Previous post: Filter for Items Sold by Amazon.com

Even fewer know this trick. It's possible to sort an Amazon search by total number of reviews, instead of just the average review.

Here's how to do it:

1. Search for something on Amazon.
2. Select a department that matches what you're looking for.
3. Sort the results by average customer review.
4. In the URL, replace: 'review-rank' with 'review-count-rank'.

For example, change:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=mouse&i=computers&s=review-rank

to:

https://www.amazon.com/s?k=mouse&i=computers&s=review-count-rank

Your results should now be sorted by the total number of reviews, which I find has much greater signal than the average review.

If this didn't work, you probably didn't select a department. Sometimes it doesn't show up in search results, so you might have to try different search terms.
