Amazon 4-star Store Opens in New York

Tomorrow, [27th September] we’re opening Amazon 4-star, a new physical store where everything for sale is rated 4 stars and above, is a top seller, or is new and trending on Amazon.com. The store is located in one of New York’s most vibrant neighborhoods—SoHo—on Spring Street between Crosby and Lafayette Streets.

Amazon 4-star is built around our customers— what they’re buying and what they’re loving. Everything in the store is rated 4 stars and above, is a top seller, or is new and trending on Amazon.com. We also have local features like “Trending Around NYC” and “Top Selling Around NYC” that make it fun and easy for customers to shop. 
In Amazon 4-star customers can test-drive Amazon devices along with smart home accessories that work with Alexa—you can ask Alexa to turn on the light or lock the door. Customers can also shop other popular consumer electronics like headphones, speakers, fitness tech, wearables, computers, and more.

Here is our feature “New and Trending Toys.”In our Home and Kitchen section, customers can shop small appliances along with “Cooks’ Tools,” “Bar and Party Supplies,” and “Quirky Kitchen Gifts.”

We created Amazon 4-star to be a place where customers can discover products they will love. Amazon 4-star’s selection is a direct reflection of our customers—what they’re buying and what they’re loving.

We started with some of the most popular categories on Amazon.com including devices, consumer electronics, kitchen, home, toys, books, and games, and chose only the products that customers have rated 4 stars and above, or are top sellers, or are new and trending.

Today, the average rating of all the products in Amazon 4-star is 4.4 stars, and collectively, the products in store have earned more than 1.8 million 5-star customer reviews.

Throughout the store there are features like “Most-Wished-For,” a collection of products that are most added to Amazon.com Wish Lists; “Trending Around NYC,” hot products that NYC-area customers are buying on Amazon.com; “Frequently Bought Together”; and “Amazon Exclusives.” These features, along with customer review cards with quotes from actual customer reviews, make it fun and easy to shop.
