I don't wanna hate on this magazine bc I think it's fine, I just cannot believe how incompetent the people who control it's distribution are. This is the third year they've re-subscribed me and raised the rates without any notification. Every time I try to call and cancel it they tell me they can't. I'm literally deleting my Amazon account today. I'm normally pretty patient with customer service bc they have a very hard job but seriously... Plenty good articles tho ;p


title: men journal review

text: this magazine is ok. got it thinking that it would be relevant for me. It isnt really. There is some relevant info but its mostly sporty with ads for cologne.


title: Good mag

text: Like it


title: RIP OFF !!!!

text: a Complete rip off I ordered this months ago and have yet to receive First Issue  . When I contacted them I was told they need proof of purchase  so I sent them a copy of my invoice . A week later get a response telling me that there records show  I am wrong and it's my fault , I either entered  the wrong address or the post office is stealing my mail  Never Again  RIP OFF !!!!!


title: BAD !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

text: SINGED UP FOR 1 YEAR AND THEY  RENEWED AND CHARGED MY CREDIT CARD FOR 2ND YEAR WITHOUT MY  OK. I LOOKED AT WHAT I SIGNED FOR AND DID NOT SEE AUTOMATIC RENEWALS.


title: Men's Journal Magazine

text: This is one the best mens magazine on the market. Very informative and lots of good articles about different topics.


title: Not just pretty pictures.

text: I love this magazine.  I've enjoyed it for years.  I find it young, fresh.  It often includes homes done by newlyweds or young families with ingenuity  and style.  I keep thinking I've outgrown it  -- my home is looking more and more Traditional Homes or Southern Accents -- but I have to say it inspires me.  A little urban slant.  Creative.  Good recipes.  Hands-on.  Not just pretty pictures.


title: Details In A Nutshell (3 1/2 - 4 stars)

text: Details is a men's magazine like Cosmopolitan is for women.  The contents of Details is like that of other men's magazines like GQ and Esquire, but Detials has a tendency to have more articles on movie stars (such as in the May 05' edition with articles about movie stars: Mat Dillon, and Mark Wahlberg)along with articles on politics/recent news, etc.  BUT, Details also has articles on: fashion, culture, food and drink, movies, music, books, etc.  Detials magazine is more for individuals who want to know about news/politics among other things than for someone who is more geared towards fashion.


title: GQ In A Nutshell

text: GQ, A.K.A Gentlemen's Quarterly is a men's magazine like Cosmopolitan is to women.  GQ has a broad range of contents in it's magazine from: in-depth articles from movie and rock stars, fashion, food and drink, technology, movies, music, etc.  The magazine gives equal attention to all the contents except fashion which is more abundant throughout the magazines pages.  All in all, GQ is a great men's magazine with plenty of fashion news/tips, and also delves in other men's interests as stated above.


title: Time Machine Subscription?

text:
I ordered my 12 issue subscription to Details on December 30th.  The first issue arrived at the end of January, as expected.  However, they sent me the December issue, with lots of advice about the Holidays.  Within the next two weeks, they sent me the January and February issues.  Basically, they used my subscription as a great excuse to get rid of back issues that they didn't sell on the newsstands.

Don't get me wrong, the magazine itself is great.  I just didn't appreciate them pulling a fast one and making old issues (That I already had purchased on my own) count towards the 12 issues I paid for.


title: One Star

text: sucks (period)


title: One Star

text: way too many ads, and not enough articles.


title: Not what I expected

text: Cologne samples and pages after pages of advertisements featuring waifish men with skinny legs and sunken chests. This is what's passing for a men's magazine these days? The covers are dead good but beyond that, see GQ or Esquire for a magazine with more substance than scent and show. My boyfriend was sorely disappointed in this one.


title: Benjamin Scott

text: Details is best described as more intellectual than Maxim (and it's 20+ clones), but not as pretentions or materialistic as GQ and company.  Excellent subject matter, the best writting of any entertainment magazine in publication, reliable critics, and fashion shoots that are actually interesting and have clothes even I would wear make it the most enjoyable and relevant mag around.  Through and through, Details is THE magazine out today, and probably will be for a long time.  (Plus it is cheap as sin!)


title: Its still good...

text: I was a big fan of Details my freshmen year in college...until new editors came in and changed the format of the magazine I loved.  Smart-eleke remarks were converted into cultured critiques.  Weird photo spreads started to bare striking similarities to photo shots by Vogue.  I no longer felt as if I was getting inside the head of a wise cracking, "hipster" male but being forced to listen to the ponderings of guys who took themselves WAY too seriously.  (Its never cool to try too hard and one GQ is enough.)  But I picked it up again about a year ago and saw that it is slowly coming back to its old style. Its still a good buy.


title: Greatg Magazine with fun interesting info.

text: Enjoy getting this magazine.  Has lot's of stuff for both men and women to read.


title: Not worth the paper it's written on!!

text:
Hi, I am writing this review in an attempt to help you save $10. This magazine is an embarrassment in every angle. It is full of pictures of "sexy" boys/men dressed in cloths no guy with self esteem would ever wear. And pictures is all there is, for you that think there will be something interesting to read, read this: THERE IS NOTHING IN THIS MAGAZINE TO READ!!! The latest issue contains of 48 (forty-eight) pages before you get to this issues contents. The first "article" starts on page 126 (!) and is about "why a man would like to slice of his testicles"! Totally the magazine contains of 260 pages and there is text (letters that forms sentences) on about 40 of them. Besides this, the magazine also has a huge dilemma of being a gay magazine or not.

Well I can go on and on but I won't. Unfortunately I have a subscription and I am going to see if I can get it canceled, I don't even need my money back. Take your $10 and run them in the disposal, it will be more fun to clean out the disposal than "read" this magazine.


title: Awesome Price !!!!

text: You can't beat $5 for an entire year's subscription, that's what one issue will cost you at the store. Very happy with the purchase


title: Magazine

text: Packed with so much information.  I look forward to getting it each time.


title: Curve

text: I absolutely love this magazine.  It's everything I thought and definitely hoped that it would be.  Great for new and the old that enjoy listening and learning about others of their equal.


title: frothy and delightful

text: I love W magazine in all its oversized glory. Its frothy with articles for the affluent, gorgeous photography, celebrity interviews and other frothy delights. It aims for the affluent and its unabashed in doing so. Its amusing that certain people review on Amazon.com with their personal rants that have nothing to do with the product at all. If anyone works hard for their success then why should they be abashed for enjoying the good life and beautiful things? Its these people that W addresses, and its frothy and I'm going to enjoy it for all its frothiness.


title: cool

text:
I subscribed to Details because I'm interested in the male psyche. I also like looking at the male celebrity pictures and the guy models on ads. Its not the most politically correct article on the planet, for one the last page is called "gay or...?" In which the writer tries to uncover if a certain type of person is gay or not, and no conclusion is actually ever given so I suppose its for the reader to decide.

Its a very stereotypical part of the magazine, but beyond that there are cool articles to read from male perspectives. I also enjoy reading the celebrity interviews, in addition they include interviews with female celebrities. I don't agree with everything that is printed here, but certain articles have made me think and I've actually gotten a lot out of it. It helps me understand guys and I do agree with certain opinions. The mag leans toward the liberal and is unabashed in its attitude to do so. I like it a lot, it may  not be for everyone and that's fine.


title: well rounded

text:
I've been reading Glamour for the past three years and it has been a great magazine all around. Glamour covers topics on health, career, finances, sex, relationships, style, etc. Of all the magazines on the newsstands, this one is the most intelligent and savvy for women in their 20s and 30s. Yes there are too many ads like in most magazines, but that's how the media survives, they get their salary mostly from ads. I usually don't mind because I feel that its such a great magazine, that the ads are worth putting up with. I have felt that at times Cosmopolitan is a little too focused on sex and "please your man" articles.

Glamour seems to have found a nice balance and I don't feel that it dumbs down my intelligence at all. I do wish that they would expand beyond the typical articles. I wish that they would include more sections on culture, travel, and technology. Men's magazines include articles on gadgets and tech, and as a woman I enjoy gadgets as well. Its not just a guy thing. Its not a perfect magazine, some issues are better than others, but I feel that at this time Glamour is the best magazine for women right now.


title: Best political analysis magazine, period.

text: The Progressive magazine is by far the best magazine for deep, thoughtful political analysis. I would recommend this magazine to anyone interested in Progressive politics! This magazine doesn't simply tow to the Democratic line, either!


title: Terrible Customer Service from Amazon

text:
I ordered New York Magazine from Amazon over 5 months ago and never received my order.  I sent a customer service request with no response.  I have just sent a second customer service request.

