title: Helpful, well-done

text: Great magazine for someone new or experienced with gardening. Covers beyond the vegetable garden with helpful tips and products for your home and landscape. Provides healthy alternatives to dealing with pest and problems without environmentally-damaging chemicals.


title: Five Stars

text: Good product


title: Four Stars

text: A delightful magazine for everyone 40 and over.


title: I have subscribed for years, this was very easy.

text: I like the fact they give you a heads-up as to when the subscription will be done, so you will remember to deduct it from your checking account. The magazine is a good one for all men.


title: Lots of ads

text: desired more recipes than advertisements


title: Love the magazine

text: Love the magazine. Would like to get on kindle but the kindle reviews don't look supportive enough for me to drop the print subscription.

title: I lost 30 lbs with this magazine's routines

text: I saw several reviews putting down the women in the pictures and had to put in my two cents.  I lost 30 lbs in 3 months using this magazine's workouts and eating tips, and no other source of input.  I didn't bulk up, but there was no doubt I was fit...and the name of the magazine is Fitness, not Bulky Muscular Women.  A few years after losing that weight, I decided I wanted more muscle.  It is extremely difficult to put on the kind of muscle that you see in Fitness RX and other women's muscle mags.  The women you see in Fitness, Self and most fashion magazines are a far more realistic example of what a woman will achieve with the average 3 - 5 x's a week, one hour or less fitness routine, and normal healthy eating without risky and expensive supplements.  Just because these models aren't flexing doesn't mean they don't have muscle.  The supplements and routine it takes to look like the women in the more hard core magazines usually isn't worth what it does to your body.


title: Excellence & Reality

text: Along w/The Economist & Epox Times & NYT & The Guardian & Forbes, a balance of what is going on & where/ why, an excellent read; that is, excellent when granted the fact that 90+% of all media {visual AND published} is owned ["strictly for profit" & therefore drasticly 'slanted']<br />by five {5} entities.


title: Good ideas

text: Very inspirational design ideas.


title: food and wine review

text:
This is my 2nd. attempt to have issues of the magazine mailed to me. I like to read about both food and wine but most of the time the recipes and the wine choices don't fit in my budget.

Sorry!


title: No magazines

text: I haven't received any  Readers Digest issues yet.  I'm sure I will like it when and if I get it.


title: Too many ads

text: Too many ads


title: great magazine

text: I have been receiving Handyman for years now and just love it.  I just bought a 2 year subscription for my son-in-law as he is a new homeowner.


title: Love

text: Enjoy this magazine and price on amazon it even better


title: Having to "live without" isn't so bad anymore!

text: Living Without is a great magazine with a lot of helpful hints, stories, and of course delicious recipes.  Any limitations you have felt about food will quickly disappear with this periodical because clearly, their main focus is OPTIONS.


title: Essence well worth it.

text: I've always been a fan of essence magazine, love it!!!!!!<br />Thank you Amazon for the special $5 offer.  Very nice


title: A magazine more about the ads than the content

text:
Muscular development is one of the better magazines out there on the subject of body-building, but although the average issue is almost an inch thick, there are usually only 10-20 pages of worthwhile content. Don't get me wrong. The content in those 10-20 pages is great. Very informational and entertaining to read. Great health and sex tips as well as nutrition and training information. Where this magazine goes very wrong is the advertising. While nearly all magazines are going to have advertising, Muscular Development goes way overboard. Many of the advertisements are 6-10 page ads that appear to be an actual article, but are just an oversized advertisement for the latest and greatest label on the same stuff every other company is selling. While the advice in every magazine is very good, they allow advertisements that completely contradict the information inside. The magazine comes off as hypocritical in that sense.

Although Muscular Development has the best content of any of the body building magazines, the excessive ads forced me to cancel my subscription.


title: The magazine is reall for young families

text: It is best suited for young families.


title: Five Stars

text: Excellent magazine.


title: Dont order from this

text:
Says $5.00 per issue for 4 issues total $20.00
I ordered in August recieved 1st AND ONLY issue in October and nothing since.
So i paid $20.00 for only 1 issue when i ordered 4 issues.
Not HAPPY


title: Too general

text: Toooo general.  Not enough about native plants or planting for where you live.  Stopped reading before my subscription ran out


title: Not worth it

text: Magazine has turned into advertisements and same old hokey articles.  I tried to cancel it several weeks before renewal but it wouldn’t let me.  Sadly, this is a waste as the magazines go right in the garbage.


title: Five Stars

text: great reading

text: The first issued received was quite poor and nothing like some of the older issues in the past. You either have a new publisher or some very poor talent on last month's issue. Hope things get better or the same as in the past.


title: It's  what  it says, MAD !

text: I think  everyone  knows  about  the magazine .  My daughter  love's  it.


title: I havent got it yet!!! but found it once  in Safeway magazine racks.

text: Great magazine that has realistic and practical projects.


title: Something to read on the can.

text: It’s a nice magazine. They show you step by step how to do things around the house.


title: Love this method of getting a magazine works for everybody

text: This turned out to be a Christmas present for one of my friends who for whatever reason, has trouble finding Vanity Fair in St. Albans, WV.  Needless to say, I ended ordering one of the specials for myself.  WE BOTH LOVE IT.


title: So much better than video games.

text: Just what I was looking for my Grand son loves these.


title: Excellent but there is better

text:
For a long time I subscribed to both ANALOG and Asimov's Science Fiction but recently decided to drop the Analog.  The stories are not as good in my opinion (as evidenced by fewer awards won), and a lot of space is given over to "fact" articles which didn't much interest me, especially since a lot of the news presented in those articles I had already heard before.  So when it came time to cut my budget, I chose to keep Asimov's which offers approximately one more fiction story per month.

