I want to provide some feedback on the Fakespot review checker because I have been using it when researching products. After hours of searching I found that one of my "finalists" was reusing their Amazon listing page for previous generations of products. When you look into user reviews and photos, the item being described is an older generation of the current product. This inflates the user ratings on Amazon.
I don't know how accurate the Fakespot review checker is in this situation but I would have liked if it could flag that reviews on Amazon were not accurate.

Thanks for sharing this — it's a frustrating issue that highlights how some sellers manipulate Amazon listings by reusing them for updated or entirely different products, skewing the overall ratings and misleading buyers. Fakespot does a decent job analyzing review quality, but it definitely struggles with these kinds of listing abuses where old reviews don’t reflect the current item. A flag for mismatched product generations would be a valuable addition. If you're trying to make more informed decisions, especially in situations like this, I strongly recommend checking out Delta Executor download it and see how it can support deeper, more reliable product evaluations.