I would not recommend ordering New York Magazine from Amazon.


title: Photography Magazine

text: My daughter has not started receiving the magazine. When will she start getting it. I ordered it in December.  ?????


title: Not the same Magazine of 1995

text: I use to LOVE this magazine because it had very interesting topics. I was disappointed in this subscription.

user_id: AFAASIDIOARILEOZFMEDQEYVIDYA


title: Never received issue

text: Ordered on January and still waiting on my first issue.  I submitted two requests to have this looked into and have not heard from anyone.  Don't bother in subscribing.


title: Hearst did not honor a subscription renewal

text: I received just 5 of 10 issues from my last subscription renewal. Hearst claimed my subscription term ended 6 months prior to my Amazon order. Amazon refunded the purchase price and I won't be renewing.


title: Havn't received full subscription.  V

text: Shipped a couple magazines and now I havn't seen any since November 2021.  Placed order in September 2021.  A lot of money for 2 magazines!!!


title: Good price

text:
Six dollars is a good price but five dollars would be better.
It seems if you wait long enough you can get the low prices.
Popular Mechanics is still a good magazine. I like the how to pojects.


title: I did not request autosignup

text:
I use my card to purchase large items I did not authorize ANY automatic renewals.
This caused me to recind use of my credit card for amazon purchases and I have attemped to cancell the order 2 to 3 weeks ago.
I have not recieved notificationd of this happenning.
YES I an less than pleased


title: Popular Mecanics

text: Read it all in short time.  Informative but limited number of subjects in this volume. Recommend it for light reading.

I like this magazine. It brings new things, inventions and developments.
I like the lay out and the fact that there are not enough ads to discourage
me from reading it, like a lot of other mags have to do keep publishing.
A little (or a lot)similar to Popular Science but different enough to keep getting it.

title: Five Stars

text: good reading


title: Still waiting

text: Ordered this mag over 7 weeks ago and still havent received anything. However it didnt take them long to cash my payment, maybe a week. I'l never do this again.


title: Interesting articles!

text: Interesting articles, I like how there is a theme for each magazine.  Had a board game review, bought a suggested one for Christmas (Tiny Towns) and we all are having a blast playing it. Glad I read it.


title: No longer a mechanical enthusiast magazine.

text: The magazine has moved away from complex projects and mechanical concepts. It instead panders to non technical people with non mechanical related articles. This magazine may appeal to elementary to middle school aged kids, but is no longer appealing to mechanical enthusiast adults. The magazine has lost its roots. I am canceling my subscription after 20 years, and will no longer be reading this magazine.


title: Too much too soon!

text: I ordered a six month trial version and the very next month they made me renew for the additional year.  A bit too pushy for me, I will not do this again!


title: Error made

text: Instead of extending my current subscription, instead an order was placed for a new subscription, and now am receiving 2 issues each month instead of one.  My current subscription was NOT extended and we are very unhappy with this.  What can you do to correct this issue?


title: Great Mag!

text: Provides knowledge!


title: Wrong on even the simple things

text: I started getting this magazine in the mail.  I still don't know why.  I tried to read some of the articles.  The topics are "dumbed" down and even then flat out wrong.  Please if you don't know that Hertz is one cycle per second then look it up rather than making something up.  DC (direct current) comes in voltages other than the 12, 24, or 48 volts implied on page 71 of the May 2019 issue.


title: Very interesting!

text: We love this magazine. It is very eclectic in it's subject matter and we have really enjoyed the variety.


title: Five Stars

text: easy to read and a lot of pictures


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine


title: Subscription to Popular Mechanics

text: I chose this rating because the subscription went through without a hitch.  The price is great and my husband enjoys the magazine so much each month.  It keeps him up on new happenings in many areas of mechanics and technology.  He has subacribed to Popular Mechanics for probably 8-10 years.


title: I enjoy the magazine but . . .

text: The magazine articles are interesting and enjoyable.  The articles cover a range of topics such as automobiles, space exploration, electronics, power tool comparisons, how things work, and tips on how to build things.  The style of writing is a little too casual and homey.  My biggest disappointment is the frequent renewal requests, more like demands, that come in the mail.  This is despite their promise that only a reminder and a single invoice will be sent at the end of my subscription.  Instead, I've received numerous invoices starting six months in advance of expiration.  These are invoices stating that my account is now due and I'm risking cancellation.


title: Crammed with information

text: Magazine arrived ahead of time. Amazon still had great delivery service. The magazine is fun to read with lots of great information for all of us that just need to know all the little things that we can do to make our life simpler. If you are big on DIY tasks, or hands-on activities then get this. All the little tips and guidance on projects makes you feel like you have your own expert to guide you to the end.


title: Amazon

text: I have ordered several things from Amazon. Have been over all pleased,but if you order one item they do not send a receipt with that order and the prisons will not accept anything without a receipt. So if you are dealing with the prison population ask them to send receipt for every order. Also ordered a Popular Mechanics on the 12th of Feb 2011 and it has still not arrived 5-2-11.Have emailed several times and each time they would email me back and would not say what the problem was just that they got my email.I finally was emailed that they would send it out and they would change my dates on the one year sub. Our son is suppose to get it 5-3-11. I am upset that he has had to wait this long to get his order.It is my understanding that even though I ordered it from Amazon it was another company that sent the order. I will always make sure the order is only from Amazon. I thought it was their web site and everything ordered was from Amazon.Make sure you check to see who you are ordering from,as I feel Amazon is a good company.

text: Great publication.  Never gets old.


title: Don't do it!

text:
Don't do it! Don't get a subscription unless you would like to be pestered for the rest of your life. This company sends out more crap, always looking to make a buck. First it's different cook books they have going then it's their cooking school then about halfway through your subscription they will assault you with constant "renewal deals" that remain the same and aren't really a deal. Also they will probably have your email if you order through amazon so expect at least three emails a week. They also make it so that you can't get any access to their website that's another subscription. It is utterly obnoxious and unnecessary. I have bought used cars with less annoyance.

The best thing you can do if your looking for great recipes is to buy their yearly cookbook they release which has the entire magazine for each month in the book and it is identical to what you get in print. Also the recipes rotate with little tweaks so don't feel you have to go buy the newest one. Go back 5, 6, even 10 years. You can buy a years worth of recipes with no needles in your eye balls for less than a years subscription.

As far as the recipes go Cooks is the best. They have great articles that help you learn about cooking and the tools necessary to do so. I like how they will compare different things like chicken broths to show what is the best and whats a waste of money. I like the reviews of things like knife sets and blenders and things like that.


title: They need to get rid of the automotive stuff. ...

text: They need to get rid of the automotive stuff. This magazine has always tried to pass off automotive brochures as news. The fact that brand x  has a new shade of blue for its seat cover is not worth reading.


title: Five Stars

text: One of the most useful reads out there. Always something you'll need in business or personal.


title: A liberal-biased magazine with PHONE REVIEWS!!!!

text: I was recently gifted a subscription to Popular Mechanics Magazine but had to cancel the subscription due to the time spent unclogging my toilet after wiping with the magazine after trying to read the articles. The magazine has changed quite a bit since the year or two ago when I last read an issue. Even then, it seemed that the issue was geared more towards people who pay other people to change their motor oil for them, but the past few issues I have gone through are for the full blown metrosexual. Has the magazine been taken over by a college frat or sorority of flip flop wearing pajama pant fellers? A year or two ago the back page would give a short description of some person and their science or technical career. I think the back page article of my first gifted magazine had a cute survey to take to find out if you needed a new smart phone. The final straw came after I got to an article in the November 14' issue "Congressional Innovation Scorecard".  Yes, the elections are coming up, but heck no to a magazine that urges to mostly vote for a party that has striven to tax any activity that the do it yourselfer might attempt. But I guess those politicians need to take the money from somewhere to fund all those government STEM programs, and to combat "climate change".  I was holding out hope that the magazine would get better, but it has done the opposite.


title: Information

text: Just what I wanted


title: Horrible Experience #2

text: I ordered this magazine in September for a present to someone and the first issue was to be sent in November. I get covid delays, but being a month late on a periodic magazine is plain unacceptable!


title: Small

text: Smaller than a standard eight and a half by 11. Very thin and full of ads. Not the magazine I remember as a kid. Very disappointed


title: Good Luck!

text:
Popular Mechanic has gotten too Political. You would think engineering and mathematics is a true science which Popular Mechanics is based on not popular political opinions. Try to print truth not some political correctness. If you can't print truth and innovative ideas that can help our society, then you are on the road to self destruction no matter how correct you feel.

