Either they are:
  • Getting paid to give 5 stars
  • Are super vague like 'dis item great! 5 stars'
  • Are super nitpicky 'this item got worse over time with usage! 0 starz!'
  • Make no god damn sense at all. Like in broken English talking about random shit.


Most of them are either like 5 stars or the smallest amount of stars. Only reviews I can take seriously are the three star ones, but those ones just seem super indecisive. Which doesn't help when you are trying to make a decision.

Depends on the product. For basic dumb shit on Amazon yeah they're useless. But for more expensive hobbyist/professional type shit like cameras, music gear, etc. they can be incredibly useful.

Oh to clarify I mean the reviews on the website selling the product. Not like vlogger/blogger reviews or reviews from webpages dedicated to doing reviews.

It really just depends what it is, but a good rule of thumb is to immediately disregard any review of 1 star or 5. Another peeve of mine is agent they simply write "Great" or "This sucks" without further explanation.

Oh yeah those are useless for the most part. Vlogger/blogger reviews are usually useless too because they're either receiving money for the review or are fishing for a sponsorship.

I'm currently in the market for an external recorder/monitor for my camera and wading through all the bullshit reviews is tiresome.

I appreciate overly critical, detailed reviews. If none of their issues are dealbreakers, it's an actually worthy buy.

Only the negative ones matter. The "positive" ones are most likely fake reviews. No legit person would leave a positive review. If you want quality product, just choose one with the least negative reviews.
