- Normille 5y agoI hate the way Amazon's search lumps together what its algorithm obviously believes to be "similar" items --even if your search terms specifically exclude those items. Specific example: I quite regularly buy tools off Amazon. I don't have a compressor, so I don't buy air tools. Depending on the type of tool I need, I will buy either 240v corded or Cordless Li-Ion versions. If I search for "240v corded Widget-Maker" I can guarantee Amazon will return equal numbers of "Widget-Maker air tools", "Cordless Widget-Makers", "110v Widget-Makers" etc. Likewise if I search for "Cordless Widget-Maker" I'll get returned all the other types too, including wired ones.
