I wish i could be excited about these "reviews", but they're really nothing more than product placement to draw "site supporters" who send money, and then direct you to amazon redirect tokens to generate a commission.
it seems like it's about all the internet is now. Nobody is interested enough to tell you about something unless they're selling or pushing you toward affiliate links.
Highly lucrative for the right channel owners, and completely obnoxious to me, and obviously highly loved by the data algorithm because it brings all of the marks in for google to sell as a data package. Not specifically this channel, but all of the "test" channels like it.
I couldn't name the last thing on Youtube that is similar to Curtis Buchanan's chair series.
I hope every single channel like this fails and there's a reset, but I realize that's never going to happen - it'd be like wishing for TV and streaming networks to have amnesia and forget what commercials are.
This guy’s a little better than most, I think. He actually covers a wide swath of brands, including major name brands, and all the Chinese, Harbor Freight knockoffs. And he does usually incorporate some destructive testing. His conclusions do occasionally point to a diamond in the rough, sometimes the most expensive, and sometimes a middle-of-the-road consumer brand that isn’t quite as good as the best, but has great value for less money.
And my problem watching him is his voice. And I don’t care for his editing. And the average sound level is too high. And he begins too many sentences with ‘and.’

I find a wire brush on a grinder does the trick best on rusty threads.
