I tried the extended for the first time, and I really like it!! I feel that it pushes to give better responses and more information. I think that I'm only going to use it from now on.

extended is nice for a lot of things but sometimes shorter is better.

extended - this format usually, depending on the reviewer, gives more useful details.

I picked other. It depends on how the product is and what mood I'm in.

Extended:
good- a grid, helps organization, good for products with lots of things going for it, if I get blocked I can just go back to that box, you can save each box when you are finished then but also go back and edit later
bad- feels like it takes FOREVER due to all the boxes, minimal toys are a pain because you can't talk as much in some boxes, my extended is always longer so I feel like no one reads them.

Standard:
good- open and don't feel pressured to write multiple sentaces in something I could say in a few words, easier to check for errors, less time consuming for me, good for products that doesn't have much to talk about
bad- I will forget things sometimes, the word limit, they are shorter and I only like to put pictures after paragraphs (so less pictures), would not have been an easy format to first start working on

As a reviewer and consumer, I loathe the extended template reviews. I understand they are needed for the product page, for the DR reviews, but in all other instances, they drive me batshit.

I do not want to read about material, cleaning, size info over and over and over and over again. I don't want to have to scroll through thousands of words of filler info that I already know. I want to know how you liked the toy, how it worked for you, what EXTRA info you have for me that isn't already on the product page.

I like blog reviews best of all but, if I can't have that, I prefer the standard. Absolutely.

I like Standard better, but extended seems necessary for a good rating.

I like both.

Both have their places. If I am not too sure how or what to say in a review, I'll use the extended. But if I know exactly what I want to say, Ill go for standard.

It's not so much that I prefer one over the other, but that I have to use the standard template, as I write lingerie reviews almost exclusively. There is no choice of extended template for those, so I have my own format that I use. I do sometimes run out of room if it is a particularly detailed review.

Extended, it's more detailed and organized!

I always use Extended--I find that I am not nearly as descriptive if I try to do one with Standard, I'll often forget to include necessary details. Extended helps me organize my writing a little better.

Standard gives you more freedom to create your own categories.

I always use standard, I've never taken to the extended template that well. Though I would like a greater word limit in standard.

I like a detailed review and when it has pics that's even better

I like the extended reviews, when I'm writing them it helps me remember everything I need to put in it and keep it organized. I like when people use it because it helps me find the information I'm looking for, Stuff that gets written in every single review such as material safety, cleaning, etc. I tend to skip over certain sections when I'm reading since I already know that stuff. Having the information split up like that helps me to skip over information that I don't need.

I like the extended reviews because it helps to easily organize ideas and it feels easier for the users to find certain information they may be looking for.

I just started recently but I prefer to use the extended review. It does take a long while to fill out and check over, but it's rather helpful. The separate boxes for use/material/ect make it easier to organize, and helps to remind me to add any details I would have forgotten in the standard. I do try to use the standard if I'm reviewing something I don't have much to say about, but I still try to follow the extended template even then. Besides, the extended reviews are pleasant for readers as well. The main reason I started using this website is because there's a lot of information and ratings. It's very useful for some items to have a long detailed review about something before you purchase it after all.
