I can't understand why they are misleading consumers like me. I tried several of their top recommended products, but later had terrible experiences with nearly all of them. In most of the cases, CRs ratings are not matching the basic features and parts of products. It means CRs doesn't physically touch many of these products before giving them ratings. Based on CRs rating, I ordered a dehumidifier, wifi-extender, router, modem, monitor, and many other products. They didn't have several features and even parts that I had seen on CRs. Later, I locked myself into a contract in an awful cell phone plan, which is still on the top of the list of CRs. It’s still being recommended by CRs.Meanwhile, they also rate products that aren't yet out on the market or just came out to the Market. It clearly shows that they are literally fortune tellers. Their ratings are only based on their guesses. They do not do any professional experiments and testing. Otherwise, how is it possible to rate products that aren't out or just came out?More importantly, they don't archive their ratings. It means that if products became so notorious like the display, wifi-extender, router, and dehumidifier I ordered, they would simply delete that list or edit it. CRs should be ashamed of what they have been doing. They not only help consumers but also mislead them. It costs consumers like me hundreds or even thousands of dollars. It’s my last year that I pay for their very useless subscription. I would rather believe a product's manufacturer claims than CRs ratings.
