Following up on my own post, I came across this defintion which I find useful for the subject at hand:
Review - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A consumer review refers to a review written by the owner of a product or the user of a service who has sufficient experience to comment on reliability and whether or not the product or service delivers on its promises. An expert review usually refers to a review written by someone who has tested several peer products or services to identify which offers the best value for money or the best set of features.
Mind you, we do a lot more "reviews" than just those which make it into our review forums. We constantly comment on razors, or recommend them. And the funny thing is, whenever I asked the experts outside the forum what they think about a certain razor, the answer was "that is a good razor" (admittedly, I have not asked them about Zeepks, or Chroniks). I have rarely come across "you must buy this razor, as it outshaves almost every other razor on earth." Which, to me, means that most razors we deal with are in fact "good", ie they get the job done. And I find that I sometimes pick a razor which I know does not work as well for me as another, simply because it is pretty or otherwise interesting (like my ivory handled wedges - they really don't work as well as the large full hollows I have, but they are simply too appealing to not use them). Are they "good" razors? I cannot answer that question. For me, they are not, but somehow I still like them.
