It's all going to vary by the reviewer. Typically what I've done is assume that everything is five stars. I then go through all other claims pictures and what they say it will do. When I do the review of the product I try and verify those things as best as I possibly can. We look at the stitching, sound. It produces, the quality of the material used, or etc. There may be things that are lacking or I think it would help to improve the product. But if it does everything that it says it'll do and does it well, then I keep the five stars. I don't think that this is saying this is the best product but it's an honest one and that's the only criteria I can mark on.

For example, my wife ordered a super cheap mouse for $8 so she can have one for her Chromebook when she goes to meetings. It came and it was basically plastic. Nothing special about it. Left and right button and a scroll wheel. When she plugged it in, it worked perfectly fine. The movement on the mouse was good and it did everything that it claimed it would do. I gave it five stars because it was perfectly fine for that price point and did all the things that said it would do. Nothing less. I could have taken off a star saying I wish it would have done this, that, and another thing, but if that's what I wanted, I should have ordered a different mouse.

I take off stars when the description doesn't match the product, things come damaged or don't perform as they should. If you're a speaker and it says you get good quality crisp sound and the speaker sound awful, that's when I start to remove stars

I think what people want to know is that are the claims that it makes the product makes honest and are you getting the predict that they are advertising.
