I read the reviews and felt that the storytelling is a lil sus, some of the reviews following the 3 themes of "was uncertain, got it from friends, found it good for cooking"... and finally the paragraphs look a little too neat, so I ran the text thru gptzero:

Look at the background blur in the reviewer's pic too

Hmmm, interesting. For better or worse, I also can't find trustpilot reviews for them.

PS: This doesn't confirm anything more than AI was likely used in the review generation process (it could have been to merely text for SEO, or could have been done for other reasons)
PS 2: Trustpilot reviews for a kitchen company had more paragraph variance, and the topics didn't flow too 'perfectly'.

Reviewers picture is fake for sure. One obvious issue is the lighting on the head. You will notice that is it all lit from the front on both sides , and on top of that the sun is behind him so he would have shadows there instead.

The current state of AI at this point, just look at the shadows and lighting in the images and you can pick up if it is fake :)

Yep, the image being fake was a strong giveaway, even without the use of gptzero (which merely confirms my suspicions).
