Brand Repeats
Brand Repeaters
524 of the 1,519 reviewers have reviewed other products for this brand. While this is more Brand Repeaters than we'd expect to see, it does not appear to have a significant impact on the overall rating.
Brand Loyalists
93 of the 1,519 reviewers have reviewed multiple products but half or more of their reviews are for this brand. This is an excessively large percentage of Brand Loyalists which may indicate unnatural reviews.
Fail Suspicious Reviewers
Suspicious Reviewers
One-Hit Wonders
164 of the 1,519 reviewers have only reviewed this product. The One-Hit Wonders have rated this product an average of 4.7 while the reviewers who have posted more than one review have rated this product an average of 4.5. 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.

Warn Deleted Reviews
Deleted Reviews
We discovered a total of 30 deleted Reviews for this product, with an average rating of 4.5. Even though deleted reviews don't affect the average rating, the fact that action was taken to delete reviews raises some red flags about the integrity of the reviews for the product as whole.
There are a few limitations to keep in mind regarding the Deleted Reviews test:
- 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.
- We have no information on reviews that were never published in the first place.
- 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.

- Created over 77 days
We counted 1,519 reviews for this product over the span of 2,726 days, an average of 0.6 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 77 days exceeding this threshold:In total, we found that 570 reviews were created on just 77 days. This is an excessively high number of reviews submitted on these high volume days.
Warn Reviewer Ease
Reviewer Ease
The ease score is the average rating for all reviews that a given reviewer submits.