Of course if Asimov's did not exist, then Analog would definitely be on my first choice.  Both are fine literary magazines.

Analog - 4 stars
Asimov's - 5 stars


title: Five Stars

title: Fast delivery

text: As described


title: unsteady delivery but pleased with magazine

text: I received my first issue six weeks after ordering but then went four weeks with no magazines. Then I received three issues one day. Maybe the kinks have been worked out.


title: turn off Netflix and read an issue of The New Yorker

text:
Actually, my biggest complaint about this wonderful magazine is that finishing this week's issue before next week's arrives is a challenge.

I'm a native Californian so don't know about all things NY, but it's not really important.

In-depth articles about Covid. A single-page review of two movies to watch during the pandemic (one from 1972 and Christopher Nolan's "Tenet"). And most cartoons never seem NY-centric or become dated.


title: Great Magazine

text: Great magazine


title: Really funny satire

text:
but only got one copy I think I paid for more than one copy.

Jacqueline Battle


title: Absolutely My Favorite Photo Mag

text: Definitely my favorite photography magazine, a bit expensive, but well worth it!  Informative articles and interviews, great project ideas and instruction, beautiful images, detailed reviews...  Look forward to receiving it every month.


title: Awesome and Practical

text: Simply explained.  Helps you figure out the 'why' of cooking so you can create your own recipes or just follow the excellent recipes they have.  Doesn't use hard to find ingredients and lists substitutions.


title: Poor editorial quality. Cover heading's subject matter Missing from actual content. Dissapointibg, misleading.

text: This magazine has poor editorship, no (effective) customer support, and a webmaster email address that does not accept mail. If you can accept these shortcomings, you may find some enjoyment reading the articles. I did not.


title: Terrible, just an ad magazine

text: The magazine is just ads zero content


title: I only received 1 magazine - buyer beware

text: I only received 1 magazine in my subscription.


title: Great recipes

text: I have been getting this magazine for years and it has always had great recipes. May have a little more ads over the years but still great.


title: Great magazine, strange start to subscription

text: I received three issues last week of this magazine...March, April and May. I subscribed in February. I'm guessing that all three counts toward my year subscription? Other than that, the magazine is great! Glad I subscribed. It's got shopping ideas for women of all ages and budgets.


title: Five Stars

text: Who could say anything but the best about National Geographic


title: Five Stars

text: Very Satisfied.


title: Buy, buy, buy.

text: Totally materialistic. Super girly. Teenage topics. Nothing worthwhile. Opens up a barrage of junk mail. She could do so much with her money!


title: Favorite magazine

text: Our entire family reads this magazine cover to cover. The absolute best way to learn about animals, nature,other societies and cutting-edge science.


title: Great writng and great topics.

text: Well written stories and articles that you won't find anywhere else.


title: Can't live without my TV Guide

text: I have been ordering TV Guide for over 35 years, I always go to the horoscope first....Then I use it as a placemat when I eat at the coffee table, love to see all the picss!  My cat loves to chew on it to get my attention!


title: Love it

text: Love the ideas for decorating. They have great color photos and the latest styles for everything.  It's a great deal really.

title: SPOTTY SERVICE

text: I subscribed to "Vanity Fair" here on Amazon because I know & trust Amazon very much. Alas, the magazine always arrives two weeks after it has already been on the newsstands and I feel as if my subscription doesn't really tater to Condé Nast. I do, however, love the magazine. It's the service that I do not like.


title: Three Stars

text: a gift


title: Worth it

text: Helpful in my search. No issues


title: Beautiful magazine for reference

text: Very inspirational for painting in watercolor.<br />A variety  of artists are featured and I find useful information. I have never checked out the kindle format since I prefer having the magazine as reference.


title: Easiest magazine subscription ever

text: Easy


title: good read

text: good helpful articles


title: Print is too light

text: I purchased a subscription for my father as a gift. He said that he has a hard time reading the magazine because the print is too light. It is not just a problem with him as people have written in to the mag with the same complaint. Will not renew.


title: Five Stars

text: Bought this magazine for our grandson, he loves it.


title: Great Magazine

text: This is one of the gems on the market, loaded with coupons every month.  Highly recommend.


title: Five Stars

text: my granddaughter loves it.


