Whether you're shopping for electronics, cosmetics, clothing, or something else, more and more women are turning to product reviews to help in their purchasing decisions. Some are looking up reviews before heading to the store, while others are looking up reviews while already in the store!
We recently conducted a survey where we asked you, our members, to share your thoughts on product reviews and how they influence your purchases.
Check out some of the results below. Do you agree... or not? Tell us and enter for the chance to win a $25 Visa gift card!

It's interesting how people seem to do more research on toys and food than cars.
I agree with checking product reviews. Real people are more likely to be honest about a products' flaws than a manufacturer will be.
I read them, but you can usually tell when there's exaggeration or insincere comments, so I take them with a grain of salt.
Seems pretty spot on. Only thing is "where" are they getting the reviews... some sites are much more reliable (like SheSpeaks) than others.
I agree but I like to judge for myself before I buy.
I agree with all of these. I am more inclined to purchase an item if I've seen it advertised on a blogger's website with real-life photos. Also, I am a true sucker for Facebook ads advertising a super sale, free shipping or coupon code. I have bought several things that way.
I agree with these results as a consumer it helps me choose a product more thoughtfully.
I'm constantly looking at reviews and opinions of others online about a particular product prior to buying it. I don't necessarily do it while shopping in store, but always online as I have more time to browse.
I agree with the results. But, I check pros and cons and ultimately make my own decision.
I agree, I have absolutely been influence by reviews...to buy a product I was thinking about, or not to buy after reading negative product reviews.
I do agree with the results as it applies to me as well.
I definitely agree with the results. I always check reviews for high price items that I am interested in buying.
As someone who reads reviews and takes the time to really review products, I definitely agree.
I go off of my gut more often than listed, but it is close
I agree with all the polls. I always check reviews when I am making a big purchase.
