To hate these type of answers on Amazon?

This wasn't my question, but still. What's the fucking point?!

Yes! There are so many of them.

‘5 stars. I haven’t tried it / read it / given it to the recipient yet / but it loooks good.’ Why comment then?!

YANBU. And the 'I haven't read it yet so can't say' or 'it was a gift so I don't know'. Why answer the fecking question then?
I've even seen reviews like that.

It’s because amazon emails and ask people questions about stuff they’ve bought. Often these people are my parents and don’t realise it’s public so reply like it’s a personal question....

Yes!! Me and DH always laugh at these. WHY are people answering these questions?!

I really want to know if it tumble dries or not. So am especially annoyed

They receive it as an email so think you have personally chosen to ask them personally