title: Fun Magazine

text: Was a gift. Person wanted it and really likes reading it. Also enjoys the pictures. Great for someone who likes surfing


title: Stopped getting magazine - less than halfway through my 12 month subscription

text: I contacted the magazine NUMEROUS times to ask them why I was no longer receiving their magazine and they never bothered to fix/address/remedy the situation.  I probably got 5 magazines from my "12 month" subscription.  With generally declining magazine subscriptions, as people move more and more to digital, you'd think they'd jump at the chance to help a customer who wants to subscribe.  But no, they do not.  Will not subscribe again.


title: Four Stars

text: good price


title: Four Stars

text: good mag


title: Love the funny, touching stories & humor features

text: Love the perfectly edited stories- First thing i do when recieving this magazine is tear out ALL of the advertising- any pages that do NOT have a story or feature on it goes in to the recycling bin ASAP...makes it easier to put in my purse!  I usually try to make the magazine last at least a week.... then i pass it to a sick friend...


Virtually my favorite magazine of all time. No advertisements!!! Great recipies!! Wonderful, accurate, objective equipment reviews!! All in all an essential publication for anyone who enjoys cooking.


title: The essential NYer.

text: If you haven't read the New Yorker you should. Insightful reporting, riviting commentary, thoughtful fiction and a NY calendar that can't be beat.


title: Love this magazine

text: Love this magazine. Lots of good information about day to day items we buy, and how to get the best value for your money.


title: Healthy Bites...

text: Great magazine with lots of imaginative ideas for easy to prepare, healthy meals. The articles genuinely aid you in thinking outside the box when it comes to preparing meals that are both delicious and healthy... which is not a contradiction in terms.


title: Recipes Galour

text: A plethora of recipes from all categories; appetizers, main courses, deserts, etc... The recipes are primarily 'light' but there are many desert & main course meals that are 'hearty' and not for the dieter in pursuit of lean cuisine. Overall a good source of suggestions for meals one might not normally think of. My one concern is that many of the recipes are based on products only available in the U.S. market. I work overseas, and receive this subscription there, where many of these products are unavailable.


title: THE BEST MAGAZINE EVER

text: This is the greatest magazine for both articles and pictures.  I have given it for gifts for years.  Easy ordering through Amazon.


title: I like it

text: Great little projects and articles, wonderful for a homeowner.


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine LOVE IT


title: Great magazine

text: I love PM. It has a wide variety of topics in every issue, each of which are relevant and interesting.


title: Never got the magazine

text: Much like everyone else, I waited far too long and never got the magazine.  What a sad organization that cannot provide the product you pay for.  I waited 5 months - each time I called the magazine they said that the issue 'was in the mail' to me.  In fact, when I most recently called they said I only had 4 of the 6 issues left on my subscription, even though I had never gotten one!  The one positive is that customer service quickly and easily refunded my money - probably because they have to do it so often from the same complaint.


title: This ship is sinking....

text:
I have been a loyal subscriber to Maxim for about three years now, and I am sad to say that I am not going to renew it this time around.  Maxim used to be an irreverent, smart and caustic publication that never took itself (or anything) too seriously.  It has become the very magazine it used to make fun of: full of ads, full of aftershave and $200 Prada running shoes reviews.
What most bothers me these days is the humor; most jokes revolve around bashing Canada and are utterly predictable.  Gone are the days of great sarcastic, iconoclastic commentary, in its place is the omnipresent... Canada bashing.  Vary it up a little guys!
The women are usually pretty and/or famous, but I agree with other reviewers: there is WAY too much Photoshop going on.  As a result, most of the girls look the same: like plastic dolls.
So what is good about Maxim?  There are still some solid articles or perspectives that you won't find anywhere else (The Kursk and Saddam Hussein articles come to mind), funny interviews, albeit with too many softball questions asked by an interviewer who thinks he's funny.  I'm interested in what Ray Liotta has to say, not the writer's [manhood].  It is still a good bargain at their current subscription rate, but you'd do just as well going to their website, which is still free.


title: Check you subscription on magazine befor renewal.

text: Magazine fine but be careful with subscription.  Renewal notice indicated that subscription expires Dec. 2019. Expiration actually Dec 2023.


title: What planet are these people from?

text:
This is a horrible magazine.  Apparently, this mag is for millionaires and other new world order social elites.  Often times, these guys would review "cheap hotels" starting at "only $799 per night" or other such nonsense.

Instead of interesting stories that inspire me to travel, their stories are pretty boring.  It is full of ads for fancy watches, and first class travel...with people with huge couches having fancy dinners drinking champaign.  You got to know that travelling like that will set you back $10,000-$15,000 just for the air faire.

If you are part of the normal world...where the spirit of travel is going there, getting down and dirty with the locals, and appreciating local foods and cultures (Rick Steve's style)...then give this mag a skip.

If on the other hand, you want to travel 5 star hotels...going on the most outrageous tours for the most expensive things...then maybe this is for you.

I would recommend Afar Magazine.  The stories are much more engaging and the recommendations are more down to earth.


title: Escapism

text: Nice glimpse into the fancy life every month. Some great recipes & crafts.


title: ABSOLUTELY LOVE

text:
Been a subscriber for 2 year. I just love when this magazine comes in the mail. It is filled with beautiful and colorful photography and lots of helpful hints for around the home.

