I find CU useful for appliances and other stuff that is kind of hard to research through "enthusiast" forums. Like, I'm really going to go find the enthusiast forum for leaf blowers or microwaves or dishwashers or auto insurance policies, and spend hours browsing and asking about those boring things - no way, I'd rather consult CU. For stuff that I am more interested in - cars, computers, TVs - I find CU less useful, not that their information is wrong but their priorities are likely different than mine. The auto reliability data is very useful though, probably the best data that you can get short of the auto industry's internal data.