Good Luck!


title: MAGAZINE

text: MY HUSBAND USED TO READ THIS AND THOUGHT IT A GOOD BUY, BUT SINCE<br />GETTING IT HE HASN'T READ ANY OF THEM YET, SO NO REASON TO RE ORDER.


title: Never again

text: Never again Do not buy it’s a waste of your money there’s really nothing in the magazine it stinks


title: Could be more practical, Room for improvement

text: Jay Leno's column is cool but it is in every other issue, not monthly. I agree that PM gives a good overview of tech stuff and its great to have the advice columns for us home and auto owners. I find, though, the mag is too technical at times- it echoes the all too common tendency of many companies to focus on features and not on ease of use or simplicity of the product. Tech for its own sake, in other words. They often write about "fantasy inventions"- things that would not work in the real world, e.g an underwater house- how would you deal w/barnacles? They also make a big deal over "patriotic" events which seem too bureacratic to be in this mag. I don't buy this mag to read about a festival honoring veterans, even though I appreciate vets.


title: Worth it.

text: Great magazine. My dog loves reading PM every month.


title: Interesting

text: I acted on one of amazon's promotions of this magazine where i got a yearly subscription for about five dollars.  this is truly a fantastic magazine and i'd like to continue this subscription vs. my popular science.

title: I was looking for Popular Mechanics in my neighborhood

text:
This paper totally disappointed me. I was looking for popular mechanics to help me with my car, and paid $5 on Amazon for a yearly subscription...mechanics in my town move a lot, so wanted to stay current for at least 12 months.
Plus, some mechanics are popular, and then are not. Your reputation as a mechanic is really as good as your last repair you made.
But, I got articles that absolutely do not interest me.
I will stick with Angie's list. Good mechanics, and popular.


After six months, I received my first copy.


title: Great magazine

text: I ordered this for my teenage son, who has an interest in science. He and I both read it cover to cover.


title: Best magazine on this topic

text: Great magazine--ordered it for my pre-teen son who is interested in these topics, and we've ended up both reading it and having good conversations about the articles. He usually reads it cover to cover as soon as it arrives, so I have to push to keep up. Really happy with it.

title: Don't buy from Herst

text: They will automatically sign you up for autorenewal even if you don't click subscription.  Getter ways to get you magazines than through a shady company like this.


title: PM

text: While many magazines today are full of gimicky tricks of the trade, PM does away with much of that. The mag is filled with great DIY and many fascinating articles. Sometimes the ads don't even seem to be ads, but part of the mag itself. It has great  monthly selections and the readers won't be able to put this one down until they finish the whole thing.


title: Detail mechanics function of car and control systems

text: It is unlike the old popular mechanics , the subject her is not in-depth<br />Which doesn’t met my acceptation

title: Used to be great - but it recently changed for the worse

text:
I've subscribed to PM for most of my life, dating back to the 1970's.  Always loved it, and was disappointed when its competitor Mechanix Illustrated folded back in the day.

Around May 2020 my PM magazines resized to almost Readers Digest dimensions.  And the print became smaller and harder to read.  The articles hardly ever extend more than 2 pages anymore.  And for me, one of biggest disappointments is the recent My Pop Life section that takes up the first few pages, where on display are favorites apps and products of the admin assistants, gophers and other assorted staff.  Who needs that?

Also, the annual number of issues has been reduced to 6 for the same price, although the number of pages hasn't changed.  So you get less issues for the money, less content, and a magazine that feels like a coupon mailer in your hands.

I hate to be such a downer...I've truly loved reading PM for as far as I can remember...and apparently some executive thought going the cost-cutting route would somehow be an improvement.  Maybe for the bottom line, but not the loyal subscribers.  I'm letting my subscription run out, and will only re-up if it goes on sale.


title: Popular Mechanics

text: the fact that I ordered online meant that I didnt get full information about when the subscription (gift!) would start - I ordered in NOvember and the youngster who's gift it was (Christmas) got nothing in his stocking from his aunt and uncle.  Bummer!  when I called the company 800 # they told me that if I'd ordered direct with the company the customer service person would have told me that January was when the gift year would begin.  All is well now that January has arrived but it wasn't fun for the gift recipent!  Seems that disclosure ought to be the same whether one is ordering online thru Amazon or direct with the company.


title: Great

text: Always am anticipating the issue


title: Rusted Inspiration.

text:
I have been a subscriber since I was thirteen years old -I am now twenty five -and before that used to read my father's issues. The magazine used to be a dream. The articles where meaningful and full of content. There was variety and more importantly, was inspirational.

The current publication is nothing of it's former self. The content has deteriorated. Nothing I feel is in-depth anymore and the reviews or "tests" are glorified advertisements. There is no earnest opinion. I sat here, thinking about renewing my subscription for another decade because the price was right -so much so that five years ago I would have jumped at it. However, as I was finalizing my order a small shadow crept into my thinking. I do not enjoy it anymore because it is not as good as it once was.

This is terribly sad for me. I am a young man who at one point emailed customer service both at PM and PopSci about getting LIFETIME SUBSCRIPTIONS. Fast forward and I will let my subscription fade. Not because of the internet. Not because I am not interested in the content. The  MacGyver inspired young man that I am realized the magazine has changed for the worse years back and has yet to recover.

text: I ordered a year subscription and received one magazine.


title: Just fine

text: This magazine is just the right complement to the tool box I purchased sometime ago.

title: Love It!

text: This is such a great magazine. It has the best articles. There is always some very interesting article to read.


title: Fairy topics

text: The  selection of the articles is  really wide for these magazine, I will preffer they will be more especific, however  it's a general publication  and the articles are up to date.-


title: Wrong Recipient

text: I ordered this magazine as a gift and entered the  address to which gift was to be sent.  The first issue arrived at MY address....I contacted the magazine and hope to goodness the error has been corrected.  I've had no correspondence telling if it has or hasn't  I doubt I'll order magazines thru Amazon again.


title: Too long of a wait

text:
11 weeks have gone by and I have yet to recieve an issue.  What burns me up is that I have recieved a RE-SUBSCRIBE letter in the mail from the publisher promising to make sure I dont miss an issue if I pay up for ANOTHER year.

WELL... I havn't gotten my FIRST issue yet.


title: Rip Off

text: Totally a rip off never got a single issue


title: Gift

text: Recieved and he's happy


title: Amazon

text: I doubled ordered when ordering something else, now it seems very hard to unsubscribe. Very displeased and some what confused.


title: INFORMATIVE MAGAZINE

text: I BOUGHT THIS FOR MY HUSBAND BUT I FIND MANY, IF NOT ALL THE ARTICLES TO MY LIKING AND INFORMATIVE ALSO.<br />THE PRICE WAS UNBEATABLE TOO! CAN'T GO WRONG WITH THIS PURCHASE.


title: Best mix of information of all the periodicals available

text: Best magazine out there!  So much information, wonderfully written.

text:

text: Great content. If you use the harbor freight coupon in the back of the magazine it pays for itself in no time.


title: Very happy with my order!

text: I ordered Popular Mechanics for my son as a Christmas gift.  He loves it and was very happy!  His 1st issue came a few weeks quicker than expected and comes right on time each month!  Great magazine!


Arizona Highways Magazine (1-year auto-renewal)


Popular Science (1-year automatic renewal)


title: Popular Mechanics (1-year auto-renewal)

text: Renewal


title: Magazine Subscription Review

text: This was a great last minute Christmas gift for my husband. Not only was it an actually "I'd really like to have Popular Mechanics subscription" to my face request, it was also a great savings. This 1 year subscription was a special price of $5.00! I didn't have to go out searching the stores either! THANKS!:o)


title: Not The Same as Before

text: To many adds


title: Popular Mechanics - Great magazine!!!

text: I remember my uncle used to have these at his home in the 60s.  I thought they were great then.  The magazine has changed it's focus a bit but I LOVE IT.  Great magazine.  I notice my 23 year old son really enjoys reading them too.  Highly recommend for nerdy, geeky, super cool people with varied interests.  ;-)


title: Hardly working..

text: great magazine.  Many hours at work are dedicated to this subscription.  Especially like reading about newer tech that is out there.


title: love it

text: always love popular mechanics great magazine!


title: Save your money.

text: P.S. has tried to become Consumer Reports in an attempt to fill all of their pages with advertisements.


title: Not so good.

text: 50% advertising, 30% Consumer Reports, 20% interest.


title: Awesome magazine.

text: This is a great magazine that arrived quickly. Has good articles about hunting tips and practices. As of course with every magazine it seems like there are more advertisements than anything else, hence the 4 instead of 5.


title: Completely Rediculous!

text: Completely rediculous that I place an order for this item in November and estimated ship date is the end of February. I will not buy a magazine from these people again. I bought this as a Christmas gift. I can understand maybe a few weeks after Christmas but 2 months is out of hand


title: Never shipped

text:
2 months have passed since I ordered this and not one issue has been delivered to me.
I did however get a subscription renewal request from Hearst Publications.
That will never happen.

