Me either! For one thing they rarely know much about the products they review. For another they tend to gush and restate the official statements from the manufacturer as though those statements are true. If Amazon says it is "whiter than white and blacker than black" you will see that reiterated by the reviewer even when they don't know what it means. I often wonder if these kind of reviews are designed to get a payoff from the manufacturer. They often sound like they were scripted by the manufacturer. Actually they are, they just read the manufacturer's release statement then repeat its main points! Totally useless IMO.
