Analysis Details
Take-Back Reviewers
43 of the 95 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.
We discovered a total of 3 deleted Reviews for this product, with an average rating of 4. 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.

- 66%
- Created over 2 days
We counted 95 reviews for this product over the span of 130 days, an average of 0.7 reviews per day. If these reviews were created randomly, there would be a 99.9% chance that we would see 5 or fewer reviews on any given day.
However, we see the following 2 days exceeding this threshold:In total, we found that 63 reviews were created on just 2 days. This is an excessively high number of reviews submitted on these high volume days.
93 of the 95 total reviews for this product are unverified purchases. This is an excessively large percentage of unverified purchases and it may indicate 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.
41 of the 95 total reviews for this product admitted to receiving a free or discounted product in exchange for a review. This is an excessively large percentage of incentivized reviews which may indicate unnatural reviews.

Brand Repeaters
34 of the 95 reviewers have reviewed other products for this brand. While this is more Brand Repeaters than we'd expect to see, the discrepancy in ratings between the Brand Repeaters and non-repeaters isn't significant enough to rule out the possibility of it being due to random chance.

58 of the 95 reviewers have substantial overlapping product review history.
