120 of the 439 reviewers have had at least one of their past reviews for another product deleted. The Take-Back Reviewers have rated this product an average of 4.4 while the reviewers who don't have any deleted reviews in their history have rated this product an average of 4.1. Based on our statistical modeling, the discrepancy in average rating between these two groups is significant enough to believe that the difference is not due to random chance, and may indicate that there are unnatural reviews.

• 10%
• Created over 7 days

We counted 439 reviews for this product over the span of 1,021 days, an average of 0.4 reviews per day. If these reviews were created randomly, there would be a 99.9% chance that we would see 4 or fewer reviews on any given day.

However, we see the following 7 days exceeding this threshold:

• 9 Reviews on Apr 3, 2018 (Avg. rating: 4.4)
• 7 Reviews on Apr 10, 2018 (Avg. rating: 4.6)
• 6 Reviews on Apr 11, 2018 (Avg. rating: 4.7)
• 6 Reviews on Feb 11, 2018 (Avg. rating: 3.7)
• 5 Reviews on Apr 2, 2018 (Avg. rating: 4.6)
• 5 Reviews on Apr 4, 2018 (Avg. rating: 4.2)
• 5 Reviews on Feb 6, 2018 (Avg. rating: 3.6)

In total, we found that 43 reviews were created on just 7 days. Although any days with a larger number of reviews than expected is suspicious, the discrepancy in ratings from reviews created on these high volume days and reviews created on other days isn't significant enough to rule out the possibility of it being due to random chance.

• Reviews have been deleted

We have not discovered any deleted reviews for this product.

There are a few limitations to keep in mind regarding the Deleted Reviews test:

1. We don't have a magic ability to collect every single deleted review; we can only identify reviews as deleted if we collect them on one date and then notice they are no longer visible on a subsequent date.
2. We have no information on reviews that were never published in the first place.
3. We also don't know why these reviews were removed. It could be action from the platform, personal decision by the review author, part of an entire account closure, even some data error on our part, etc.
