Reviews on this item Am I the only one here who thinks it's peculiar about the reviewers on this item? I read about half of the reviews and a lot of them looked a lot alike in style and claims so I decided to click on the username of some of the reviews and I found it quite odd how 5 out of 7 of the usernames I checked, THIS was the ONLY review they've ever submitted. I'm not jumping to any false conclusions here but I'm going to look more into this company before I purchase a warranty from them and I suggest you guys do the same.

You made me suspicious, but after sampling 10 of the reviews, I found that 10/10 of the authors had multiple reviews posted for other unrelated items. I think it's legitimate.

It is legitimate. This is a big company. Even in big retail stores (Sam's Club for example) they offer Square Trade warranties instead of providing their own warranty service.

There are many people that write deceiving reviews. Some are being paid and some are getting free product. For instance a person that gives 5-star reviews for three like products from three different companies the same day or within a couple of days. Saying for each, "nothing worked until I tried this". Also a variety of different products. It can take up are lot of time to do this research. Check the other $100's of various products reviewed at the same time. I have written down the names of 14 people that reviewed the same items around the same time, saying about the same thing. But not giving info that is significant.

I realize that I'm years late to comment on this, but that is exactly why you should use the forums for complaints about the company/fulfillment/etc. and use the ratings for the products. I didn't see your rating when skimming through, but I saw the effect of your two-star rating. Now, years after many people have had to wait for their units, production is not longer having trouble keeping up with demand, and your two-star rating is no longer relevant, but still affects the average rating.Regardless, Chris N. was a jerk in the way he/she addressed the misuse of the rating system.

People might want to notice that the positive answers are all phrased similarly and were made within a day or two of the question being asked. Either the seller is posing as satisfied customers, or people who ordered this check Amazon on a daily basis to see if there are questions about it, or ... it's a coincidence. In general, watch for names that look similar, in the same tone, posted around the same time.

Well, it appears Amazon spammed past purchasers of a product all on the same day in what appears to be a staged question. I mean really, this question defies logic. If you own it, you would know from feeling it whether it would work or not and if you are wanting to buy it, why would you even consider buying a wash mitt for waxing? And what about the forums that are already there, where people comment about products. Were those not doing the job? No, I'm not believing that this is genuine.

Thanks for pointing this out. I checked on most of the reviewers, they have reviews on a lot of products so I'm skeptical and will try a different product.

Hi. I've read that there are fakes around on ebay for sure. I can't vouch but the box here and the warranty card, manual, cloth, case - all look pretty authentic to me. The logo cut too looks pretty authentic. If you want to compare to a fake google for sample images. You pretty much can tell straightaway. The box (for fake) is a little like this but seem oversized, the logo cut is clumsy (unless "they" refined it) and the flute do not come with the above warranty cards owner's manual etc. My case is moulded plastic which has maroon velvet, my friend's son's has a case like this one.

Same feeling here. I have never seen a product with 93 5-star reviews and only 1 one negative, 1-star. Nothing in-between. Seriously??? Plus a number of people have mainly Ozeri reviews.Plus all these reviews are extremely frequent: one every few days. What are the chances???

I just check and see if they have other reviews, especially different types of products, my reviews are really random, lots of different products and categories. So find the review you find most relevant then check their other reviews and if they seem legitimate, then your probably safe. In the case of this product, I found several 5 star reviews very legitimate, I just ordered and will definitely give a review.

I didn't buy it. I think it totally depends on you. If you know the company is solid in their reputation, then I sure you will be able to make a decision as to whether its worth the purchase. I figure if it's something like a computer or electronic, I be more prone to buying a warranty then any other product...just depends on what it is;)Hope that helps,Mighty Counselor

Thank you everyone. I see the people here who like it and that's helpful. Some other places people did not like their screens, speakers sounded funny, etc... it makes you wary. As some of the other reviews were straight out of the box I wanted to see if everyone was still satisfied after the "honeymoon" period. Thanks again!!

You are welcome! Thank goodness Amazon allows all comments. That's why I keep going back to Amazon. But when one of their suppliers seems to go cheap, we need to be clear!

Half of these reviews seem bogus. If one reads through the reviews, they will find several reviews that have the following in common:1. "Technical Support" as the subject2. Purchases are not "Amazon verified"3. When one looks up "see all my reviews", there is only 1 review.Really, I mean if I'm a newbie on Amazon, the one and only purchase I decide to review is a wireless IP camera that I'm going to have to punch through a router in order to see it on my iphone, IPAD, or Android device, and the subject of that review is praising technical support, I think not.

I agree, most of the reviews seem to be spam. A dead giveaway is that for most of the reviewers, this is the only product they have reviewed on Amazon.

Definitely the review system needs tweaking! I suggest they 'weight' the reviewers, so those with verifiable info, a track record of genuine reviews, and so forth, their reviews get more 'weight' (ie count for two or something). Yelp does something like that now. As far as this green coffee bean extract, the giveaway is that all the other suppliers for the same product have lowish reviews, wouldnt make sense that this one supplier would have such a superior product.

I've notice that, too. Looking at buying a receiver and all of them seem to have this rate. Is it perhaps sample size? Most of them seem to have less than 100. Sometimes I wonder if the negative stories are real. But in one case I trust the person and the review is real.

Thank you for noticing! I thought I was the only one who questioned this. I would never have known if I hadn't tried to order one for my mom's birthday because she liked mine so much. I nearly dropped my teeth when it was listed at $119.00. I checked the next day and it was $249.00! In addition, there was a new seller. It appears as if the second seller bought out the first one. Other sites seemed to have their stock dried up as well. When I bought mine Amazon sold it and I used my prime membership to save on shipping. Seems like someone figured out a dirty little way to scam us. I wonder how many other low profile products are going the same way. I called customer service. I did not get a satisfactory response, so I e-mailed them just now. I hope they take notice.
