Score Card

Popular Science is a General Review site founded in 1872 that’s based in New York, New York, United States. They earned an average Trust Score of 26% for 13 categories out of 15 we evaluated. Consequently, their product reviews are not trusted when it comes to reliability.

Their categories feature mentions of the reviewer using the products along with some category-specific test methodologies. However, most of their categories lack real world photos and quantitative test results. For their general content, they have an About Us page and easy-to-find affiliate commission disclosure, but they could use an ethics statement, scoring system, and more. They make their money off affiliate programs, ads, and sponsored posts..
