Hello everyone,
What do you think about using the phrase rotten in a product reviews website, eg: rotten table, rotten box, etc?
I'm not a native English speaker, so I don't know if it was a good idea or not.

I would not use the word rotten in a domain name.

Definition of rotten: state of decay, very bad.

It does not look like a good idea.

depends, are you writing reviews of bad products? Than sure. If you're going for irony, It doesn't work over the Internet. Most people don't understand irony (especially with cultural barriers).

I wouldn't do that at all.
