I can't stand the "incentivized" reviews, and found this chrome plugin to be really helpful, it basically goes through and tries to remove the fake reviews for you and give you a new, more correct score without them - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/reviewmetacom-revi...

This is rather helpful. When I was looking for a cheap carry-on duffel with particular dimensions a few months ago, most items had ~10 incentivized reviews, and nothing genuine. You almost start looking for 4-star products, just because the reviews may actually be legitimate.

Aren't incentivized reviews banned now? https://www.amazon.com/p/feature/abpto3jt7fhb5oc
