Consumers' Research is a defunct non-profit organization established in 1929 by Stuart Chase and F.J. Schlink after the success of their book Your Money's Worth: a study in the waste of the Consumer's Dollar galvanized interest in testing products on behalf of consumers. It published a monthly magazine called Consumers' Research Bulletin. Staff from this organization protested and left to form Consumers Union in 1936. The magazine published by Consumers Union, now called Consumer Reports, gained popularity and market share over the Bulletin and supplanted its relevance.
