Why are there so many terrible 1-star reviews on this product?

I have no idea, since the one we have has done everything it is supposed to do and never given any trouble at all. Now all that said, I do run Ubuntu Linux instead of Windows or Macintosh, and didn't use the included CD to install drivers or other software. With Linux it is just plug it in and it works, though you do need to install the HP Toolbox app to monitor your ink levels. So maybe the Windows software or drivers are the problem others are having. I couldn't be happier with it!

We have HP OfficeJet 6500 which has been a workhorse with no issues. It cost about $150. Good luck.

Probably because this particular All-In-One operates well and seems to disintegrate on it's own. This unit produces excellent copies, faxes and scans. At some point, the unit produces a staccato sound and then becomes useless. Customer support is useless and HP can't seem to find a solution. My guess is the timing feedback losses track of it's neutral mark and the print carriage destroys the machine trying to find home. I'm on my third unit and keep hoping customer service will recognize and repair this problem.

That was our experience. The company on has a one month warranty and two month return. Rather than post a negative review, as I did, why not threaten them with a negative review? At that point, there will be two bad reviews, which means that no one who reads reviews will ever buy their product. Maybe they will give you a refund. Unfortunately, we are out our investment.

I'm probably the wrong person to ask this question of. I have used this product just once. It was several years ago; and I probably messed up somehow because it didn't work very well. Most of the other people who have reviewed this product have just raved about the results. My experience; not so much.

imu lu, You are assuming people read all the reviews. Many read a handful of reviews and look at the percentage of star ratings as overall view of item quality. "What's useful about reporting the fact of a delay to potential purchasers is that a delay sometimes indicates the product may have performance problems when it ships, that the bugs just couldn't all be worked out, and that it may not hold up in service.' Or it may not . Giving low stars to something you don't own, because it might have a problems is silly. Every purchase we make carries that possibility.

This question was answered in a review of the product that was written more than a year ago. Most askers of that question want to reject the product or give a low rating if the answer is "no". Check the one star reviews.

I just assumed it was because the re-sellers are trying to promote the "perfect five star reviews" over other reviews to help boost their sales. Don't worry about the helpful/not helpful thing, you won't please everyone. I figure some people are looking at my reviews from a parent's perspective, some are looking at it from a kid or fanboy perspective and some are just re-sellers trying to move their (overpriced) products. If it helps any, I thought your review was spot on and just marked your review as helpful.

No it's not "that" good. People are just buying PSU with higher wattages than they needed then reviewing them far too early in the product lifespan. Many of the junk PSU will run for a year or two before failure. There are many choices that are equivalent in the same price range, but of course finding a sale and/or rebate is always the best bet for a good quality:price ratio.

Thank you for your question. We take great pride in our customer feedback. The 5 star ratings is a direct correlation to the quality of this product. As I'm sure you could tell, we are not the least expensive power bank, in fact, we are on the higher end. We have a very strong emphasis on quality. Where other brands may cut some corners to increase profit margin, we do the opposite. We will spend extra on higher quality components to ensure the highest quality standards. We have studied other brand's one star reviews and used those in developing our ZOOM Power Bank. The number one complaint from other brands is that their power bank stopped working after using it a couple of times. Please take a look at our picture of our quality control testing facility on our listing. Each power bank is individually tested to 1. receive a charge, 2. to hold the charge, and 3. give a charge (2 times)...that's 6 individual Quality Control tests before it reaches our customers. As far as the title, it is related to the way people search for items on Amazon. Because our product is not limited to a single type of device that it can charge, we tried to list as many as we thought people would be looking for when they searched. We are confident that if you use our product that you as well will give it a 5 star rating. :)

If you read the one star reviews on this product, you can see you are not alone. I feel like I was one of the fortunate few for whom this works as well as the original one did. Even after I had read the reviews, I decided to take a chance and got lucky as did a lot of people according to their reviews. You could try returning it as there doesn't seem to be any consistency in these - some work - some don't. Good luck as I know how frustrating it can be.

Mr. Keh, it shows extraordinarily poor business sense to blame your customers for the poor systemic performance of your product. I cannot imagine how poorly designed your hardware and software must be in order to cause such a catastrophic problem so easily, and I cannot imagine the hubris of telling someone that they must reformat their computer hard drive to recover their GPS and calling this "good news." I have determined now that I want no part of a product that blames it's users first for what is so obviously a systemic weakness of design.

You should really look at the other comments. I made a mistake and didn't pay attention and ordered this piece of crap for a family member. Anytime an item has more 1 star ratings than 4 and 5 star combined, you should reconsider your purchase. Just my opinion.

I am not a company plant either. In fact, I had never even heard of this company before I wrote my review. I only write reviews if I really DON'T like a product or I really DO like a product. Could it be that the reviews are consistently enthusiastic because this is a good product? Should I hide the fact that I am an educated consumer so as to sound "less rehearsed" in my write-up? This product is the real thing. Give this company some credit for all their hard work on making a good product and caring about their customers.

I am VERY sceptical of the reviews of this product. Rarely does ANY product receive a 4.9 rating (and NO 1, 2, or 3 star reviews) with as many reviews (73 as of 1 Jan 14), and wrist monitors are NOTORIOUSLY INNACURATE. It took me 3 minutes to scan all 73 "reviews," and I found that NOT ONE had an "Amazon Verified Purchase" tagline on it, further reinforcing my belief that these are phony reviews probably mostly done by Ozeri employees (many of them even say their review is in exchange for the device, i.e., they got it FREE). I say AVOID the thing and save the grief.

These are bogus reviews. It did nothing for me. I would say 90% of these reviews are from a circle of false reviewers. Check all their other product reviews and you will see that they are reviewing the same circle of products

I agree. I was just going through all the reviews and the majority got it for free or were not Verified Purchases. With that in mind, I am now skeptical of all of their products. Companies should realize that this whole paid review process can backfire.

Although I don't own this particular drive, I am here as I am looking to buy this one also to add to my two other Seagate 500gb Freeagents that I already have that have been working flawlessly for me for over 12 months now. I honestly think that your experience was most likely caused by a faulty unit. Without knowing your computer configuration (windows, mac or linux) it's hard to say if any extra steps would need to be taken to set it up, but for a windows or linux based pc it should be simply plug and play in my experience. As you see on this site, there is only one bad review of the product. If you think about how many of these must get sold every year, one bad review is pretty good as almost everybody will take the time to complain, but very few will come back to write a positive review as a working product is what most people expect. So I guess the short answer from me is yes, I would give this drive a second chance, but then again, i may be biased by my great experience. I hope that this is of some help to you..

Pay attention to the 1-star reviews: this product is good for nothing. It breaks in no time, it's waste of money.
