I think it's fair that they don't offer real off-brand budget recommendations. I do think they offer a generally reasonable array of choices.

Well, nor should they because those items tend to disappear from the market within months and not be widely available. So that's a feature not a bug.

You don't want to research and recommend a product from a random seller on Amazon that won't be available six months from now.

Their budget recommendations are, correctly, products that have proven to be reliable and available.

Totally agree. The budget recommendations tend to be reliable budget and not a questionable "steal."
