So, everyone else finds a product with only 5 star reviews to be suspicious, right?
My strategy is to skim the 1-2 star reviews to see if they have any legitimate complaints or if its just personal bullshit.
Yeah like "flashlight is pretty bright but the switch quit after 2 months" and if I see several reviews talling about failed switches I kmow what's up. A good product will have a 1 star review talking about "flashlight tastes terrible and hurt my teeth."
"SENT ME TO ER, and denied return. I don't know why guys enjoy flashlights so much for "playtime", but this one ain't it, had to go to er when gf got a little too rough with it."
