thanks.Version: 3.6.7
✓ CR appLove it!.Version: 2.2.1
✓ 4 Stars for One ReasonAnd that reason is their outdated app, very inefficient navigation and search bar needs lots of work to come up to a modern standard. Also, you can’t copy text from the app, if you want to check prices on other stores. Apart from that, CR is my go to for product reviews and testing..Version: 3.7.7
✓ My go to for before buyingWhile I don’t always completely agree with all their ratings, I always look up their opinions and ratings on things I’m in the market to buy. They are very good at weeding out the stuff NOT to buy and then their reviews give me a range to compare and compromise on. Love the objectivity and unbiased reports.Version: 3.7.2
✓ So helpful when making a purchase!Consumer Reports rarely disappoints when it comes to helping you decide which item to buy. Their app is incredibly easy to navigate; you can compare multiple items at a time, filter by certain brands/sizes, etc. Before my subscription I would be scouring the Internet for hours, even days, trying to learn what constitutes a “good” product, but you don’t know who’s behind the scenes funding that “research,” and sometimes the data come up conflicting article to article. CR takes all of the guesswork out of this process by developing an objective way to compare products. They break down the nuances of what to look for and provide a non-biased rating of what’s in the market. Highly recommend!.Version: 3.8.1
✓ KitchenAid French door RefrigeratorI purchased all KitchenAid appliances for my new kitchen in 2017. About a year later, I started having condensation in the back so much so that I could not close the middle slide out tray. I had the extended warranty by Via and they have been out to repair over five times. They fix the condensation but then the ice maker doesn’t work. Via keeps coming out and replacing the control panel but it never fixes the problem. Now the refrigerator doesn’t even cool or maintain temps. When I call KitchenAid, they don’t even pick up the phone. It is frustrating but one thing for sure, I will NEVER buy KitchenAid products ever again..Version: 3.6.10
✓ Avoid wasting money on junkThey don’t test all products, but the ones they do I have had good luck with, I care about quality and CR helps me avoid paying for junk.Version: 4.2.1
✓ Great mattressWe have had our Tuft and Needle mattresses , twin XL, for a little over a year. My wife and I both love them. We are using them on Silvana adjustable bases. I particularly liked the idea that we were able try the mattress out in the T & N store in Seattle before we bought something. The mattresses were purchased in the showroom and delivered by FedEx. Delivery was quick. The mattresses are firm but the top layer is soft enough to cushion my hips while on my side( large overweight man) sleeping. I do find that elevating the foot section of the bed puts more weight on my thighs and less on my hips. We highly recommend Tuft & Needle mattresses..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Helpful, could be betterThe ratings are helpful when they are up to date, but some ratings are old and the top rated products are sometimes no longer available. Also, I wish more of the content that is available on the website could've accessed on the mobile app. The thing that I appreciate the most is that that ratings are objective. Every product in a given test is tested in exactly the same way..Version: 3.7.6
✓ CR Magazine is in Apple News app.CR Magazine is now in Apple News app w/o a the CR subscription fee..Version: 3.5.1
✓ Unbiased reviewsTrusted source. Don’t have to rely on so called star reviews on sites which are often paid or subject to negative troll attacks.Version: 3.7.2
✓ CRKeep manufacturers honest - good work CR!.Version: 2.5
✓ A must have app!I base all of my big purchases on CR reviews and recommendations. I have never been steered wrong. From cars to TVs to coffee makers and stick vacuums their testing and reporting is right on the money. No advertisements. No sponsorships. No outside influence from the corporations they are reviewing nor annoying influencers who will shill anything if paid enough. Fair. Accurate. Unbiased. And it costs almost nothing. The money it will save you on one purchase will pay for your subscription! Worth every penny!!!.Version: 3.7.2
✓ Smart watchesCould not find a review on them.Version: 3.7.2
✓ Web site CR and this App are not congruentConsumer Reports web based has under Product Reviews exactly 7 categories and this app has exactly 6, missing the key section of Money which in kind has under it 4 subsections: Airlines, Car Insurance, Homeowner Insurance and Luggage. I paid for the digital subscription basically to access all of the items under the Money category, specially Insurances , Airlines and Luggage. Luggage is not even accessible in this app. It is available under the website Of CR..Version: 3.6.2
✓ MeI make sure I check with consumer reports before I buy anything.Version: 3.6.10
✓ ExcellentLove the CR app!!.Version: 3.0
✓ Not iPad use friendly.It’s too bad the app isn’t really set up to be viewed in a large screen. I was looking for a better experience in the app, but it’s small as if I was using a phone. As far as services and information is great, although sometimes I’m confused about the conflicting reviews of vehicles, their quiet but yet noisy? I know there are a lot of things that are taken into consideration when reviewing vehicles but that’s one point I’m sometimes confused on. I also wish there was an option to view the different types of models under the respective lines and what the different features are for instance the Toyota Highlander has like 15 different styles under their 5 lines, including the hybrid variations, where can I find it? Maybe is there somewhere and I just haven’t found it yet. Otherwise I’m very happy with the rest of the information that’s provided to help get a general idea of the year or model I’m looking into..Version: 3.8.1