My 1 star rating is for the seller and not the magazine.


title: Go this for my boyfriend in the lightning deal back ...

text: Go this for my boyfriend in the lightning deal back in February, and it didn’t arrive until April, and the. It auto renewed for $12 and we are just now getting the next issue. Not only is the content not what he was hoping for ( looking for older version feel of Popular mechanics ) and complained there was too many advertisements, but to pay $12 for one issue is too over priced for what it is.


title: Great Find for Smart Readers

text: Needed a new read and this really does it for me.  Broad spread of topics, many new and fascinating to me.<br />Sure, there are lots of ads but someone has to support the publishing of a real magazine that you can hold in your hands.


title: It was more interesting, a few years ago.....

text: I'm disappointed with articles!


title: Still a stalwart magazine crammed full of advice!

text: Although P.M. has sort of become modernized and seems to be dumbed-down somewhat from a decade or more ago, it's still crammed full of great stuff, and I doubt I would be too short-sighted to say men will like it more in GENERAL than the ladies because we're such tinkerers by nature. I haven't missed an issue since about 1985 when I was immersed in my first foray into PM's wondrerful projects!


title: done subsribing

text: Just got The Video Issue.  Been a long time subscriber of Popular Mechanics.  Just renewed! Wish I hadn't! Will be last time. Went thru the Video issue twice!  Didn't find one article worth while reading.  What a waste of a once GREAT magazine!


title: Good old print

text: Popular Mechanics is a wonderful review of recent technologies and perfect DIY advising edition. Although you can get almost the same content online, I'm enjoying much having the print edition. It's useful, novice and up-to-date.


title: Good Purchase

text: The purchase of this magazine is very good value for money. I renewed the service a second time. I definitely recommend this purchase.


title: OKAY READING

text: MAG IS INTERESTING BUT NOT WHAT I REMEMBER FROM MY 1960'S EXPOSURE TO THE SAME.  I AM SURE THAT TODAYS TECHNOLOGY MOVES SO FAST AS COMPARED TO THE EARLIER YEARS THAT IT JUST SEEMS TO BE LESS INTERESTING.  WITH THAT SAID POP MECH IS STILL THE BEST!!  KEEP IT UP GUYS!!


title: Not even a glimmer of a former great magazine.

text: I just cancelled my subscription after receiving the third issue. THe magazine seems only to exist to sell ads, as the content is abysmal at best.  No real meat, just fluffly writing of little to no value.  Don't waste your energy.<br />May be interesting to a 10-12 year old, but they won't learn much.


title: Five Stars

text: I love this magazine


title: The Life You've Always Wanted

text: I waited over 3 weeks for this product for a class I was in and was then told it was never shipped from Canada.


title: Made my husbands Day!

text: I ordered this for my husband who loves all things cars, gadgets & computers. I was hoping the first issue would make it here before Christmas for an early gift & to my suprise it is already here! Well before the estimated delivery date! He was quite excited when he got home. Think I earned some brownie points!


title: One Star

text: Bad


title: great price.

text: very informative.  looking forward to renewing for next year. great price.


title: A great magazine for males and females

text:
gave this to a friend for christmas,  he thinks it's great.
I work in a dental office and the patients love them.
Price is fantastic!


title: News of the Mechanical Age

text: I have always loved this magazine for bringing knowledge of the mechanical age to persons who are interested in mechanics but are not mechanical engineers. It is simply presented, highly educational and fun to read. What's not to like?


title: Two Stars

text: Not as in depth and interesting as it used to be.


title: Great mag, super convenient digital access.

text: Wired is a fantastic mag. I have read it for years, and this is a pretty good deal. The digital edition is just as good as the print edition, and is great when you want a on the go solution.


title: Too Good to be true

text: I am not at all happy with the subscription! I paid $5.00 for (what I thought was supposed to be) a year's subscription. It was a<br />Christmas gift for my husband, and he has only received 3 issues so far. There has been NO communication with the Hearst Magazines company as to where the missing issues are and why they are not sending them. I thought I was getting a great deal for $5.00 but I see now that "IF something sounds too good to be true, it probably is". I will NOT be renewing my subscription. Ever. I am an unhappy, dis-satisfied customer.


title: Great magazine - subscription takes time...

text:
I have had a subscription to PM in the past and like it - this review is not about that mag in particular...

My purpose is just to reiterate what Amazon told me when I bought it: It does take time to get started! I think the signup mentioned up to six weeks and I haven't got my first issue yet after a month (I haven't lost hope and fully anticipate getting one soon).

This is NOT a complaint! Just a statement to emphasize what you're told when you purchase the subscription - it will take time to get started receiving your magazines so be patient.


title: Filled with  Cigarette Ads

text: 7 cigarette or tobacco ads in a single issue. Just cancelled my subscription. I thought it would be a good magazine for the whole family. Very confusing. There is an email listed inside a magazine for kids to ask questions, so they know kids read this.


title: Excellent Service

text: Excellent service, neatly packaged, arrived when they said it would. I would buy from this vendor again. I have always had positive transactions from Amazon vendors.


title: Great Mag Great Price

text: I have always liked this magazine and when I saw they were making an offer I couldnt refuse I acted and for $5 I am receiving a full years worth of this Great magazine. I have always enjoyed reading about new trends in science and other areas of technology plus I always enjoy there ideas of what the future will be like.  Anyway at this price anyone even thinking about subscribing should.


title: Debunking Popular Mechanics

text: After the conclusions they drew from the 9-11 destruction, how do you believe anything they write?  Impossible to see their reasoning on that and to me, that draws suspicion about everything else they write.  Just another part of mainstream media.


title: Did not received.

text: Well he is still waiting. This was a gift. It is med January and no magazine. It should of been delivered this month. I checked my order and everything looks correct so it must be on the order takers side.So far service is pretty poor.


title: where is the magazine?

text: This was a gift for my Dad. He has only received one magazinewe I ordered it in Nov. and that one took longer because your order people didn't get his name right. If any one cares please take a look at the name on the order. He needs the full name an number.Maybe put the number on the next line. So far pretty poor service.


title: pop mech

text: good mag, interesting stuff...need to get the online version.... dont like the auto renewal thing unless you can remember to cancel if you dont like charged... I dont like to be auto renewed for anything....


title: Unhappy....I did not authorize auto-renewal and tried to cancel

text: I did not authorize auto-renewal.  I would have renewed at the $5 rate but not at the $12 rate.....and tried to cancel but could not.


title: Great reviews

text: Awesome magazine


title: Make me build something

text: Always a treasure to read


title: So So, not Great a bit thin

text:
This might be a good magazine to get your Jr. High son or grandson. It has lots of interesting articles. I really enjoyed it as a kid.

It takes a hard slant to the right on ocasion. There are also just a few too many times where what is featured in their tech review articles happen to be featured prominantly in the magazine's ads. Its hard to tell the ads from the articles at times. Its also just not that well written. The articles themselves are a bit thin.

One article a while back mentioned a "bridge of glass" being built in Tacoma. (this was a follow-on to an earlier article on bridge technology and exotic materials) If you go there, its a bridge to a glass museum, but is made of ordinary reinforced concrete. A little editorial fact checking never hurts.


title: Three Stars

text: since when is a one year monthly subscription only ten issues


title: full of alcohol and vaping ads ... not for kids

text: I bought this for my kids, very disappointed like other readers are saying the articles are not very attractive but most importantly I felt that this magazine was not meant to educate my kids but to sell them the habit to drink alcohol or to start using vaping. This paper is full of ads for this. don't bother ....

title: Subscription to Popular Mechanics

text: I've given this magazine to my son for many years. He looks forward to getting a new subscription each year for Christmas. It was an added bonus this time to be looking forward to the $5.00 bonus, however I would have purchased the magazine without it.


title: Fix this now!

text: I never ordered and this is the second time you billed me for this subscription. You need to stop this action now!


title: Good gift

text: My husband and son are very pleased with the magazine.  It was a wise choice for a gift.  We will renew.


title: Great mag...

text: this is one of my favorite magazines. Occaisionally it comes off too high tech but for the most part it is down to earth, informative & I'm always excited to see what new items they will be informing us about.


title: My boy likes it

text: I have subscribed the magzine for 5 months for my 12 year old boy. He certainly enjoyed reading them. Sometimes I read them too. Nice!


title: Popular Mechanics

text: I bought the magazine subscription for my dad. He has received his first issue and loves it!

text: Good mix.


title: Popular Mechanics Hard Copy Review

text: I very much enjoy Popular Mechanics. I've been subscribing to the magazine for almost a decade. Recently, I paid for digital copies of Popular Science and am a huge fan of the digital magazine. Popular Mechanics was one of the first magazines to transition to digital subscriptions and I wish I had switched earlier. I love the magazine and encourage everyone to subscribe, but would recommend they chose to purchase a digital copy. The digital magazine is very interactive and it's delivered directly to you regardless of your location. I rated this magazine as a 3 out of 5 because it's a hard copy. The content of the magazine is a 5 out of 5. I can't, in good conscious, rate any hard copy magazine a 5 out of 5 after trying a digital version of Popular Science.


title: Extremely POOR SERVICE

text: I originally ordered this in April. I have been told I wilk receive it in Srptember. This is terrible service.  I refuse to ever order magazines again with Amazon. For what rhecprice is for magazines , I wil do without from now on. Buyer beware of Hearst Lublishing and Amazon!!!


title: Advertisement: From Cover to Cover

text: You literally have to find contents from loads of advertisements.


title: Good for trivial information and scientific community updates dumbed down.

text: The older brother of Popular Mechanics, its better for a slightly serious approach however not like Scientific American


title: BEst overall

text: Great and fun to read and has a huge variety of articles.


title: Bad magazine overall

text: The only good pages are the tiny drawn comice the rest is just absurd.


title: very happy

text: popular mechanic for that cheap that's like one issue on newsstand only issue was it took a long time to get the first issue but after that they came like clockwork awesome mag it really is if you have yet to read it just order the subscription its cheaper thin the news stand for one anyway


title: car and driver

text: car and driver for that cheap that's like one issue on newsstand only issue was it took a long time to get the first issue but after that they came like clockwork


title: Great

text: Yeah


title: Like items for sale in back of mag

text: Always have interesting articles. Like items for sale in back of mag, have bought several.


