One star reviews are hilarious in general.
I look at 1 star reviews just to get a sense of if idiots hate a thing, or normal, rational people had real issues. If it's just idiots, it usually pushes me more towards the thing.
If I see enough 1-stars saying the thing breaks quickly, etc. I pay attention to them. Also, the ones that say, "I should have paid more attention to the poor reviews."
I tend to ignore 5 star reviews, and read 1 and 4 star reviews.
The 1 star, for the reason you mentioned, and the 4 star because they tend to be more from people who have actual issues that keep it from being 5 star, but aren't petty and saying "everything sucks" because they felt like their waiter was 15 seconds late on a refill.
Item was exactly what I needed but arrived 1 day late.
1/5 stars.
(Vendor doesn't control shipping)
" Painful when inserted into rectum, 1/5 stars"
That’s a legit complaint though
It was for a framing hammer.
Not for a toilet brush
Also there was a massive storm that just went through the area that disrupted a lot of services.
I haven’t been here myself yet but I’ve heard bad things about it. 1/5 stars
