I always understood it to be one of the TOP mehadrin hechshers, and included it in the 3-4 that I used here in Israel. Can someone please elucidate?

I understood that Rav Rubin was also a "top" hechsher. According to what is written below, it would seem there may be reason to suspect its reliability, or am I being overly melodramatic?
