As in you can't emotionally "get past" it? Or you didn't see the "skip ad" link?

Note that the most helpful review is someone who did not buy one. Same with the second. And the third.

Reviews are much more scattered if you filter by "Verified purchase only". It's interesting that this drops the number of reviews from 165 to 104 for a product which is designed for and presumably sold only on Amazon.
I'm not necessarily suggesting these reviews are shady, but given the other aspects of Amazon that this company tracks, it would seem reasonable to suggest they've figured out a way to track influential reviewers likely to give them a positive review.