On more than one occasion, I have seen something in this magazine that makes the perfect gift for one of my friends.

The recipes and the crafts are simple but beautiful. I just can't express how much I love this publication. Highly recommended!


title: Five Stars

text: favorite magazine


title: Wow, what a poor publication

text: Poor mainstream music critiques, interspersed with wannabe socialist political diatribe. Just cancelled my subscription after 2 issues. Not even worth the $3.99 for 12 issue I paid.


title: This is a purchase of the item and it’s delivery

text: I cannot say anything about the speed of delivery of the periodical. But since it is technically a Newspaper the timeliness of the information has relevance. I am not happy.


title: Wine Spectator

text: The Wine Spectator is the ultimate guide to wine.  As a magazine, it gives trusted up-to-date information on wine and related issues.  I look forward to each issue and always find something interesting.  I would definitely recommend this periodical to all wine lovers.


title: Disappointed

text: I’m know there were big issues at sunset mag but wasn’t expecting this.  The pages are crammed with small text, over done with ads, and the stuff that made Sunset great are apparently a thing of the past.  So sad.


title: A wonderful magazine - amazing photography!

text: A wonderful publication - information is interestingly written and photography is wonderful.  Helpful for encouraging curiosity and reading for elementary aged children.  Our boy is loving it, and receiving mail with his name on it is always a hit!

title: Five Stars

text: My 7 and 9 year old love it


title: My grandson loves this magazine!

text: My 6 year old grandson really likes this magazine.  The quality of the magazine is nice.  I would recommend it for Star War fans.

title: Alright Book, Didn't Work for Backpacking

text: We spent three months in Europe over the summer and brought this book with us so that we could find campgrounds to stay at.  We tried to contact two of the campsites listed, and they were both closed indefinitely.  All of the rest of the campsites that we looked at in the book were very hard to get to by car.  We were traveling by train and bus, and taking a cab to a campsite would have cost a fortune.  The pictures in the book are great, and the campsites all looked like they were awesome, but it just didn't work for our purposes.


title: Martha is a good thing

text: Great magazine.


title: I'm still waiting Closer !

text: I love this magazine and decided to start with a 6-month subscription.  Honestly though, it is a weekly issue, why does it take so dang long for a subscription to start?  I ordered a 6-month subscription on January 3, 2017, still waiting and probably will still be waiting until the beginning of April!  It just doesn't make any sense to me !!!  Waiting patiently for my first issue!  Hope I don't buy a double before my first issue arrives !


title: Love the magazine.

text: Love the magazine. Just wish it was wrapped in a sleeve.  By the time it arrived, it was in pretty bad shape.


title: Enjoy the magazine

text: Enjoy the magazine.


title: Quality magazine

text: Great stories, excellent photography. When I get each issue I read it through cover to cover. Please God, don't ever let this magazine go 'online only'. That will be the end of civilization if it does.


title: Great magazine on Crochet

text: Got this for my Mother and she loves it. Patterns from beginner to advanced crochet. The best part is the chart available on substitution of yarns. We do not have much of a selection locally and cannot afford the 'fancy yarns' that many patterns call for today. Nice to have patterns that use standard yarns, plus the substitution chart when the pattern calls for something 'fancy'. Good purchase and I will be renewing this for my mother.

title: Could have more detail but also good for a quick break at work

text: While I would like more detail and where the authors of the articles got their information, this is a good magazine for a quick, easy read between Smithsonian issues, and introduces topics that I might want to look into a little bit more.

text: As a parent of a pre-teen, I've found no other magazine that addresses the age between Sesame Street and Young Miss.  This magazine does it very nicely.  It gives my daughter lots of ideas for the holidays year around and she reads it cover to cover at least twice during the month. It's a favorite around our household!

title: Great Read

text: Love the magazine. Great tips, products, and articles. My father and I really look forward to receiving this magazine. I believe it's a 6x a year. Seems that way any way. Might be 12...I just anticipate the next issue that bad. Great present for a fisherman in NC or surrounding states.

title: Very informative

text: This magazine is a wonderful resource for anyone attempting to garden in Texas' diverse and sometimes challenging climate and soils. Well worth the price.


title: Hooked from my first issue.

text:
I just renewed my subscription to Glamour because they are one of the only magazines I have ever read that feature both a significant amount of affordable items (i.e. less than $100) as well as intelligent, relevant articles about women AND men.

Sure, they have their "off" months, but I really appreciate that ads don't tend to dominate the magazine as much as others (especially for as low as the subscription rate is).  I also can't wait to see the "Do's and Don'ts" every month!

text: I subscribed to ReadyMade because I was always impressed by the issues I looked at on friends' coffee tables. It seems like the last year (of course the year I subscribed) had fewer cool projects/ideas than I remember seeing in old issues... but there is always at least one gem in each issue. It's totally worth it for that one awesome project/idea. (Although I'd like to see it reach its true potential again someday!)

text: I'm pretty sure my little sister enjoyed this. I forgot to ask her if she wanted me to renew it this year. But honestly, it's the kind of thing she likes, and I'll probably buy her a subscription anyway. Rolling Stone is pretty damn dependable when it comes to quality.


title: Five Stars

text: I enjoy this magazine and seeing the new trends.


title: Not sure I see the point

text:
The magazine is all about graphics quality in movies and games and the like.  It's not really technical enough for high-end knowledgable industry types, and it's not really broad enough for a casual audience.

