This posting by leothelion offering yet another interpretation of reviews.
It says "excellent reviews".
Misleading: Despite the numeric review rating of 4.7 (which could indeed be called "excellent"), there are only 11 reviews which is a small sample and thus prone to a large error margin.
Let me repeat from my previous posting.
gives a numeric rating, based upon all the reviews.
If bensbargains gave that rating as well as the total number of reviews, it would be significantly more useful.
"This got an rating of 4.7 with 11 reviews".
While it would still be a good idea to look at the review score distribution, the rating+review count gives a good summary and would be a lot more helpful than "excellent reviews".