Articles for sale are very expensive, but love the variety of paint color choices.


title: See abover

text: Tired of reading about super expensive cars average people can't afford. Try more articles on $25,000-$50,000 cars in my price range.


title: but love the variety of paint color choices


title: No Kindle Edition??

text:
Great magazine but NO Kindle Edition? Is this the 80's or is this the 21st century? I've emailed the editor of Popular Mechanics asking why they are not yet available as a Kindle subscription, but not even a reply.

Come on Amazon & Popular Mechanics, you're missing out on millions of potential subscribers. We are kindle users and WE DON'T want to support paper based products anymore. Bring Popular Mechanics to Kindle.


title: 6 month subscription is 1 single issue??!!??

text: Said 6 month subscription would be 3 issues. 1 every other month. Got 1 issue and that's it. Deceptive. Very dissatisfied. And try to get Amazon Customer service to help.....LOL..... That's funny. Never again. Buyer beware.


title: Great Magazine

text: Really good articles and varying content makes it easy to stay intrigued with each edition sent.  I would recommend it for anyone looking for a good weekly read.


title: What happened to PM?

text:
What the heck happened to PM???
The negative reviews get better reviews than the actual magazine!!

A sad day indeed


title: Popular Mechanics

text: This was the best price I could find on the internet.  My husband loves this magazine. He reads it cover to cover.


title: Indispensable

text: NOT YOUR DADDY'S POPULAR MECH !! Even my wife reads it!


title: Best magazine out there!

text: Awesome magazine!  Loaded with great articles and useful tips. I look forward to getting the magazine in the mail each week.


title: Great

text: Really enjoy reading its magazine every month. My son is even reading it, he's twelve. He loves to build and created.


title: Nothing about Mechanics

text: This magazine is garbage. There's nothing mechanical in it. Read the other 1–2 star reviews and you'll get the idea. Thankfully I only paid a couple dollars for the subscription. If I had paid full price I would be seriously disappointed. I would have been better off going on Pinterest. Do yourself a favor and stay clear.


title: Popular Mechanics

text: This subscription came right away, I was very surprised as it said February (I think). Super service. Just in time for Christmas for my hubby.


title: Fine Antiques magazine

text: If you really want to know what fine antiques look like, learn from this book!<br />You won't see them anywhere else except in a museum or wealthy homes.


title: Excellent magazine-excellent buy!

text: I have subscibed to Antiques for years. It is the best of the kind and this offer is the best I have seen.<br />CR, Cincinnati


title: THE  DISCERNING READER

text: This beautiful magazine is in itself a work of art. The quality of every page and bits of information is fascinating.I see the art, the homes and read every word including the ads. I first discovered this gem in London many years ago and now it is in my home and very welcome at that.


title: The Magazine Antiques

text: This is an informative magazine for antiquarians and persons interested in interior design and Decorative Arts.  The articles are well-written and accompanied by good photographs and illustrations.  It is a pleasure to read and you will come away from it each time learning something new that is worth remembering.


title: Love Good Housekeeping.

text: I've been getting Good Housekeeping for over 30 years now, maybe even longer.  I  enjoyed reading it.  I love all the articles and the recipes too.  I'm now sending subscriptions to my daughter and daughter-in-law.


title: I Can dig it!

text:
I love, Love, LOVE this magazine.  It is the perfect combination of technique, design, and inspiration every issue.  If you are a beginning gardener, you cannot do much better than study this magazine.  If you are an experienced gardener, you will learn something new every issue.
This is one of the few gardening magazines that covers the US West -- it is different out here, and they know it.  It is rare that you will read in any of their articles, "If it has not rained this week..."  which is always a sign to Californians that the article does not apply to us.
One of my favorite features is the semi-regular tool essays.  It must be a guy thing, but I really enjoy their tool expert explain the proper way to use a tool.  Since I started paying attention to his advice, my back has stopped aching so much at the end of a garden day, I know how to keep my shovels sharp (you would not believe what a difference this makes), and I gave away the leaf blower -- there is a real peacefulness to raking leaves that you will never achieve with the Devil's hair dryer.
However, I think the best feature is the tips from other readers. I have learned so many clever things from other gardeners volunteering their suggestions -- one person suggested putting vegetable scraps in a blender jar (it's airtight, so it won't smell) and when it is full, just whizz the stuff and pour onto the compost hear.  That tip alone has paid off in my compost pile being active year round.  I turn to this section first every time.
It is a great magazine, you won't regret subscribing.


title: So where's the beef (or any other ingredient)?

text:
My very kind neighbor brings me her copy of Gourmet every month, along with the admonishment of, "I don't cook like this."  Neither do I, but mostly because I cannot find the articles.
With few exceptions, I have never seen a magazine with so many ads and so little content.  Articles are sometimes strung out for pages and pages, just to force you to look at one more ad.  This is annoying in a news magazine, but deadly in a cooking magazine.  I found myself very confused following a recipe, only to discover on the "next page" a special advertising supplement that looks exactly like the recipe I was reading.  When does anyone add mustard to a cake?  Disaster struck.
Some people probably swear by Gourmet, but my neighbor and I swear at it.  I would give this 0 stars if Amazon allowed me.


title: Hit and Miss

text:
Not all that great to be honest. Each issue is short, about 30 pages or so. The only thing about it that is consistently worth reading is Stanton Friedman's column, although it gets repetative pretty fast because he constantly uses his own set of personalized ufological "buzz words." It seems like in every column he mentions "tribal warfare," "3,000 trace cases," "SETI cultists," "long term survival," etc.

Occasionally interesting articles will be published, but mostly it's just Stan Friedman, a star map and accounts of UFO sightings. And honestly, UFO sightings aren't that interesting. One can only read "I saw a weird light zipping around in the sky" so many times before one would rather be anal probed than keep going. It would make a good free newsletter, but it sure as heck isn't worth $[...] bucks for a subscription.

If you're still interested in it despite my review, visit the Black Vault Wiki where PDFs of all of the pre-2008 back issues are available to download for free.


title: Husband was so happy!

text: My husband was concerned he would miss an issue of "Golf" but renewal went smoothly and he's a happy golfer.


title: Ideas abound!

text: This magazine is an absolute must for the creative homeowner. The projects are well laid out with great diagrams and photographs which give you a great feel for the final look.  The ideas are creative and many follow the PBS show, "This Old House."  It's a great way to have frameable on-the-scene photos of Tommy Silva and Richard Trethewey from the show suitable for framing, in living color!  The price from Amazon.com was under $10/year.  It was the bargain of the year in my books.


title: for travelers who value creature comforts

text:
Several years ago I had a job where I traveled a lot for work.  This experience made me choosy about where I stayed, and what I did with myself when I was away from home on weekends.  It was at this time that I began reading Travel and Leisure; I've read it ever since.

Travel and Leisure is unapologetic about writing for people who want to be pampered when they are on vacation.  It inspires readers with pretty pictures, and promises paradise to those with money to spend and time to plan.  This is not a magazine for those who prefer youth hostels.  It is not for people whose goal is "adventure travel."  Travel and Leisure is for people who want to relax, to be pampered, and to be charmed when they are on vacation from their otherwise hectic lives.  What if you don't have time to take that vacation?  Well then Travel and Leisure is precisely the magazine you should read to help you imagine what that trip would have been like.


title: perfect gift for TOH fans

text:
This is a magazine for old house lovers -- people who like the style of an older home, for whom the things that break and the things that creak inspire renovation not cursing.

My wife and I live in our second old house, and have watched the TV show since before our first.  For us pragmatic Norm the woodworker, blow-dried Steve the host, and spendthrift Richard the plumbing/HVAC guy are like family.  This magazine provides occasional coverage of the project house you see on PBS which is a bonus for fans.  But its main focus is to show you how you can fix up your own old house.

It is a great source of ideas, inspiration, and the vendors who can sell you what you'll need.  Got an old house and the money and patience for renovation?  If you do, get this magazine.


title: technology for technophiles

text:
I've subscribed to Wired Magazine for several years, though I confess that that I don't read every issue from cover to cover.  This is a magazine best suited to Silicon Valley technophiles.  There are a lot of ads for the latest gadgets, and the short articles about these new technologies appeal to more avid gadget collectors than me.

