## Customer feedback

Aggregate customer ratings lean positive, with most ratings in the five-star category, but a smaller share are lower ratings. This offers a limited overall sentiment signal rather than evidence about particular features or performance. No customer-comment summary is available, so the ratings cannot establish how the brake, retrieve or durability perform in practice.
