The typical zinc product on our shelf scores 4.6 out of 5, measured across 53 rated products. This one comes in at 4.8. That puts it in the top quarter of the shelf. Most things here rate well, so what matters is the gap to the pack rather than the number on its own, and the gap is real. Weighted for review volume, we place it first on this shelf.
That score rests on 5,900 ratings. The median for this shelf is 597. A score built on that many opinions is hard to shift and hard to game, which is why we weight review volume rather than ranking on stars alone.
On money, this sits in the middle third of a shelf running from £3.64 to £81.00, with the midpoint around £12.99. That's where most sensible buys land, neither the cheapest thing on the shelf nor the one you pay a name for.
