Analysis Details
Fail Rating Trend
-
- 21%
- Created over 123 days
We counted 13,545 reviews for this product over the span of 2,111 days, an average of 6.4 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 123 days exceeding this threshold:In total, we found that 2,857 reviews were created on just 123 days. The reviews on these high volume days have rated this product an average of 3.7 while reviews from other days have rated this product an average of 3.4. 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 Unverified Purchases
382 of the 13,545 total reviews for this product are unverified purchases. The unverified purchasers have rated this product an average of 2.4 while the verified purchasers have rated this product an average of 3.5. 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.
Unverified purchases may be the result of Kindle Unlimited readers, buyers who didn't pay full price, or reviewers who did not purchase the product at Amazon. Read more about our Unverified Purchases test.
Fail Suspicious Reviewers
Take-Back Reviewers
3,980 of the 13,545 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 3.6 while the reviewers who don't have any deleted reviews in their history have rated this product an average of 3.4. 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.
Single-Day Reviewers
178 of the 13,545 reviewers have written multiple reviews but posted all of them on a single day. The Single-Day reviewers have rated this product an average of 4.0 while all other reviewers rated this product an average of 3.5. 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
We discovered a total of 130 deleted Reviews for this product, with an average rating of 3.9. 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.
Warn Reviewer Participation
-
- 62%
- From reviewers with an overrepresented participation
We see the following 2 participation groups with a statistically significant greater concentration than what we'd expect to see:In total, we found that 8343 reviewers (or 62%) are within an overrepresented participation group. This is an excessively high number of reviewers in overrepresented participation groups.
