Comment on How do you search for honest product recommendations?

Don’t search for reviews. Search for forum posts where users are having issues. “[Product] + [not working/failed/broken]” gets you an idea of what the product is like to live with, and now quickly issues get resolved.

What you don’t get is a feeling for how common these failures occur though.

The problem is most people only post when they do have issues or they give everything 5 stars if it’s as expected.
I find ignoring 1 and 5 star reviews helps with this issue.
