    There have been a few companies that have claimed they are biased

    Consumer Reports Charged with Bias over Coverage of Birth Control Pills

    Is Consumer Reports Biased? - The Car Connection

    In my opinion you have to realize that someone must fund what they do so they may be less inclined to point out faults in the companies that fund their tests. I haven't ever considered it 100% reliable and would never base a decision only on what they say. In the case of a major purchase I would see what they say and compare it to other websites.
