It would be a shame if the reviews went away though. There are tons of garbage reviews out there, but I still find some gems out there. Recently, I was in the market for a paint sprayer and one reviewer wrote this crazy detailed review of the sprayer he purchased, what type of paint he used to paint his cabinets, why this paint worked vs. the other ones he tried, and included numerous pictures of the process and results. It was super helpful not only in making my selection, but ultimately completing my project. I also have found a bunch of instances where people will post tips in the reviews about how to fix or modify a product to make it perform better (or sometimes unfortunately just perform to its advertised specs). In one case I was able to repair my own refrigerator with a part purchased on Amazon and the instructions found in a review. While I'd rather have purchased it locally, that would have meant a service call and spending half the cost of the unit to get it repaired vs. a hundred or so dollars for the new circuit board from Amazon.
