What Consumers Are Saying
Across all categories, the most common themes in positive reviews include product quality, fast shipping, and responsive customer service. The most common concerns relate to delivery times, product descriptions not matching expectations, and return policy clarity.
Companies with the highest ratings tend to respond to negative reviews within 24 hours and maintain a response rate above 80%. This suggests that active engagement with customer feedback is strongly correlated with higher overall ratings.