So why have I not cancelled my subscription?  I keep reading Wired because of the feature articles.  They are well researched, thoughtful, and clever; they often cover an aspect of the business or culture of technology that other magazines miss.  I can still remember some of the best articles -- an article about why FedEx is really a high tech company, an article about how fiber optic cable is laid and what that means for the economics of broadband, an article about how the European Commission's Competition Bureau is shaping the global technology business through its regulatory authority.

If you are a technophile, you s!hould subscribe if you don't already.  But even if you're not, you should consider it if you work in the tech sector or have an interest in how technology affects all of our lives.


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine!


title: I look forward to it every month!

text: I like that it has decorating tips and how to features along with practical info. I am a single woman and I use this magazine for<br />do it yourself projects. I have learned a great deal.


title: This magazine is great

text: We love this magazine always full of imaginative yet practical ideas. We save every issue and have a library available whatever project we do


title: Makes a great gift...even for yourself

text:
I ordered this magazine for my husband, but ever since the first issue arrived I've been hooked. (My sister picked up one of our copies while visiting and was instantly hooked too. So, I ordered her a subscription for Christmas.) I've been a fan of the show for some time, but have found the magazine much more useful as far as everyday application of knowledge gained. It's given me (oh, and my husband) lots of practical but brilliant ideas. I'm planning on putting in a butler's pantry in the kitchen this spring.

I have to confess one of my favorite things about the magazine is the letter from the editor that sets-up the issue. He's just a witty, salt-of-the-earth kinda guy and I always laugh at his stories. The only downside to the magazine is that some of the houses in the feature articles have had 100's of thousands of dollars spent on their remodels. My husband and I are D.I.Y.ers, not people who could hire a contractor to add another 1000 sq. feet to our house. Even still, I do glean good ideas from those spreads of palatial remodels.

One more thing, their website is incredibly helpful and easy to navigate, so check that out too!


title: A great resource

text: TOH Magazine is a great resource for those who are restoring their vintage homes.  It includes many how to guides and readers can send in their questions to Norm.  His answers are not always the easy way, but the best way!  I also find many of the pictures are good ways to come up with ideas that you would have never thought of for your newly recreated space.  All in all, it is one of the best home and garden magazines on the market!


title: If I'd ever receive

text: The mag would be great if I would receive more than the two copies I got.  I received two copies and have not received anymore.  And of course you go in circles on the web trying to contact anybody.  I want my other issues!!!!!


title: Four Stars

text: Love it


title: Things to remember

text: I get so many ideas to do I don't have time to do them all.  keep up the good work and keep them coming!


title: More like a catalog

text: Too many advertisements!


title: Idk

text: Love the idea's to repair stuff


title: Magazine content

text: This Old House magazine cover so many topics that makes it an indespensible tool for anyone with an older home.


title: Best cooking mag for people who what Food TV

text: I really love this mag. It's like having the show in your home for each of the chefs. Full of lots of great info.


title: They sold themselves out

text: I had, repeat had been reading this magazine for ten years or so. Over that time they have really changed. I guess it started when they got a new editor four or five years ago. After that the adds changed from building suppliers to lexus ads. I don't like seeing automotive and home stereo ads in my how-to magazine. The information is more akin to Martha Stewart than it is Norm Abrams. Who by the way is hardly in there anymore if at all. Not to mention the new guy, A stray they picked up from ask this old house, what an opie taylor he is. What makes him eligible to write something for TOH magazine. I really miss Steve Thomas. The how-to's though somewhat informative really lack the intricate details. All I can say is thank god Tom Silva still puts in some minutia of his wealth of information. If you'd like a "Better Homes and Gardens plus magazine" then this magazines for you if you want to learn something try Fine Homebuilding or at the least Family Handyman.


title: Advertisement overload.

text: Way too many adds. I wanted it for outdoor project idea's.

title: Great magazine

text: Great information for d I y ers


title: Better than expected

title: Five Stars

title: Handyman helpful

text: A very well prepared magazine with loads of helpful hints and ideas. Worth the money.


title: Love this magazine!

text: Love this magazine!  Great ideas and will always be a classic in my opinion!


title: Scam subscription

text: This is a scam subscription. Beware!!


title: Five Stars

text: Love the whole mag.


title: This old House Review

text: This Old House is the most helpful magazine for renovating older houses that I have seen.  It gives directions that a novice can follow if the task is suitable.  I have been able to locate products that I have not found elsewhere for repairing plaster, restoring older trims and woodwork, and refurbishing kitchen and bathroom fixtures.  The unique thing about this magazine is that anybody can find ideas within their budget.  I save all my issues as the articles never get out of date.


title: Five Stars

text: Just love it!


title: Pure Fluff!

text: The magazine is absolute fluff!  It is nothing more than advertisement.  There are no real articles in this magazine.  This Old House has turned into Martha Stewart Living, except Martha Stewart Living actually has useful articles!  There are no DIY articles.  There are no help articles.  There are one sentence "help" blurbs from subscribers of dubious knowledge.  The web site is much better.  Save you money.


title: Tons of information

text: I love it.


title: Quick shipping

text: Perfect for the DYI'er in your life.


title: Five Stars

text: GOOD IMFORMTIVE MAGAZINE AND THE PRICE WAS ALSO GOOD


title: Bob's Opinion

text: I love this magazine.  It's a little pricey but I kept my eye on deals and found one. I recommend this magazine. I always go to the house on the back page before viewing anything else.


title: Great magazine with very helpful tips

text: Great magazine with very helpful tips.  Have always loved the TV show, and the magazine is just a very enjoyable extension.  Thanks TOH!


title: This Old House

text: This product has very good ideas and helps you with getting creative on your own ideas.<br />great for people on a budget.


title: Awful liberal magazine

text: What they promote


title: Five Stars

text: Very informative and practical ideas.


title: Thin

text: We used to get this magazine many years ago and it was a thick magazine.  Now not so much.  Love this old House.


title: Best Renovation Mag Ever

text: I've been reading TOH for about two years now and find it to be informative and a bit inspiring.  I like that each issue contains things I can do myself and major rebuilds that show what is possible with a good contractor and lots of money.  The amount of useable information is pretty impressive.


title: this old house magazine

text: This magazine is so informative, interesting, and for all folks either the do-it-yourselfer, or the advanced home improvement expert.  Great products are always shown and noted where they can be purchased.  I saw this magazine listed and jumped to be a subscriber.  Thank you for all the contributors,  they make reading this magazine so enjoyable!  KDavis


title: great mag-country living--worth every penny!!

text: This magazine is captivating, the articles are well done, every month they seek interesting products to tell you about.  I love it.


title: Unhappy

text: Not pleased only received one magazine since July


title: This Old House Review

text: Very pleased with the magazine and the ease of ordering online. Look forward to the future issues.


title: Five Stars

text: Love the show, love the magazine


title: This Old House magazine

text: I give this to my son and he really enjoys the magazine.  He has used ideas to fix up things in his home.


title: Food Network magazine

text: I give this to my daughters and they really love it!!!


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine!


title: This old house

text: Excellent magazine to compliment the tv show. Would recommend this to anyone and to everyone who is interested in home restoration and repair


title: I used to love the magazine but with the recent change in editor ...

text: Have watched TOH since I was a little girl with my dad. I used to love the magazine but with the recent change in editor I have to say I am disappointed. It feels more girly and pottery barn type design focus rather than construction and DIY topics that are practical for a homeowner with budgets and imperfect homes. I still love the show. Wish the magazine would follow suit with humor like the guys standing around the table guessing name that tool or focusing on general building intelligence vs interior design.


title: good read.

text: As described, good read.


title: CHOCK FULL OF IDEAS!

text: Living in a house built in 1893, the creative suggestions for upgrades in This Old House have been very inspiring.


title: Love looking thru this magazine

text: Love looking thru this magazine!  I save all of them hoping to do many more of their projects.  Good information and ideas. Look forward to each new one!