Frankly, the magazine is kind of boring, and I get the feeling flipping through it that they are really struggling to find enough quality ideas to make the issue go each time.  Having said that, there's only been 2 issues and perhaps it will find its legs.  I likely will not renew.


title: Preachy, dull, and  not what I expected

text: I subscribed expecting design ideas, some recipes, and a dose of the Joanna Gaines creative personality. Instead, the interior design is boring, skimpy and mediocre photography, and laden -- and I mean laden -- with heavy-handed "inspirational" profiles of strangers. The preachiness bleeds into every article I read. An article on re-discovering water as a healthful beverage? The "Art of a Purposeful Gathering"? Someone needs to throw out their New Age dictionary. There was no personality in the personal notes and think pieces, just an abundance buzz words. This was my fist issue - Spring 2020 - but I should have read a few issues before subscribing. Maybe other issues have more content -- but this one is going straight into the "Donate to library" box.  The recipes were okay, but nothing new, more like '80s dinner party fare. Joanna has plenty of edge and creativity in her television persona, but it doesn't show up here.

title: Great for Christmas gifts

text: Great for Christmas gifts! I bought this subscription for my grandmother last year and just renewed it.  She's been very happy with it.


title: Sent to incorrect address

text: The magazine arrived at my home instead of my brother's in SC! This was a huge mistake that I now have to spend time trying to fix.  My brother loves this magazine and the purchase was a renewal of my gift to him last year.


title: The best price ever

text: The best price ever. I have subsribed to it for years, every year it was going up 10-15 dollars a year. It was 115 before i decided to try Amazon


title: Five Stars

text: Love the magazine, informs u more than what is best. You look at everything in a different way


This magazine is very informative about all issues important to women at this significant time in history. This makes it quite relevant reading in addition to fun and easy fashion and beauty tips.


title: Check it out!

text: It's a great magazine!  I've always enjoyed receiving it.  I just wish Amazon would let others know this magazine is NO LONGER making magazine in any shape or form!<br />Closed December 27th 2017

title: The Worst Kids' Magazine Ever Created

text:
Once I found myself among a group of parents who were talking about this magazine. One person said that it was the worst magazine he could possibly imagine. Another said that she put it in an envelope and paid to send it back with an angry letter. I thought, "What could possibly be so bad?" Then we received a subscription as a gift. As other reviewers have noted, the entire magazine is advertisements for things like junk food. The "articles" in the one I looked at were also like advertisements, being articles about the newest Disney movie or the science of video games. It was terrible. I called immediately to cancel even though I was not paying for it. Did not want that junky thing coming to my house.

We subscribe to National Geographic for adults and love it. I never ever would have expected something so bad to have the name National Geographic on it!

Do not subscribe!

title: A wonderful Publication

text: This is a wonderful publication. It is much more than a report on recipes it is really about the science of cooking. I enjoy the gentleness of the writing and down to earth conversations it presents. What a wonderful magazine this is.


title: Every month makes North Carolina proud.

text: Without a doubt one of the best magazines out there. It is a delight each edition. It is what a publication ought to offer.

text: Live Steam and Outdoor Railroading has been part of my reading since getting into the large scale model railroading hobby 10 years ago. It is always a great enjoyment to sit down and read every page when it arrives in the mail. Anyone interested in building and running large scale model trains would do well to include this magazine as part of this fantastic hobby.


title: for ALL ages!

text: awesome magazine! Got it for my Grandmother, but great to go through with the grandkids too!


title: Looks good on the coffee table

text: I ordered this magazine for my wife because she buys similar magazines at the grocery store and they cost a lot more than the fantastic subscription prices available on Amazon. I also bought her 'Better Homes and Gardens'.  She really likes Better Homes and Gardens.  She has stated the House Beautiful has too many advertisements and not enough substance............but she apparently likes the look of the covers since she leaves a few of them on the coffee table just for 'looks'.<br />Anyway, I told her the subscriptions to both magazines were for her birthday. She was happy. The price through Amazon saves a lot of money over her buying them at the grocery store each month.  It is a win-win for me!


title: Quality Product

text: Great quality.  Really liked the appearance of metal side of this two sided pad but found it to be a little scratchy when I moved the mouse around.  The leather side of pad felt smooth but darn it I wanted to use the metal side as it matches my Mac Pro and looks super stylish.  I tried putting felt pads on the mouse but they were just a bit too thick and the mouse wouldn't work.  This product included a felt stickers to place on bottom of mouse but I found them to be ineffective.  I finally solved problem by removing the small plastic rails on the bottom of the Apple mouse which just pop out.  I then replaced them with strips of Moleskin, which is a thin felt like material used to treat blisters by hikers.  Now the mouse glides over the metal pad.


