This tutorial shows how to scrape Amazon UK reviews into CSV with the Amazon Review Scraper for UK template for UScraper. You will import the workflow, replace the sample ASIN, confirm the export path, run one validation product, and audit the rows before collecting more review pages.
Before you start
Prerequisites and policy checks
You need UScraper installed as a local desktop app, the free JSON template, one Amazon.co.uk product ASIN you are allowed to research, and a folder where CSV exports can be saved. Start with one product, not a category or a bulk ASIN list. Amazon review pages can change by region, cookie state, account state, stock status, review availability, and anti-abuse response.
This guide is for supervised exports from pages you can inspect in a normal browser. It is not a guide to bypass CAPTCHA, sign-in prompts, account pages, checkout flows, or access controls. Before using any amazon uk review scraper, review Amazon UK's Conditions of Use and Sale, Amazon's customer review guidance, and the current source rules for your project.
Technical access is not permission. Keep batches modest, document why the review data is being collected, and use an approved API or licensed data provider when the export feeds a production system.
Workflow shape
What the Amazon UK review scraper does
The JSON export is the workflow contract. It sets the browser size, opens Amazon.co.uk for a cookie warmup, accepts the cookie prompt when the expected control appears, sets locale-related cookies, opens the product detail page for ASIN B00284AO0C, scrolls to the review area, and checks whether visible review rows exist. If product-page review rows render, Structured Export writes them first.
The second half of the workflow navigates through Amazon UK /product-reviews/ URLs for the same ASIN with pageNumber=1 through pageNumber=10. Each page gets a wait, a review-row existence check, and a Structured Export step. If rows are unavailable, the loop continues instead of forcing a broken export.

Use the Amazon Review Scraper for UK as the download path rather than rebuilding blocks from this article. The template carries the editable selectors, waits, product-page fallback, pagination URLs, CSV filename, and append-mode export configuration.

How to scrape Amazon UK reviews to CSV
Import the template
Open Amazon Review Scraper for UK, download the JSON, and import it into UScraper.
Replace the sample ASIN
Swap B00284AO0C in the product page URL and review pageNumber URLs with the Amazon UK ASIN you are allowed to research.
Confirm the CSV path
In Structured Export, set the save folder, keep headers enabled, and choose whether to keep amazon-review-scraper-for-uk.csv or rename it for the project.
Run one product first
Watch the browser warm up Amazon.co.uk, handle the cookie branch, load the product page, scroll to reviews, and attempt the review-page loop.
Audit before scaling
Compare review ratings, names, titles, content, dates, verification flags, helpful votes, and review URLs against the visible browser page.
Because the export uses append mode, rerunning the same ASIN can duplicate rows. For a clean validation run, change the filename or remove the previous test CSV. For ongoing monitoring, keep a small run note with ASIN, source URLs, date, browser state, CSV filename, and any selector edits.
Validation
Validate the Amazon reviews to CSV export
Open the CSV before treating the job as finished. Sort by asin, reviewer_name, date, and review_title. Then open several review_url values and compare the exported text against the browser. Blank fields are not automatically failures: Amazon may hide review images, helpful votes, verification badges, or brand fields for a particular session.
| Symptom | Likely cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Zero rows for the ASIN | CAPTCHA, sign-in redirect, unavailable product, no visible reviews, delayed rendering, or changed review-card markup | Stop the run, inspect the browser state, and rerun one ASIN only after rows are visible. |
| Product context exports but review text is blank | Structured Export ran before review cards hydrated or Amazon changed the review body selector | Keep the waits, add a longer wait if needed, and retest one page. |
| Duplicate reviews appear | Append mode reused an old CSV or the same review page ran twice | Start with a clean file and dedupe by asin, review_url, reviewer_name, and date. |
| Only product-page reviews export | Amazon did not expose review pagination in the current session | Check whether review pages are accessible in the browser before editing selectors. |
| Dates or country values look odd | Amazon changed the review-date wording | Update the date parser after comparing several live rows. |
Alternatives
UScraper vs APIs, Python, Octoparse, and hosted scrapers
Use UScraper when the job is a supervised CSV export: a visible browser, editable workflow blocks, local file output, and a validation pass before scale.
If you are comparing the best Amazon review scraper for a research workflow, start with custody and maintenance. UScraper is strongest when an analyst wants an inspectable local desktop run and a CSV they can audit. A custom scraper gives more control, but the team owns selector drift, pagination, challenge pages, retries, and export formatting. An Octoparse Amazon scraper alternative or Apify-style actor may fit cloud-first teams, but you still need to review run location, pricing, data retention, and how quickly selectors can be updated.
For approved product-data access, review Amazon Product Advertising API documentation as a separate route. It is useful to compare official product-data options with scraping, but it is not a substitute for validating every review field this workflow exports.
FAQ
Amazon UK review scraping FAQ
Amazon UK reviews may be publicly visible, but automated collection can still be limited by Amazon terms, robots directives, copyright, privacy law, marketplace policies, and local regulations. Use only data you have a documented basis to collect, keep runs modest, and do not bypass CAPTCHA, sign-in walls, or access controls.
