Analysis Details
Fail Deleted Reviews
Deleted Reviews
We discovered a total of 334 deleted reviews for this product, with an average rating of 4.6. 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 59 days
We counted 5,000 reviews for this product over the span of 793 days, an average of 6.3 reviews per day. If these reviews were created randomly, there would be a 99.9% chance that we would see 16 or fewer reviews on any given day.
However, we see the following 59 days exceeding this threshold:In total, we found that 4,205 reviews were created on just 59 days. The reviews on these high volume days have rated this product an average of 4.7 while reviews from other days 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.
Fail Brand Repeats
Brand Repeats
Brand Loyalists
270 of the 5,000 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
567 of the 5,000 reviewers have only reviewed this product. While this is more One-Hit Wonders than we'd expect to see, it does not appear to have a significant impact on the overall rating.
Take-Back Reviewers
566 of the 5,000 reviewers have had at least one of their past reviews for another product deleted. This is an excessively large percentage of Take-Back Reviewers which may indicate unnatural reviews.
Fail Phrase Repetition

(5.0/5)
59 of the 5,000 total reviews for this product use substantial repetitive phrases between them. These reviewers have rated this product an average of 5.0 while reviews without substantial repetitive phrases rated this product an average of 4.7. 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.

- Have an overrepresented word count
In the graph above, we can see the distribution of review word counts for this product and the expected distribution for this category. We see the following 1 group with a statistically significant greater concentration than what we'd expect to see:In total, we found that 1,736 reviews (or 35%) are within an overrepresented word count group. While this is more reviews from overrepresented word count groups than we'd expect to see, the discrepancy in ratings between reviews with overrepresented word groups and all other reviews isn’t significant enough to rule out the possibility of it being due to random chance.