title: Great Reads

text: Love reading this magazine


title: Colorful fluff

text: Colorful fluff, a good relaxing browse for a few minutes each issue.  Probably won't renew.  Lots of tie-in's with the TV personalities, which can be fun if you follow certain HGTV shows and/or have your favorite HGTV designers; they all appear in sundry forms with tips and advice, etc., throughout each issue.  As with most these types mags, provides a form of window shopping and dreaming; many ideas not super practical/actionable.  Instances where a reader has tried to replicate a design and proudly submitted their photo, is almost always (don't tell them) a fail.  Oh, but the paint color info is actually is useful --- they list brand and color names pictured in various designs throughout.  (Print delivery has seemed a bit sporadic, but maybe I haven't kept track.)


title: Three Stars

text: The magazine is OK...but I never received the charger.


title: TV Guide has changed so much! I miss the ...

text: TV Guide has changed so much! I miss the daytime programming feature it used to have. The print is too tiny for me as I get older.


title: and loved it. Got a subscription in the last year ...

text: I used to read this magazine several years ago when my mom got it, and loved it. Got a subscription in the last year or so and it really is not the same. I assume they are trying to keep up with the current baby boom generation but seriously- articles about the 70's ? ( the article about bowling even had pictures of a family in the 90') Dont rush it... it will be 'history' soon enough!


title: Amazing

text: The little boy I bought it for thinks it is amazing!  He loves it!


title: WONDERFUL

text: this is one of my favorites magazines...covers a lot of subjects and one heck of a lot better than the programs shown on the channel.  They lost me as a viewer...I hate 95% of the shows...sick of the house hunting crap, Holmes...I like the channel the way it was when it was first shown in USA...but I love the magazine

title: Liberal propaganda and non stop whining about how republicans are ruining the world

text: This is unreadable. I thought it was about tech but it's just mid twenties writers whining about how republicans are ruining the world. It's page after page of liberal propaganda and complaining about how bad their world is because of Trump

title: 13 year old view of the Magainze---Interesting and funny magazine with crazy facts and fun games

text: I bought this for my 12 year old son (who is now 13 and still likes getting this magazine) and he loves it.  His only complaint is that it doesn't come enough:)

title: Five Stars

text: A first rate publication at a good value


title: Great Deal

text: I used to read readers digest all the time when I was a kid and was happy to see a subscription as a daily deal for $.80 per issue. I decided to subscribe and have received two issues. It is just like I remember, the articles are informative and some are funny. It was a good purchase.


title: Good magazine

text: I love that each issue has the perfect amount of home decor/food!


title: Four Stars

text: Nice magazine. Good decorating ideas


title: all you magazine

text: I ordered this as a renewal since I already subscribe to the magazine. Between the coupons, recipes and tips in the magazine, I will probably renew each time the subscription expires.

title: Great Grandma Gift Idea!

text: I order this magazine every year for my granddaughter's birthday and she just loves getting them in the mail!  It's easy for me too since I live across the country and am not around her to know what she likes at the time, these magazines are timeless, I received them when I was a child and can remember how much I enjoyed them.  Free shipping is also a bonus since I live far from her!

title: Love it!

title: Best Magazine

text: The magazine offers politically neutral advice on a wide range of topics:  Organizing, cleaning, cooking, fashion, self-care.  Unless you think using a pool noodle as a blade guard for your saw is controversial, this is a great magazine for anyone.

title: Five Stars

text: Great farm and country magazine.


title: still meh

text: Vogue is all ads, so if you use it for paper mache like I do, it's cool. Now and then there's a good author, but the fashion is old, as they have to make it 5-10 months ahead.


Meh. Same old shallow glitz but clogs the inbox; very little thinking or edit smarts behind the rah rah in the inbox.  Style is not part of the "fashion" sales, style is the person and their intelligence shown visually.

By the time fashion things are in print, they are "old" anyhow. 6 months or more. Same old, same old dingbat buzz for the online inbox Vogue; I use the paper hard copy in my art classes to teach lighting for figure drawing (but the bony models look terrible in a painting);  and we make paper mache with it (!). I like the actual paper magazine, although the color pages are not morally responsible/ good for the environment or the compost pile...hehe. Like Vogue would care.


title: Great magazine

text: Enjoyed the magazine. Had great recipes that you can make in your kutchen


There's great articles and suggested reading material in this magazine. I subscribed with the hope of my spiritual side to be awakened. So far it's been great.

title: Five Stars

text: Waiting for first issue


title: VERY disappointed.

text: I had a subscription to this magazine. It used to focus on art, artists, art instruction and was once very good reference magazine for artists. But they got rid of old editors, brought in new people and completely changed the focus. WHY?????Now it is more like a fashion lifestyle magazine and is of very little use to real artists.<br />I canceled my subscription in disgust.


title: Clean Eating for the new year

text: I really like this magazine, interesting and with great pictures.  I'm looking forward to trying some of the recipes after the holidays time crunch.


