Seems to me that Consumer Reports should implement a new program whereby customers that prove themselves to be trustworthy can submit a receipt and a review for a product, and if it is voted helpful enough (by other shoppers), that reviewer gets one free month of Consumer Reports subscription.
The result: verified, honest, reliable, helpful reviews. It would boost CR's value and give the world something it badly needs.
I suppose Amazon could do this with gift certificates or a month of free Prime or something.
- i__believe 10y agoI don't think that's why people buy consumer reports. At least for me it's about getting a professional review in the context of the product as well as against others in the same category from a source whose only interest is keeping the customer (me) informed. I'll admit that limits the selection of the products reviewed, but I'm OK with that trade off. I think what you're describing could work well for Angie's List though (also a customer of theirs).
