In order to summarize and systematize the information gained in recent years, it seems appropriate to make a critique of the existing literature. First, we carry out a narrative systematic review of the literature on the topic. Subsequently, using only the empirical contributions which provide estimates of consumer willingness to pay for quality attributes including a measure of the goodness of the estimation (20 papers with 78 estimates), a meta-analysis was conducted to synthesize the empirical results obtained.