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent house advice.


title: Unknown outcome to purchase

text: I requested this purchase be a renewal subscription to my existing one.  To this date, I do not know if my purchase has been applied as requested.  Thank you.


title: Excellent Mag

text: Excellent ideas for fix it your self at home.  Also excellent ideas foe various build it yourself projects.


title: This Old House subscription

text: I have had this magazine before and like the articles.  It also has provided plenty of ideas on how to attach problems at my home.  The price I paid could not be beat.  The only negative is I ordered in the early part of May and am told not to excect my first magazine until the end of July if I remember correctly.  Seems to me to take an awful long time to get setup once you have paid your money.


title: Never received all of the issues

text: Only received 3 issues, very disappointed


title: Love the magazine but only received 4 issues!

text: Great magazine but only received a total of 4 magazines!


title: Three Stars

text: will not renew


title: One Star

text: Two copies arrive each tim a new issue comes out.  This lasted five issues and I had purchased ten.


title: gift

text: A gift to my dad at Christmas and he loves it!  He is not a big reader but he enjoys this magazine a lot.  I bought it from a school fundraiser and passed it on to him.  He liked it so much I got it for him for Christmas.


title: Good Ideas

text: My wife and I both enjoy the layout and ideas presented in this mag.  Helps when trying to find ideas for finishing projects and seeing what things could look like.  Not that it always turns out that way!


title: Five Stars

text: I like the magazine but didn't receive it


title: magazine is mostly advertising!

text: I thought I was subscribing to a "help and idea" product...butinfo and creative ideas were very much lacking for "home improvement." I wish I could cancel the subscription!!!


title: Four Stars

text: I enjoyed reading it.


title: Quality Magazine

text: Quality magazine given as a perfect Christmas gift to a person who wanted it.


title: Five Stars

text: Husband loves it!


title: This Old House Magazine

text: I look forward to seeing this magazine everytime it arrives. My wife reads it also cover to cover


title: Great magizine.

text: Always look forward to it arriving.  Lots of ideas.


title: COMPARED TO DETAILS, THIS IS HORRIBLE!!

text: ok so if you have read my other reviews, you can tell i am a HUGE fan of the magazine Details. I believe Vogue is not as good with interesting stories and subjects. but as i always do, i recommend you to go to a store and skim through one first IF this is your first time buying this magazine.


title: GQ is great for pictures, NOT FOR READING!!

text: ok so i just bought my first issue of GQ this month. compared to other men's fashion magizens, like Details, it is HORRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!! all i suggest someone who is thinking of buying this magizine for the first time, go check it out in a store first because i was VERY disappointed


title: Not a great man magazine anymore

text: Not a great man magazine anymore, i spent my money to buy ads. wont buy it anymore since i've been ordered it for 10 years.


title: Articles of interests

text: I like the magazine for fashion as well as for the informative news articles.


title: Most Notable in Style . . . .

text: Reading and Learning the Fashion Tips of "GQ" magazine is a MUST in todays' World of Glamor & Glitz! Inside details give you a Broad Focus on What to Wear, and How To Wear it. Whether it's<br />"Dress for Success", "Casual Friday's" or "Going BUFF!" this magazine Helps you Do It with a Sense of Style.


title: month old magazines delivered late

text: I am receiving a magazine that gets delivered on the 26th of the month and is an old issue each month. I am trying to find out why this is happening but haven't yet. Also the first issue was Feb. and I bought the subscription on Feb 25th, when the March issue was out and on the selves. So now they say my subscription will end in Jan. 2010. Received March issue on March 25, not right.


title: What a joke

text:
I knew that this magazine was had gone down hill over the past few years, but WOW.  I completely expected it to be 75% full of shallow garbage, crap fashion, and stuff the average 99% can't purchase, but cmon.  30 pages of ads before reaching the letter from the editor?  I thought there would be SOME decent articles in here, but all of the writers green, inexperienced, lazy and ignorant.  After reading through 3 issues, I canceled**.  If you want a REAL men's magazine, try Maxim (can't believe I am saying that).

**By canceled, I mean processed a request through Amazon.  Seller sent an automated message back "cannot be processed at this time".  Not worth the grief of fighting it for 9 dollars though...


title: Great

text: Like it a lot


title: Must for Men

text: Every man should subscribe to this magazine. The articles are intelligent. The fashion is accessible. The Interviews are timely. The pictures are provocative. All in all, worth every penny.  Also check out the "New Sex Now" dvd for as equally progressive ideas.


title: Five Stars

text: Takes a while to get it in the mail, bit the magazine is great


title: This magazine is not for gentleman

text: There is nothing about gentleman in this magazine. I used to read GQ and thought I would start again. Got my first issue and I don’t think I saw one suit in it. The best outfit in the whole thing was for a banana republic ad…it’s just men in women's clothing. It literally couldn’t be more feminine, unless they just used all female models. As verified by other women. I’ll give it another issue, but if it’s the same I’m just gonna cancel the subscription.


title: Great Magazine, just don't subscribe.

text: I bought a one year subscription through Amazon and have been receiving issues a month behind.  If you want the latest GQ magazine, go to your local drug store and pick one up.  I guess the discount doesn't entitle you to have the current issue, you get the leftovers.


title: The worst customer support I have ever encountered

text: Missing digital and print issues. After reaching out countless times all I have ever received were the same generic replies that my account could not be located. After sending further information to help them verify my account ( which I am flabbergasted they do not already have just by accessing my surname ) I received no further communication. So my problems have never been resolved. So I am voting with my money - no way I am renewing my subscription. Stay away.


title: Another great  read

text: Magazine was fast to ship, with all of the timeless great advice you would expect from GQ.


title: GQ, MOY,NFL

text: CANCEL  MY SUB.....YOU ALL CAN GO TO HE DOUBLE L.


title: GQ has lost touch...it’s a shame

text: GQ has lost all touch these days. Am I really going to wear a “dusty pink top coat” out on the town? What about a pair of yellow and black tiger striped “wild moccasins.” No? How about a  dark green “western suit made in linen-polyurethane fabric?” My goodness what has happened to smart style suggestions for the mainstream male? This is why I didn’t renew my subscription. I look at issues from 4 years ago and I don’t recognize what I’m seeing these days. I’m young and embrace change...but no matter how much avant-garde bs you bombard me with, won’t influence my buying decisions. Practical, REASONABLE, fashion forward suggestions used to be the norm. I see this nowhere anymore.


title: Arrived quickly

text: I placed an order and started receiving magazines only a few weeks later.  Fast processing.


title: Great periodical

text: Very high end magazine


title: The price is 💯

text: Love GQ


title: Not impressed

text: This magazine has really changed. Not a fan anymore.


title: Not the magazine it was

text: I remember reading this magazine as a teenager and in college, so I thought I would subscribe again now in my mid-twenties, but I've been really disappointed. It's become a magazine that's overly filled with ads, lacks in well-written, well-thought-out articles, and most importantly to me, has become overly political with a clear agenda one way. I didn't read this magazine growing up for these things, and I'm certainly not subscribing to it now for this. I wish this magazine would find its roots again, identify a clear vision for it hopes to be for readers, and move away from this sub-par publication that it has become. Needless to say, have canceled my subscription.


title: Why did they discontinue this in America?!?!

text: I've had the opportunity to read this magazine while being depployed to Basra, Iraq with the British military.  Every issue that came out at the NAAFI store I took up the chance to buy it.  This magazine is nothing short of amazing.  It is much better than the American version that was unfortunately discontinued.  Its filled with hilarious articles and beautiful women.  I just wish it didn't cost so damn much to subscribe to the states.  If you get the chance to stop by a local Barnes & Noble pick up an issue and check it out.  You won't regret it I promise!


title: Damn good magazine

text: I have read GQ Magazine for almost 9 years now.  This is by far my favorite magazine to resubscibe to over and over again.


title: its all in the details.

text: It is a incredibly dense and provocative magazine. I would recommend the magazine who likes informative news with class! The company treated me with respect and dignity and everything came well. It was neatly packaged and was highly presentable.


title: GQ Magazine

text: This magazine subscription made a great birthday gift. I got it at a good price.


title: 5 stars for delivery, 4 for the magazine

text:
Initial delivery was really quick.  Amazon said something like 6-8 weeks for the first issue, but I received it in 2-3.  I definitely recommend ordering this magazine through Amazon.

The magazine itself is kind of disappointing.  A lot of ads, not much content.  But then again, it is really cheap.  Get it after sampling a couple issues at a library or store to make sure you know what you're getting.


title: I actually wouldn't ever read this mag EXCEPT

text:
The New Yorker's ex-film critic, Terrance Rafferty, writes for GQ on occasion and he's the best in the business.

No idea what prompted his transistion to this mag, but there you go. Maybe they're trying to raise the bar a little.


title: spotty but interesting

text: Harper's seems to go back and forth between featuring articles with fairly decent critical thought, and shock-value wackiness (their famous Index is a great example). I subscribed to this for two years, let it lapse, and think about resubscribing occasionally. Works as a fun suppliment to other magazines (Atlantic, New Yorker).


title: this magazine is ok

text: yeah it has alot of information of whats going on and good samples of colone but the too many pictures of guys


title: Fashion Forward

text: Knowledgeable fashion-forward


title: Best Decor magazine.

text: Elle Decor is of course giving the latest in home decorating. 😍


title: Buy a clown costume and save yourself some cash

text:
If you like:
- Clothes no one would ever where in a normal setting
- Spending too much money on clothes no one would ever wear
- Ok at best journalism
This is the magazine for you. And they’ll also renew your subscription without your way so


title: for every sports lover

text: covers all of the hot topics in all of sports. great articles, amazing pictures, awesome interviews, and lots & lots of stats. what's not to love?


title: a must for any fashion loving man

text: covers everything a man needs to know: clothes, cars, music, movies, women, etc. definitely recommend it for all of the men out there.


title: BEST EVER!

text: This is my all time favorite magazine of all time. It can appeal to everyone! It has articles ranging from sports to cars to clothes to relationships. Love it more than anything!!!! I have read every one since 2001!


title: GQ Magazine

text:
We think that GQ still has alot to offer men looking to stay on top of the fashion trends, they always have a fresh new attitude and look

[...]


title: Boring and repetitive.

text: Boring and repetitive. Not sure how this magazine lasted so long. They recycle articles every couple of years. Don’t waste your time or money.


title: 6-8 Weeks?!?

text: I ordered the magazine over a week ago. The subscription won't begin until Nov 4 -Dec 4. What type of electronic processing takes 6-8 weeks?!?!? Not doing this again.


title: Terrible

text:
I have read GQ for almost 25 years and it is shocking how terrible the magazine has become in the last 2+ years. I love the magazine has tried to be more inclusive and diverse, BUT there seems to be no focus on substantive content.

