Consumer Reports
Perhaps one of the most respected magazines in the US is Consumer Reports. This magazine has been around for as long as I can remember, and is always full of interesting reports and information. If you are in the market for a large ticket item like a car or a major appliance, it is almost a sin not to get a few copies of Consumer Reports. They often review and test such things, and will help you make a better decision about what you should look at and what you should skip over. Consumer Reports often looks at how much something costs, what features are available, and how well the item does what it says it does. They often put merchandise though strenuous testing to see what has staying power, and what is going to fall apart after a few uses. Consumer Reports not only covers major purchases, they often deal with other items. Though I haven’t picked up a copy lately, I am sure you will find reviews of almost anything if you look back throughout the year. They often have special issues that relate to that year’s new car models as well, and you can find these in your local library if you don’t want to subscribe, but you really need to get the information.
If you don’t want to subscribe to the magazine, you can subscribe to Consumer Reports online. I’m not sure, but I think there is a fee to view the reviews on their website. This subscription fee is a worth investment, however, because there may be no one who will give you the many sides of the story like Consumer Reports will. When it comes to giving the consumer the information they need in a timely and easy to understand manner, there may be no equal.
You can also find consumer reports by regular consumers if you look online. You can find reports and reviews of just about anything you can imagine. If you want to know if a whitening toothpaste works, or if you should go with Verizon instead of Sprint for your mobile phone service, there is someone out there ready to let you know what he or she thinks. You can find consumer reports on just about anything including concerts and special events. Everyone has an opinion, and sometimes, personal accounts are the very best reviews you can get on any product or service.
