Looks like they’re paying for fake reviews.

How could you possibly doubt the word of uh... Jefferey Tromp and his good friend Romaine.

I’m interested in the second one shown. It’s 5 stars but they’re sorry it doesn’t work…?

There's always a review giving 5 stars and saying how terrible the product is, and another glowing review full of praise with 1 star. So this one could actually be a human.
