Review Summary

Chrome Reader Mode is praised for delivering a clean, distraction-free reading experience with solid customization and ease of use. Users appreciate its simplicity, smooth performance, and that it is free. However, multiple reviews note issues like the toolbar covering the scrollbar, an unwanted 'rate me' banner, and the absence of an option to widen text display, which affects usability and screen space efficiency.
