Tony Simons
Brutally Honest. Mildly Sarcastic.Welcome to the anti-influencer review site. No corporate jargon, no sugarcoating, and absolutely no paid fake positivity. Just real reviews from a real guy in Iowa.
The Protocol
No Sponsors
I don't accept payment for reviews. My opinions are not for sale. If a product sucks, I will tell you it sucks.
Real Testing
I actually use this stuff. Whether it's a laptop or a frozen pizza, I test it in the real world, not a sterile lab.
Your Wallet First
My goal is to help you make smarter buying decisions. If something is a waste of cash, I'm the first to say so.
The Origin Story
I was born in Maryland, grew up in Florida, survived the woods of Wisconsin, and eventually landed in Ames, Iowa in 2005. I've been here ever since.
I work a regular 9-to-5 job just like everyone else. By night (and weekends), I run Tony Reviews Things. It's my way of doing what I love—messing with cool tech and eating food—without having to answer to a corporate overlord.
This site isn't about being the biggest tech outlet. It's about being the most honest one.
The Crew
Got a Challenge?
I'm always looking for the next cool gadget or weird snack to test.
