Every item on Amazon has a star rating from customer reviews. Here's how it's calculated.
Amazon offers a star ranking for every item on its website, which takes customer ratings of the product into account. The ratings are not a straight average of the product like they may appear to be. Amazon instead uses a machine-learning model that takes into account when the ratings were made and whether they were made by a reviewer with a verified purchase.
