Do you read lab product reviews before making a purchase? We know that 96% of scientists expect to read independent reviews and unbiased testimonials before buying, so the chances are that you do.

That’s good news for us, because providing scientists with the information and resources they need to choose the best lab equipment to advance their work is the No.1 goal for all of us here at SelectScience®. One of the most successful ways we do this is by providing a platform for knowledge transfer in the form of unbiased, fully-moderated product reviews.

Peer reviews have a major influence on other people’s purchasing decisions and are also an effective way to provide manufacturers with valuable feedback to help them meet your needs as effectively as possible — but what are your reasons for leaving reviews?

Find out below why scientists love writing reviews on SelectScience — and why not submit a product review today yourself, to help other scientists advance their research (and gain entry to our $400 Amazon.com Gift Card prize drawing).