GQ used to me known for excellent journalism, fashion and humor. Nothing remains. It seems that the focus of the magazine is a complete reflection of the editor in chief, Will Welch and his narrow vision of what the magazine should be. Will Welch is completely clueless on how to speak to multiple generations of men.

I canceled my subscription and can't see myself renewing anytime soon.


title: Absolute garbage.

text: GQ is garbage!


title: The men's magazine for "men of letters"....

text: GQ is still the definitive men's style magazine, but it's also much more. The monthly mixology column is slowly helping me build a bartenders guide that is informative as well as useful, The Style Guy is keeping me from looking like an idiot, and the fiction and features are keeping me full of interesting stories to help me sing for my supper. The bottom line is this: if you want a magazine with guy advice... but don't want something as snarky or "hip" as Maxim or FHM then GQ has just the kind of class you're looking for.


title: magazine good, however i never receive the issues even after ...

text: magazine good, however i never receive the issues even after i called numerous times to change address and inquire into no deliveries


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine


title: unfair subscription practice

text: I love GQ magazine. However, Amazon, or the subscription service that it uses, engages in what I believe to be an unfair and dishonest practice. When I purchased my subscription, I was informed that I would not receive my first issue for over two months. However, I was sent an issue after only two weeks. But this issue was over six weeks old and I had already purchased it. Then, a week later, I received another past issue that I had also already purchased off the newstand. In my opinion, this practice is meant to move old "dead" issues and is a dishonest method of attempting to fulfill Amazon's obligation to new subcribers. And, as I said, when the purchase of a subscription is made, new sbuscribers are told that new issues will not be sent for two months. As a result, unnecessary newstand purchases could be made in reliance on this information.


title: GQ Magazine is always informative

text: Every man needs a subscription to this magazine. Clothes don't make the man but it never hurts to have such great help.


title: Wouldnt order again

text: More ads than fashion,no good articles


title: No Longer a Gentleman’s Quarterly

text: Having been a subscriber and reader of this magazine on and off for at least twenty years, I find that the magazine has changed. The change in my opinion is not favorable due to frequent style suggestions and articles on gay male interests. (Purses, clothing more suited for women.) If the title is going to remain Gentleman’s Quarterly then leave the more feminine interests to the other magazines more suited for that.


title: Not interested in being bombarded with leftist politics. Thanks.

text: Please try to keep this stuff off my feed. It's offensive. Thank you.


title: They’ve Lost Their Minds

text: I’ve subscribed and ‘read’ GQ for many, many years.  It used to be great.  And I have been suffering with the editorial changes for roughly 2 years (maybe a new editor?).  Today I canceled my paid subscription - they’ve officially lost their minds.


title: Not impressed

text: This is the first time I ever ordered GQ. I got my first my issue pretty quickly. As for some of the articles in the magazine, it seems like they would write about anything to just put in the magazine. Not renewing subscription.


title: Not the magazine it was

text: I remember reading this magazine as a teenager and in college, so I thought I would subscribe again now in my mid-twenties, but I've been really disappointed. It's become a magazine that's overly filled with ads, lacks in well-written, well-thought-out articles, and most importantly to me, has become overly political with a clear agenda one way. I didn't read this magazine growing up for these things, and I'm certainly not subscribing to it now for this. I wish this magazine would find its roots again, identify a clear vision for it hopes to be for readers, and move away from this sub-par publication that it has become. Needless to say, have canceled my subscription.


title: Just din't get it

text: Seriously... My main problem with this is the shipping. They consider shipping in Guam,USA as international when we use USPS. so i waited for 5-6 weeks for my first issue when i received it, the front and back were torn. And sadly since that day i haven't received the replacement which is the September 2010 issue and the other issues after that. So messed up. And by the way Conde-Nast told me that for these situations "I" should contact the post and sort out the situation. Nice customer service right?! Just plain awesome


title: Amazing

text:
I have looked through Cosmopolitan, Marie claire, Mens health etc. but this is the most "empty" mind numbing magazine I have ever read, I just paid $5 for it yesterday, opened it when I got home and discovered the first 15 ( that's right I said fifteen!!!) pages of advertising!!!

Why would anyone buy this magazine??


title: Receive much later than arrives in store

text: I bought this for my son and every issue has been about 2 weeks behind.  We most most likely would not renew. He loves the book but would like to get is at the same time it arrives in the stores not a few weeks later.


title: Funny!

text: I'm a girl and I keep getting this magazine I don't know why cuase I never signed up for it.. but then i read it and it is so funny! I know it's a guy's magazine but still it has a comedy in it.


title: Not renewing

text: Stopped getting the magazines but still was paying


title: Five Stars

text: I really loved this, but can no longer afford to get it.


title: Keep tabs on your religious liberty!

text:
LIBERTY: A MAGAZINE OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM

LIBERTY is the only magazine that I know of that is devoted exclusively to the relationship between church and state.  The magazine is bi-monthly and each issue is about 30 pages long.  It is one of many periodicals from the Review & Herald Publishing Association, which is a Seventh-Day Adventist (SDA) publishing company.  Although it does feature some articles on the SDA church, it should by no means limited to that audience.  It also has articles on everything from Islam to atheism.  The magazine's position is in favor of religious freedom for all Americans, although contributors to the magazine may disagree on what that means.  Other topics covered are the role of religion in political campaigns and the implications of recent Supreme Court cases.  Occasionally, an issue will reprint an article from another publication as well.

Although the magazine isn't very thick, it has quite a bit of useful information and I would highly recommend it if you are interested in first amendment issues.  What other magazine can you get for less than $1.40?

This magazine should not be confused with the libertarian political magazine LIBERTY.


title: Another left wing rag

text: Another place where the left-wing brain-dead can sing in unison their songs of envy and hate for anything truly American. I personally like to read it for a good laugh or to find excellent dumb quotes from the low-information, low-IQ, 'anything goes', hate-the-rich' followers.  It's fun to watch these cult leaders give out the free gay Koolaid laced with hatred and envy to the thirsty zombies.  Then they comment after drinking it and slur their dumb narrow minded rhetoric to each other for high-fives.  yeah, this is a good one.


title: Investigatory Journalism at it's best.

text: I'm a radical centrist and the Nation is  hard left leaning, but that doesn't mean I don't find it useful.  It's ideas help define the issues for me and is grist for my mind.  It excells in Investigatory Journalism which has become exceedingly rare these days. I also  like the format, on paper, with colorful pictures, and graphics, and in depth articles. I used to enjoy reading Liberal Opinion newspaper until they forlded, but now The Nation is my first choice for political analysis.  I like the paper format, but wish it had a slightly bigger spread.


title: It came without a break.

text: I'm happy with the subscription.  I continued to receive the magazine without interruption.


title: Great publication!

text: I ordered this magazine for someone in prison; someone who loves to keep up with  the world "outside".<br />This woman is thrilled with her subscription to The Nation and I am pleased I could order it for her.


title: A Must for Our Household

text: We have subscribed to Alaska Magazine for years in our household. It is a must have for us. It helps keep us in touch with Alaska - my heart home and as a former resident of Alaska.


title: Buy from Barron's directly

text: Love Barrons and bought this deal from Amazon and paid $99 for 7 months. If you by Directly from Barrons you can get 1 year of both digital & print for 149.00. Needless to say I am less than impressed with this purchase experience from amazon. I should have done better research so there is not one else to blame but myself. Never again.


title: Extremely poor customer service

text: When publishers are trying out ways and means to improve service and use Information Technology, Barron's in a world of its own - antiquated technology, rudeness and arrogance. While there is no issues with their editorial content, their customer service is the worst.


title: Excellent long forum writing. Intelligent, diverse, thought provoking

text: Intelligent, well written long form articles seldom written these days. Hard to find capable writers these days. The Atlantic ranks up there with wired and national geographic for magazines with a thoughtful perspective.


title: Tech topics with a conscience.

text: Quality writing. Broad topics. Tech heavy with a smattering of social commentary.


title: Thoughto

text: Erudite
