If you want to see how out of touch the Q's reviews are, just go to Amazon and look up the Masterbuilt Smoker-

Sure, some reviews came in glowing at first, but then, most were updated with things like "Worked great for 6 months and now its dead" "It died after a year and no help form Masterbuilt C/S" " Temp controller went bad and there is NO fix"-

Of course some reviews were bad from the beginning....I found that very few of them worked more than a couple of years.. Of course, I stupidly didn't do ther esearch until MINE went bad...

really I did see glowing reviwes on last years from the Q...guess they were posted to soon.

No pun intended or may be so...good one!

Yeah, I saw them too and thought "Geez, an I the only one who had this happen?" and that is when I sought out other ( less biased)reviews- Like I said, some vendors ( Chaz Dean, John McLemore etc seem to have a strong following who review EVERYTHING they put or in such glowing terms...

I should have checked Amazon...I find their reviews very reliable. What a shame.

Well it has been more than a few years now but back when qvc sold sport savvy I posted a review that an outfit reminded me of something for elves and I never bought it.

But since I like to overread things since you say this is your first blog post have you posted in other forums but not as blog posts?

I find that many of the reviews follow the tempo of the forums - Wen, Ripka, Linea, LOGO - and those posters do positively rabid reviews for their idols!

Perhaps this should have been posted either in all the forums or at least in the forums that are more product centric than Viewpoints.

Good point.

Perhaps we should not be lectured and treated like 5 year olds

We need a name.

Toe Jam Pourri

Or Jammin' Toe-pourri. Give it a little more zip.

Has anyone seen the ads for something called brand.com. The company promises to remove negative reviews and to post positive ones. Prospective buyer beware

Hold on. You can't post a product review unless you have purchased the product. If you're talking about the various Forums - don't go to them and read the all the varied posts, just read the reviews for a product.

If I find something is junk or a zonk, I will post that it is in the product review.

Unless the review process has changed, here at QVC you absolutely CAN (or could) post a review for something you never bought...