title: Up to date info

text: Great magazine


title: I would like to simplify it even more

text: I love the magazine and have read it for years. Like M.S.Living, yes they tout the expensive, but when you're clever you can adjust! My vote is to simplify even more and make the magazine available on the Kindle. It's just as easy to read, it only saves up to so many back issues (unless you tell it otherwise) and it helps reduce clutter around the house!


title: Super easy and secure way to order Ski magazine!

text: Super easy and convenient way to order a magazine subscription as a gift, from a source I can trust with my financial information.  In an era where magazine subscription sales are often linked to scams and identity theft from disreputable websites, this is a worry-free way to do it conveniently.  I was also able to print out the order to give as part of the gift giving process--which was nice.  I purchased one copy of the magazine and attached the order on top and wrapped it.  Perfect![[ASIN:B002CT513S Ski]]


title: My favorite mag of all!

text: I love the articles, informative and entertaining.  I also love the fact that the mag is filled with tons of coupons.  I love saving and this mag helps you do just that.  I enjoy all the "real" people that are spotlighted.


title: Customer Service

text:
The magazine is great, but the product is only as good as the customer service provided.  The publications I ordered were to be sent to my brother who resides in a nursing home.  Instead, those instructions were ignored and the magazines have been sent to me.

Since I live in Florida and he lives in Pennsylvania, it is not cost effective for me to send them to him myself.

You need to review your handling of these orders (there were four (4) orders) and advise me how it is going to be rectified.

Thank you.


title: Great publication!

text: Love the pictures and articles!


title: from the  left

text: I consider myself an old time leftist--having said that I hasten to say that I find Chronicles the most interesting, most stimulating --in short--the best  magazine in the US. I have been reading it since  the 1980's  and  has always  complicated  and deepened my thoughts and responses  to all manner of situations both topical and historical. I have  always felt there  was a fair amount of common  ground between the old left and the old  right, and  Chronicles has provided and continues  to provide a intellectual environment where that commonality  can be  fleshed out. Let me  be clear: I don't  mean to suggest that Chronicles is subtly gauchiste--it most  certainly is  not. And let me add that even  if  Chronicles did not provide that common ground I would  continue to read it with pleasure. I  do not want to read simple minded propaganda. I look  forward  to articles that deepen and complicate any particular problematic. We  live in an age of cheap  shots; cheap shots  from neocons and shoddy  leftists. Chronicles is an antidote  to that madness.<br />.


title: Great magazine for the price

text: I gave this magazine as a gift to my son-in-law. He seems to like it. The price was outstanding, that's all I can really rate!


title: Awesome pictures, awesome magazine!

text: My wife bought me a subscription for Christmas and I love this magazine. The pictures published every month are breathtaking and the articles are very well written and are mostly very interesting. I like it even better now because with your subscription, you can access the magazine from a tablet and it is interactive. There are videos and online parts in the tablet version that you obviously cannot get in the print version. This is a great magazine!


title: A classy magazine for mystery lovers

text: I have always been a fan of Mystery Scene magazine and have subscribed to it for years. I also have given it as presents to at least three people who now subscribe on their own. Now that I also write for Mystery Scene, I am even more of a fan of the magazine. And I read each issue  not as someone who writes author profiles, reviews and blogs for Mystery Scene but as a reader.

title: True Fashion

text: French Vogue is a must for any true lover of fashion. Price is irrelevant...it's worth it for the cutting-edge photography of avante garde fashion and life style.


title: Good recipes and articles

text: Tosca Reno is inspirational, and one can feel her prescence in this periodical. They are starting to introduce gluten free, which shows they listen to their readers.


title: I hate them.

text: I have never been a subscriber. They spam me every day. I hate them.


title: Awesome

text: Great magazine nice projects and reviews. Thanks


title: Love this magazine

text: I love this magazine- in my opinion it is the best shelter and decorating publication out there.


title: import from Canada

text: I used to live in Canada and was a loyal customer of Style at Home. After our return to the States, I was so disappointed to find my former favorite American shelter magazines had started giving too much attention to perfectly designed spaces. That's all they ever featured. I was very glad to find out I could order Style at Home from Amazon. Yes, there are some designer pages and ads for some shops in Canada- but I still come away with more achieveable ideas for my own home from this publication than any american shelter magazine I used to get. They give you much more confidence than the others, and less pressure to hold your house up to designer efforts.


title: Looking Back

text: I love this magazine, it gives a nice glimpse into the days of old. Simpler times that we all could use again.


title: We really like Dwell but do feel that it is settling into ...

text: We really like Dwell but do feel that it is settling into a single modern mid-market style and are starting to feel like there isn't much that is actually new from issue to issue.

text: Luv the RD, very imformative.


title: late arrival

text: I’m sure I will enjoy this magazine as I’ve read it before. However my first issue from this subscription has yet to arrive


title: Five Stars

text: NICE


title: Not changed in years.

text: I've not started receiving the subscription yet, but read this magazine on and off for years.  It is what it is and probably worth the subscription price but not worth the shelf price.  Basically, like about all magazines, it's a catalog and a product promotion guide with a little entertainment thrown in, but sometimes it will alert you to a product you didn't know about and then you will create a need for said product.  And so the cycle goes.


title: Easy purchase

text: Typical photog magazine.  Nice pictures and advertisements to tell you what you didn't know you needed.


