What makes a great review?
That's a tough question as there is no one single thing that makes a great review. Try and include some personal reflections in your reviews. Simple pros and cons are great but to make a review stand out, you'll need work out what made your experience unique. But remember you are writing for someone else, someone you probably don't know, so try and keep the information useful to all.
