| The ratings are explained by the chart below.
We intend our reviewers to be critical, and not to arbitrarily assign high
values-- in which case all of the ratings become meaningless. However,
because many of our reviewers tend to focus on the items they like
the most, you may find many reviews with a rating of 3 stars or higher.
In some cases our reviewers may assign a rating using a different scale (perhaps a 10 point scale). In these cases we will translate this rating onto our 4 star scale using our best judgement. |
