Let’s be honest, the internet is a haven for pranksters and jokesters.
Although Amazon is primarily known for its helpful and insightful reviews, when the clock strikes midnight, it transforms into a digital comedy club, teeming with amateur comedians seeking laughter. Many individuals utilize Amazon customer reviews to poke fun at some of the most ridiculous products online, a phenomenon known as “customer review comedy.” Today, we’re showcasing the top 10 funniest Amazon products and their accompanying hilarious reviews.

The Three Wolf Moon Shirt is arguably the internet’s most popular joke product on Amazon. Since its debut on the platform in 2008, it has garnered over 2,790 reviews and has become its own meme.. The shirt’s viral fame led to a 2,300% increase in sales. While the reviews may be for laughs, those numbers are no joke! Who could have imagined that two wolves were great, but three? Could this be paradise? Reviewers are amazed by the shirt’s mystical qualities.

2. Tuscan Whole Milk
Tuscan Whole Milk, 1 Gallon, 128 fl oz – there’s a certain poetic ring to it, don’t you think? Other Amazon reviewers seem to agree, awarding it a 4-star rating despite its exorbitant price tag of $45.00 for a gallon of milk. Listed ingredients: “secret.” This peculiar Amazon product has attracted a slew of humorous reviews. One reviewer composed a fantastic Edgar Allan Poe-inspired ode to Tuscan Whole Milk, which is easily one of the best reviews on Amazon. Here’s a sneak peek – read it in all its glory.

3. Bic For Her Pens
It’s unclear whether Bic’s concept to create a line of pens specifically for women (featuring a slimmer design and—gasp—pretty colors!) was a joke from the start. One can’t help but wonder if they were ever meant to be taken seriously. Regardless of the rationale behind their initial launch, the Bic’s For Her Ball Pens quickly sparked outrage among internet users, who flooded the product’s Amazon page with sarcastic reviews.

4. Samsung Ultra HD UHDTV
Measuring in at a massive 85 inches with “4K Ultra HD” Samsung’s UN85S9 HDTV is an extravagant television with a price tag to match – just under $40,000. It’s no surprise that this over-the-top piece of technology has become a prime target for internet mockery. Numerous humorous reviews exist for this product, with most poking fun at the TV’s exorbitant cost. One reviewer comments:
Another writes…
But the best review by far—and one of the funniest Amazon reviews ever (in my humble opinion, at least)—comes from James O. Thach, an Amazon Top 500 Reviewer, who shares a heartbreaking tale of the sacrifices he made to acquire this Samsung TV.
The review continues with an update after Amanda’s return. It’s a comedic masterpiece and worth reading in its entirety on Amazon..
5. Banana Slicer
Oh Hutzler 571 Banana Slicer, has there ever been a more pointless kitchen gadget? Perhaps not, but your absurdity has earned you a wry 3.5-star rating and a collection of funny, fabricated Amazon reviews.
6. How to Avoid Huge Ships
Who wouldn’t want to learn how to steer clear of massive ships? Without the invaluable knowledge imparted in Captain John W. Trimmer’s How to Avoid Huge Ships (Second Edition), you could be casually strolling down the street one day and BAM! You’re struck by a ship. It happens, folks - it’s the reality we live in. Don’t remain uninformed and vulnerable – safeguard your loved ones from these maritime behemoths! Some commend the book for its practical advice on avoiding large vessels and its role in initiating conversations about responsible ship usage with younger generations.
Others regret ever reading it.
7. Hairbo Sugar Free Candy
Haribo gummy bears hold a special place in many hearts, often hailed as THE most delectable gummy candy on the market. However, things take a turn when you opt for the sugar-free variety advertised here. One man shares his harrowing tale of gastrointestinal distress.
8. Horse Head Mask
It wouldn’t be a stretch to claim that this horse head mask is humanity’s most significant contribution to society since sliced bread (seriously, think about it—it was just “bread” until someone brilliant came along). This unassuming headwear transforms the ordinary into Salvador Dalí-esque surrealism.
The highlight of these hilarious Amazon reviews is undoubtedly the customer product photos, which are so funny they deserve a place in a best-selling coffee table book.
9. Diamond HDMI Cord
Behold an HDMI cable so sophisticated that you could propose to your significant other with it! The diamond braided HDMI cable presents a novel way to bankrupt yourself while enjoying the pinnacle of high-definition entertainment. Forget about the fact that it costs five times as much as the television—the enhanced picture quality is totally worth it. Let’s not forget the valuable lessons learned from Leonardo DiCaprio in the 2006 blockbuster Blood Diamond.
10. Blue Rock Candy
We, the heartbroken fans of Breaking Bad, continue to mourn the loss of our beloved show (Magnets! Science, bitch!). Thankfully, Amazon reviews provide solace, offering us glimpses of Heisenberg and his devoted addicts.
And because I won’t rest until it’s performed in a middle school somewhere…
