I'd like Amazon to take a look at this. These reviews are definitely fake, and this is completely unfair. It's probably a moot point since no one buys this product, but seriously - check this out!First of all, every single 5-star review - each person has ONLY REVIEWED THIS PRODUCT.Secondly, each five star review has NOTHING bad to say about the product. Usually, reviews have positive things to say, and at least one negative thing to say.

Um I used the product and my teeth became a lot whiter and I am just a normal person. Not everything works for everyone and it probably depends on the whitness of your teeth already, do you guys that just because the whitening system didn't work for you that it isn't going to work for anyone else?

Too bad I didn't read this prior to purchasing the product. You are right, now that my teeth are so sensitive I can't even sip a cup of water without wincing, I reread those reviews and they HAVE to be fake.

It's obvious that many of the possitive reviews are placed on the product by the salesmen of the product. This stuff really shoots the credibility of Amazon's feedback- that in many cases is extremely helpful.

I always look at a reviewers profile. If they give a super amazing review, and they have only reviewed the 1 product, you can pretty safely assume the review is fake. Or they've only reviewed the 1 product plus a second other random product, (which seems to happen a lot to make them seem more "believeable") I assume those reviews are fake too. I think many companies pay people to write the reviews because it seems very common. I see alot of this on amazon especially with the health & beauty and cooking-type products. I wish there was a way to make people more aware of this.

Yeah, I would have Amazon check it out. I bought this yesterday at Kmart and used it this morning, does anyone know if you can use teh light with other whitening gels (like 5 minute white, etc)

I give vine reviews less weight than other reviews. Not only is there an inherent bias when you receive a "gift" of a free product but they also try the product and do a quick review. They don't do the review after having the product for a reasonable period of time. At least Amazon notes that they are vine reviews.

@Derek Always look at the reviews. Hopefully more people will mention specifics. Look at the reviews for it for the last 6 months on this and other sites to see. Look at what they say so you know what issues some people may be having.

No idea. I wonder also when I browse and read reviews. I only take those with "verified amazon purchase" reviews seriously. Not much I am aware of unless others can chip in.

I pasted a group of exercises in my review of this product. Click on 4 star reviews. My moniker is By JLSMD "LaughingAllTheWay" . Right now, it appears my review is the second in the list of 4 star reviews. Good luck to you.

I personally don't think Amazon should let people review a product unless they bought it from them. The fake reviews can really skew a product's ratings. To second what Matt said, look for a trend in the ratings from verified purchasers vs. ratings from random people. :-)

Just because a product was offered at a discount doesn't mean the review is fake or influenced. It was provided at a discount to facilitate the review. This product happens to be effective hence the positive reviews from product testers. Hope this helps.

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 KNOW right?!? What has been happening to Amazon lately? More than half of the reviews I read seem to be "fake"! This really makes me feel nervous about buying the products because if companies have to pay people to leave fake reviews, its says something about their integrity, and probably about the quality of the product too...

They are definetly fake reviews just start checking what else they reviewed and everything is simailar and 5 stars, shame on you amazon thats why I use your site, now YOU cant be trusted..

I agree that several reviews appear to overly positive and generic. It makes me suspicious that they might be fake reviews.

Definitely fake. I'm on week 3 with NO results. All other brands have the same kind of reviews and the "people" only have 1 review to their name. Total SCAM. I hope you were able to return yours :/

I reviewed this and found several reviews with 5 stars that was not considered helpful. In my review I gave 5 stars, and was considered helpful. I'm not sure where you are going with this question?

Alot of people do not write reviews. when i got this product, it had a lable attached to it that said if you write an "honest" review, we will ship you a second bottle free. So i cant say there pushing for fake reviews because it said honest review. I will take advantage of that as well if this stuff really works.

I just check and see if they have other reviews, especially different types of products, my reviews are really random, lots of different products and categories. So find the review you find most relevant then check their other reviews and if they seem legitimate, then your probably safe. In the case of this product, I found several 5 star reviews very legitimate, I just ordered and will definitely give a review.

I believe you are correct. The positive reviews are junk, all extremely similar with the 'talking points', many end with the same "In conclusion..", all the same length - poor job by the company in faking this makes me think the product is shady. I will not be ordering now.

Probably a question best answered by Amazon, I have used this product for the last 2 years, and I am still very happy with it .Or perhaps you were just asking a rhetorical question ? Unfortunately I'm sure Many sellers do the same thing :-(
