"Some of these amateur reviewers just like to see themselves using gushing, florid language in print to convince themselves that they can write."
And most enjoy the perks of industry accommodation pricing. In other words, the manufacturer lends them the product, the writer publishes a glowing review, then the manufacture allows the reviewer to buy the product at a hugely discounted price available to nobody else.
No wonder there are so many online wannabee reviewers in this hobby. ;-)
