    Did you ever figure this out? I need to do the same thing.

    GOT IT!

    In Disqus version 2.74, open disqus.php and go to line 149. It currently has:

    $replace = get_option('disqus_replace');

    if ( is_feed() )                       { return false; }
    if ( 'draft' == $post->post_status )   { return false; }
    if ( !get_option('disqus_forum_url') ) { return false; }
    else if ( 'all' == $replace )          { return true; }

    Add the following new line before all of those “if” statements:

    if ( is_singular('product') ) { return false; }

    Save and re-upload the file and you can now leave reviews on products without disabling Disqus!

    Oops. My bad. That wasn’t the right code. That will show the reviews area, but will still prevent reviews from posting.

    So add the following line instead of what I previously said to add:
    if ( 'product' == get_post_type() ) { return false; }
