Truly independent testing and product reviews
YES, it really is unbiased – we buy all the products and test this in the lab and then members test them in the real world. We are not paid to test so all the results are REAL, GENUINE and not biased by advertisers or sponsorship. (And quite often the manufacturers don’t like it, because we tell you the truth!)
