Show HN: An independent and unbiased database for high-quality products

How are you going to avoid manipulation of scores?

In the UK, Which? magazine does independent reviews of many consumer products.

To remain independent, they purchase the products themselves, so much of the information needs a subscription to see.

My parents subscribed to the magazine for years, and based many purchases on it's advice.

There are several shoes and coat brands in the 1K plus range that are incredible quality but obviously few people can afford. How would those gain any traction given that the site is based on voting? Seems like only mass market brands have the upper hand.

I certainly like the idea but at least as far as the subreddit and groups with similar concepts go they tend to creep towards product porn type stuff and a lot of uninformed "this lasted a long time" but fairly unknowledgeable recommendations. Not sure how to avoid that.

What does “unbiased” mean in this context? Who am I trusting with a definition of “high quality”?
