While consumer reviews for weight loss products are a great resource, you have to take each one for what they are really worth. There are always going to be negative reviews from disgruntled consumers, but you have to pinpoint exactly what their complaint is. You can often rule negatives out from people who obviously used the product wrong or had unrealistic expectations of their results. What you want to find are products that are well received by the majority of purchasers with just a few token negative reviews.
Finding chat and message boards dedicated to weight loss issues is another way to get firsthand opinions and experiences on how well a product works. You can find these chats and discussions by going to Google or your favorite search engine and simply typing in the product's name. For most products, there will be some links to chat sites where discussions have been held about that product. You never know, you may even find similar products that are actually better but which you don't know about yet!
Whatever you do, don't trust consumer reviews or testimonials on a product's own website. A scammer can always make those up so balance them with reviews found through impartial sources. If you are still in doubt or just want to make absolutely certain that the product is not a scam, get some details such as the ingredients or a picture of the exercise equipment and take it into your doctor. Most doctors will have some information on most products and can tell you what may work and what is a waste of your money. If your doctor has never heard of the product before, he can at least look at the picture or look at the ingredients to see if it might be effective or not.
