The original thing that grabbed me about their reviews was their analysis of monitor flicker: some monitors gave me a headache, some didn't, I'd just started realizing it was likely due to the use of PWM flickering for brightness, and then I found that rtings included that information with every monitor review so that I could select monitors that didn't flicker.

In general, they capture much more information than most reviews, and make it possible to search and sort based on that information.
