    Wirecutter used to be good, but they’ve pretty much entirely sold out to whoever pays them I think. The Spruce Eats seems maybe slightly better than them these days for that sorta household stuff?

    TechGearLab and OutdoorGearLab are still good.

    Project Farm on YouTube is top tier testing for tools and whatever else catches his eye, though I wish it was a little easier to see the results in a spreadsheet instead of having to screenshot the video.

      I still think Wirecutter is testing and better than the fake review sites but yeah I’d agree that I think they tip the scales from time to time.

      One example, Fitbit has been their fitness watch recommendation forever and their charge watches have been ewaste garbage for years.
