Bath & Unwind is a premium online beauty retailer offering skincare, haircare, and wellness products from brands around the world. It operates as part of the Koan ecommerce portfolio, alongside 8 other beauty and grooming brand stores.

The challenge

Migrating 30,000+ reviews, including photos and videos, without losing any of the customer trust built over years.

Beauty shoppers often read several reviews before trying a new skincare or haircare product. Reviews weren't just a feature for Bath & Unwind. They were the single most important trust signal on every product page.

Volume at scale
Over 30,000 reviews with photos and video testimonials, all needed to transfer without loss.
Media preservation
Customer photos and video reviews had to carry over, not just text.
Zero downtime
Product pages had to keep showing reviews throughout the migration.

For a beauty ecommerce store where reviews drive purchase decisions, losing or hiding reviews during migration could directly impact conversions.

The moment it clicked
A review platform built for tens of thousands of reviews, without slowing down product pages.

Bath & Unwind needed infrastructure that could handle the scale while keeping the customer experience fast and authentic.

Dave Telford, Founder, Bath & Unwind
Customer reviews are one of the most important trust signals for our store. We had more than 30,000 reviews, and many included photos and videos. Migrating them without losing anything was critical, and WiserReview made that possible while keeping our product pages fast.
Dave Telford
Founder, Bath & Unwind
Dave started his career at Rolls-Royce working in jet engine design. Deciding that life in a large corporation wasn't his calling, he set out to build his own business. Together with co-founder Lee, he launched their first brand. A year later Bath & Unwind was born.
