Review moderation

Every review on The Blind Bridge is read by a human before it appears. Trust is the business.

How it works

1. You submit. Your review goes into a moderation queue — it is not public yet.
2. We read. A moderator checks it against our standards: is it a real product experience? Does it follow the blind-specific review criteria? Is it free of spam, abuse, and fake claims?
3. It goes live — or it doesn’t. Approved reviews appear on the product page, newest first. Rejected reviews get a reason: not a real product experience, duplicate, or policy violation. You can revise and resubmit.

The review criteria

Every review must speak to what blind shoppers actually need to know:

• Screen reader compatibility — does it work with VoiceOver, TalkBack, JAWS, or NVDA?
• Solo setup — can a blind person set it up alone, with no sighted help?
• Tactile markings — can you operate it by touch?
• Sensory details — what does it sound, feel, and weigh like?

Verified owner badges

Reviews from purchases made through our buy links carry a Verified Owner badge. It means the reviewer actually bought the thing — not that we agree with them.

Report a review

Readers can flag any live review. A flagged review returns to the queue for re-moderation — no review is above re-checking.
