How this ranking is built — and what it does not claim
Star ratings and rating counts read from each product’s public Amazon page; ranking also uses Best Sellers Rank and Amazon’s review ordering. We show the aggregate star rating and count only — never individual reviewers’ words.
Each product's customer standing score blends these inputs:
- Star rating (45%) — the product's real average rating on Amazon, weighted by how many people rated it (a 5★ from 12 buyers counts for less than a 4.6★ from 3,000).
- Best Sellers Rank (25%) — how many units actually move, on a log scale.
- Catalogue relevance (15%) — how central the product is to the search a keeper would run.
- Live discount (10%) and Amazon's review ordering (5%).
Products that surface in both Amazon's review-ranked and relevance-ranked results earn a corroboration bonus — that overlap is the strongest signal available that a well-regarded product is also the right one for the job.
On the star ratings: we read the aggregate star rating and rating count shown publicly on each product's Amazon page — the two summary numbers, nothing more. We never reproduce an individual reviewer's words, and a product with no rating on Amazon is shown without one rather than with a guessed figure.
