I can understand why. Even with the plethora of shill reviews, it's still an easier way to get the general gist of a product looking at the reviews. I always look at the negative reviews from authenticated buyers. You can bet that if someone doesn't like the product that they'll post a review why.

We have BOTH Costco membership & Amazon Prime.

I'm seriously considering buying a commercial cardboard compactor :-)

I'm part of the 55 percent. ;D

The combination of Amazon Prime and a nearby Aldi store is a fairly good substitute for Costco if you are single person and have trouble using up the mass quantities of product bought at a warehouse club.
