298 reviews is a smaller sample than category leaders like the Arrow PT50 at 3,000 or Upholstery ST12 at 15,500, so the 4.4-star average, while solid, rests on a thinner base.
What buyers say
A 4.4-star average across 298 reviews, with 100 units sold last month, points to steady but modest demand relative to the bigger sellers in this lineup.
