Somehow, tests have to be paid for!

Trouble with Which? is

a) they typically don't test very much of what's around, sometimes
only one sample from dozens i a particular market sector

b) by the time their tests are published the market's moved on and
much of what they tested isn't available any more.

Generally they attempt to spoon-feed their readers with "this model is
good, that isn't" rather than educating them what to look for e.g.
"kryptonite wongles are generally more robust than plasticene ones"

Unless they've changed: this was my experience when I gave up on them
a few years ago.

Sadly, I agree they have significantly dumbed down over the years.
