"But it does garner a positive sonic review with caveats relating to reliability issues."
I found the review a bit strange also, but effective none the less.
Would you, after reading the review, likely buy anything from that manufacturer? Probably not. I wouldn't for at least three years... Most magazines would never have even mentioned that they tried the unit so we have actually learned a great deal from the review.
What we come away with from a review depends a lot on our background. Mine has been a life spent in electronic manufacturing so what I see is inexperience driven incompetence. Most likely they will fold but there is a finite possibility that they will either hire or gain enough experience prior to that happening to become a reliable source. Meanwhile I would, as a user, avoid their products like the plague and I know that from the review.
