What Constitutes A Review ?
This is a good question and we feel that you deserve our
perspective on this matter before reading the reviews that we provide
links to. In the days since the internet first took hold as one of the
major sources of information for amateur astronomers, many discussion
groups dealing with equipment have emerged. We take pride in the fact
that Denkmeier
product users post so many favorable comments on their own
about our
systems. These positive comments
are probably more accurately classified as "testimonials" rather
than "reviews". We are very appreciative when
customers decide to share their experiences about our products with
others members of these
user groups. Such a post is less formal and generally can be written
and posted to a user forum without having to pass standards that may be
required in other venues.
Formal Reviews
The reviews
that can be accessed in
this section represent careful comparisons by highly experienced
amateur astronomers and they have been published by websites or in
magazines with excellent reputations. All of the reviews were independently written
without our input and
there was no personal relationship between the reviewers and Denkmeier
Optical, Inc. If we were emailed with questions during the review
process and we answered questions that the reviewer may have had. In some cases, we had no idea that the
review was being
done. In fact, one review on our Power x Switch was just happened upon
today (June 26, 2005) and it appears to have been published in April,
2005.
We Are A "No-Knock Zone"
As you will notice throughout our website, we do not compare our
products directly with other competing brands. We conform to the same policy that
other reputable
companies have maintained on their websites. We do what we do as well
as we possibly can so that our products will aquire a reputation for
being of the highest quality by word of mouth among amateur
astronomers. We expect that the prospective customer will decide which
is best after compiling information from various
independent sources rather than by having us bombard visitors to our
website with such claims. The customer base that we supply our products
to consists of a very intelligent group of astro-enthisiasts. Our goal
is to tell enough about our product here, and then provide objective
and independent reviews so that each visitor to our website comes away
with a better understanding of what the issues are, and whether we
deserve
to be the supplier of their Binoviewer System.
