I will read them and even if they have bad reviews and I still really like the look or functions I will get it anyway.

Always read reviews, helps influence the purchase

I read the reviews and then I reread them on a different day and ponder a while before buying. And then I read them again after I've used the product a few times. When the reviewer's opinion matches my own, I check out what their favorites are. That is how I discovered fun factory toys, and many other toys I have ended up loving!

I usually try to read a few good ones and a few bad ones. That way I can compare all the pros and cons. If one person says the it doesn't perform well but no one else in the other 6 or 7 reviews doesn't, then it prolly would work for the average user.

Always, Eden is the only site that provides reviews the way they do and it's incredible.

I read the reviews, but the reviews don't always influence my purchase. There are some things I just want because I like the way they look, or I like the brand, or whatever... Sometimes in those cases I wish I'd listened to the negative reviews, but...

If there are a lot of reviews (Think the Mimi or some of the lubes) I'll read a few good and a few bad, but if there are less than 10 I'll read them all for sure!

I always find the reviews very helpful and a good resource to use before purchasing an item.

I always read the reviews, unless it is a new product that has no reviews yet, and I really, really want to try it (usually lingerie).

There are actually a lot of sex toy sites that hire reviewers that do the same thing as Eden.

Definitely! It's incredibly helpful, seeing what other people think of the product, what they liked and didn't like, if they feel it's worth buying or if they regret the purchase.

They've definitely stopped me from a getting a few things since a lot of people had the same complaint.

I usually read all the reviews for a luxury vibrator... but not always for Fun factory items as I've been buying Fun Factory for years and have great faith in their products.

I always read the reviews!! However, every now and again I will ignore them and usually regret it.
