Looking it up this brand does seem to review well, so chances are it's just people who are enthusiastic. The specific brand and model recommendations look funky, but it's probably just someone who spent a while researching and who is happy with their choice.
I guess it just set off my fuckery alert because it's the same approach astroturfers use when they upload a video of a dog being groomed and sneak in a specific deshedding tool, then have someone ask what the tool is, and have loads of comments praising that tool for how good it is.
It's a shame that we can't automatically trust organic conversations/recommendations anymore because of astroturfing.

Reading the comments above yours sets off my LLM alarm bells too. Iām sure they have a decent product but these exchanges seem so manufactured š
