Re: Bad reviews due to comsumer errors

Some of the reviews are ridiculous. Example: someone bought a cast iron skillet and complained when it rusted, after she put it in the dishwasher!

Hi Lacey! I've also seen one-star reviews for cast iron pots that were one star because they were heavy. Gee, ya think?

Those crack me up. Was reading one for pure tea tree oil where someone gave it one star because they hated the smell. Um, it's tea tree oil...it smells like tea tree oil!

I hear you and sometimes my husband and I laugh when we read them. He will say gee do you think we should buy it. You have to use your read when you write or when you read reviews.

IMO QVC's entire review system needs a major overhaul. People don't even own the item yet post a review. I also think it's ridiculous to post a review when you just got it out of the package a few minutes ago. There should be a wait time before reviews can be posted.

I always check the reviews from low to high. It's more important for me to read why someone didn't like a product vs why they loved it to make an informed decision.

Agree! I remember there being dozens of five star reviews for David's ccokbook weeks before it even shipped from the publisher!!
