Illustrative data: This illustrative comparison ranks only the brands in this category for which a public Reddit corpus was collected. Thread counts and sentiment splits are computed from those collected threads; sentiment labels are derived from title keywords rather than human review. It is a sample of public discussion, not a complete or representative measure, and not a quality ranking of the products themselves.

Ranking method
net sentiment = positive share − negative share
sample weight = min(1, ln(n + 1) ÷ ln(51))
raw signal = net sentiment × confidence × sample weight
Reddit Score = 10 × (0.5 + raw signal ÷ 2)
The audit score is shown for transparency, but the public table keeps the raw stance shares and confidence more prominent.
