This is actually a good example why you should
never go by just one article. Always try to find a second or third article, but a completely different author/in a completely different magazine to corroborate what is said.
If I buy something (unless I absolutely want it, just to have it) and there's only one review, I generally dismiss it. Only when there are more and they all point in the same direction, will I believe it. And these days, with the internet, it becomes easier and easier to do just that.
