Amazon Review (Revised 2)



A typical Amazon review usually discusses the product in term of the experience the owner had with the product. A reviewer rates the product depending on the positives and negatives of the experience with the product. This selected Amazon review does not exemplify a review that informs potential customers of their experience. The individual uses the milk product as an element in the story the reviewer writes. The reviewer most likely wrote the review for an entertainment purpose as the review does not rate the product, but a situation involving the product. In the review, the reviewer states that,” he always brought home milk on Friday… And me? Well, I’ve gone soy.” To justify this claim, the reviewer then reveals that, “there was that Friday, the terrible Friday that would ruin every Friday for the rest of my life… That was when I knew. He was tired of this life with me, tired of bring home the Tuscan Whole Milk, 1 Gallon, 128 fl oz.” The focus of an informative review should be the product, but the product only plays as a clue in the story the reviewer writes, so it does not fit the outline of an informative review. The review focuses on the breakup of the woman with her husband instead of the milk product.

The review doesn’t target people interested in the product, but it does target people who are curios at the type of review this milk product has. People do not typically order fresh food on Amazon, so reviews for the product typically focus on creative endeavors and how they cleverly include the milk product.
