Consumer reports that you pay for, or at least websites that have a policy of avoiding or declaring conflicts-of-interest, seem to be the reasonable middle-ground.

I don't understand you, the term "Consumer Reports Best Buy" has been in use since at least 2004, which implies CR permitted the term to be used.

I noticed recently actually seeing "Consumer Reports Best Buy" listed in ad copy for some products.
For decades they were extremely assertive about not licensing that sort of stuff out, to the point where advertisers used to say "A leading consumer magazine" if they wanted to hint about that.
