Latest reviews
- (2024-06-16) Bretten Hooks: This product is amazing! Exactly what people need these days if they want to search on Amazon!
- (2024-06-09) Kaminy Doraisami: This is very good one. Saved me so much in avoiding the wrong impulsive purchase.
- (2024-06-04) Daniel Crouse: This has been awesome and super helpful when shopping on amazon
- (2024-06-04) WMT NC: A great assist in online shopping, given al the fly-by-nights and phony or doctored reviews. Another source of info for us consumers.
- (2024-05-16) Glen Barrington: It grades significantly tougher than some of the others. I don't know if that is good or bad. I tend to look at 2 or 3 ratings services and try to find a middle ground. While the letter grade is useful, I think the service could do a better job of explaining WHY they gave the rating they did.
- (2024-05-14) Dianna F: I love the whole idea of safe shopping. Thanks for being avaliable.
- (2024-05-13) Andrea Rice: I use this for most of my purchases and find it helpful and reassuring.
- (2024-05-08) Craig Covey: There is so much garbage being sold and so many fly-by-night companies claiming to have products which don't really exist. Fakespot helps a lot in eliminating some of the more obvious ones.
- (2024-05-06) Ed Vergara: Your rating is based on whether it's a fake review or a valid (or verified) review. If you think a review is a fake then you should mark the review with a fake marker, and then average out the Stars rating with the valid/verified reviews, and call it the verified rating. If you mark review fake then the reviewer should be given a chance to challenge your mark with a valid Amazon order #.
- (2024-05-02) Ben DeBruler: Really good at filtering out the cheap Chinese stuff on amazon.
- (2024-04-23) John Clark: One of the best extensions for online shopping. This and Camelizer are essential for Amazon.
- (2024-04-20) Jack McCurdy: The only safe way to purchase items online!
- (2024-04-14) Deborah “Debbie” Faddis: This is the best! I don't have to read all those reviews!
- (2024-04-13) Tabby Lei: Great tool to combine fake rating. Just having Fakespot on Amazon reminds me that the ratings may not be real. thank you for creating the tool,
- (2024-04-08) Joel Daniels: Very helpful.
- (2024-04-04) J Celestin: Love it. I won't make a purchase without it.
- (2024-03-19) Jan Nuzzo: The thing to remember is that Fakespot is rating the reviews, not the products. A product that gets a rating of "A" just means that the reviews were not deceptive. They might have said that the product was awful, but if they are legit reviews, they will score well. A "D" review means the reviews are sketchy, not that the product is bad. I would rather have a review of the product, but at least there is some value in knowing if people are writing fake reviews.
- (2024-03-11) Adrian Melendez: It is mostly good. On some items it doesn't detect when the listing has changed, but otherwise is great.
- (2024-03-07) Kris K: Excellent helper with finding better products
- (2024-03-07) Jerry Eisner: I do a lot of research before buying. I am particularly concerned about phony or "incentivized" reviews. Fakespot helps detect these unreliable product reviews and helps limit my choices. It also rates the sellers themselves. Though not perfect, I use it in additon to my own research.
- (2024-03-03) Jocelyn Cloutier: Fakespot helps me in understanding the reputation of the store and product I am trying to buy. It is right there in the page, which is super convenient. It has a tendency to be "F" when there is not enough data. It should rather show "N.A", but it is easy to go around this issue with analysis (which take 1min).
- (2024-02-29) James Fritz: saves me a ton of time.
- (2024-02-26) Bob DeBusk: This Chrome extension has helped me because I've stopped buying so much junk on Amazon. Filtering all the fake reviews saves me time and money. Thanks a million to the Fakespot team!
- (2024-02-26) william yu: I'm paranoid about wasting money, unsure of how accurate they are, but it does help me feel better in a way.
- (2024-02-25) Andy Cooke: Thank you so much for this great extension!! You saved my bacon today!!
- (2024-02-23) JD Hale: I love this, it checks all amazon reviews and gives the adjusted review rating based on the real reviews
- (2024-02-22) M Sand: This extension works on every site and gives comprehensive analysis of both product and reputation of the company
- (2024-02-16) Alexander Vera: Nothing like a good copilot for sopping the web. Thanks!
- (2024-02-12) Josh DeGroote: Maybe it's just because I'm such an Amazon addict (like for real...) but I got so much use out of this extension. It also helped me be more aware and how to spot red flags, because as you prob know - the extension can't be used on your phone. So, I'd add products to my cart and then wait until I could get to my Mac to check out these ratings. I was about 5 for 7. I've used other extensions to help find the best price or product and none of them stood up to this. Was so happy when I found out its also compatible with Walmart and to a lesser extent, Shopify. No bad things to say.
- (2024-02-11) Andrew Goetz: I guess it is good.
- (2024-02-10) Marvin E Mitcham II: very cooland easy interface, like that it suggests better rated sellers and has link to add to cart from the rating box.
- (2024-02-10) Thom Loafman: One particular worldwide retailer doesn't seem to care about false adverstising and obviious falsehoods regarding country of origin. Fakespot helps me with that, and I've spread the message to all of my friends.Yours is a service i truly value.
- (2024-02-09) Bubba M: I've been selling for 20 years and it had a review of me as new seller. I don't know where they get this data.
- (2024-02-04) Mia Morrison: this is the best, and I regularly recommend it to other people. Won't look on amazon without it anymore.
- (2024-02-02) Christy D: Such a useful extension. Very helpful when comparing multiple sellers offering the same item.
- (2024-02-01) David Hannigan Jr. (Deputy Dave): Haven't used it but once yet so, yeah....
- (2024-01-30) Hannah Evanson: Yes, I love it, and I think I need it. I will say, for the sake of product improvement, that it seems to be very skeptical of things I know to be sold by small/indie/made in USA brands. I don't mind this, because I know (for example) that any lousy seller or website would love to convince me that they are, in fact, small and local. My point is, do your background research! When in doubt, I send an email to the company. Great companies will answer me, and heck, I can even feed that email to chatGPT to see if it thinks it's authentic. Just using the tools to my advantage.
- (2024-01-14) R Phipps: An essential shopping extension If I am shopping on Amazon or Walmart I use this extension extensively. I view it as a critically important shopping extension.
- (2024-01-11) Joshua Kasten: it makes me feel more confident about some of my purchases and organizes the products with better and more reputable reviews first
- (2024-01-09) Lynn Gronewold: It's amazing how many "fake reviews" get posted to online retailers..so glad to have Fakespot now!! Fool me once, shame on you, won't fool again now that I have Fakespot!!
- (2024-01-04) gretchen pfeffer: I believe Fakespot truly helps to prevent customers from getting scammed by terrible sellers. Thank you.
- (2024-01-02) Daniel Bright: Absolutely love this plug-in. I never write reviews but fakespot is so great I felt obliged. Thank you for this wonderful service.
- (2023-12-31) Benjamin Rubin: Been using this for years. Great extension

- (2023-12-27) Todd Schoenberger: Quite good, though the algorithm seems to err on the side of "fake"! Still, another data point.
- (2023-12-25) Padman Pisupati: Helps with making decision about the seller / shipper.
- (2023-12-23) Kelli Gallager: Helps me verify shipper and quality data as well as seller. Has been very useful!
- (2023-12-23) Jonathan “Jonny” Rolston: Helps me find all the fake reviews, I love it!