It's OK.  But I don't like ordering magazines on line as a gift because, you are automatically billed for the renewal.  I had no intentions of renewing.


title: I have always loved RD

text: Ever since I was a kid, I loved reading the jokes, now I read most of it. I have never subscribed, instead relying on others to leave them in the bathroom or at work. Finally, it was the right price! Ordered it, and had to patiently wait two months to get the first issue, but very pleased.


title: Five Stars

text: Love reading National Geographic. So informative I give it as a gift!


title: Love it!

text: Love this magazine! I like having the actual magazine over the digital version!


title: I only received one print copy of this magazine.

text: I did write recently regarding the fact that I only received one print copy of tis magazine.  To date no reply. It was a waste of my limited funds.


title: Country Living Magazine

text: Sent this to my mother as a gift.  She really enjoys sitting in her "log cabin room" and getting decorating ideas.


title: Elle!

text: Great style magazine.


title: Creative, original, positive, and healthy.

text: Our daughter started reading this magazine when she was 8 and she is now 10 and still growing with it.  The content is well-produced, thoughtful, and a refreshing counterpoint to the relentless messages of early sexuality and shallow consumerism our children and especially our daughters must struggle with every day.  My personal preference would be to have more science and math topics in order to fight that stereotype as well, but New Moon can't do it all, and what it does do, it does very, very well.  Thank you for publishing this magazine.


title: Wonderful!

text: This magazine gave great facts, tips, and was a super fun read! I look forward to it every few months! Definitely recommend!!!


title: Five Stars

text: Amazing stories and funny jokes


title: Three Stars

text: ok


title: Not enough content

text: Too many advertisements


title: Meh

text: Too many advertisements


title: Good magazine but not a good gift

text: Bon Appetit is a good Foody magazine for both meat eaters and veggies alike.  But if you want to give it as a gift, be sure and order your subscription about 2 months in advance.  You seriously don't get the first issue until about 2 months later (which I don't really understand.)


title: Worth the wait

text: Always something relatable about readers digest stories!


title: Five Stars

text: Great magazine...started up sooner than expected


title: Love it

text: Great magazine.


title: Enjoyable historical articles.

text: My husband used to have a subscription to wild West. I always enjoyed reading the articles. That's why I got another subscription for both of us. We both like the interesting articles.


title: I love it and...

text: I am a typical mom...This magazine is not for Betty Crocker type moms, but it is for 21st century moms who want a parenting magazine that speaks to us like we are still thinking and intelligent women.  I find the articles very interesting (they are on topics that I am thinking about in my everyday life, living "greener", childhood vaccines, etc.), and love the Cookie Dough section (where you get coupons or deals for on-line stores).  I read it cover to cover.  Got it for free from Amazon and am thinking about re-subscribing.  I really don't understand all the negative reviews.


A quick easy pattern source with the newest styles. I can always count on this magazine for easy gifts and stash busters.


title: I Love This Magazine

text: I admit it-I love HGTV and watch it whenever I can: at the gym, at home, when travelling. I dream of what I can do to my home and garden and get great ideas. The magazine is like the channel. It is full of new ideas and products, practical tips and tricks that even I can do. Keep it up!


title: They did what they promised

text: Received this magazine right on time as promised. I love it. Thank you.


title: Great magazine.

text: My husband loves this magazine.


title: Excellent learning magazine

text: This is an awesome magazine for my 4yr old grandson. We gave him a Ranger Rick Jr subscription last year, but his mom thought changing to Ranger Rick this year would challenge him a little more. He (his mom and 2yr old brother)read this cover to cover doing all the activities. It sparks his interest in many things enough that he wants to go to the library and find books to tell him more. He gets so excited when a new issue arrives.One of the best gifts I ever gave.


title: not what it used to be

text: but still worth have W in the house.


title: Great Magazine

text: If you love fine art you have to get this magazine.  it shows what is going on in the art world with all the great artists.  I don't think I will ever be able to throw an issue away.


title: ESPN Insider

text: Like others have said, I only got this for the espn insider. It is way cheaper getting it on here instead of paying 40 a year on the espn website. I am not a fan of the magazine itself. It is basically like going to the website and clicking links randomly and reading whatever comes up. The articles are made for people with no attention span. They have changed recently to make the magazine have an overall theme. I am still not a fan personally of it but I am glad they are trying to change from the originally feeling that it is just random articles slammed together in a magazine. The espn insider is the real value. They have exclusive articles everyday and I enjoy the rumor part of the website that is updated a few times a day. It is worth getting if you follow sports on the internet and like having up to date information daily. You need your customer magazine number to log in on the website.


title: Readers digest

text: Love reading readers digest. Great articles


title: A must read

text: Love the articles (esp. restauarant reviews) & the Xword puzzles. Its like a visit back to the New York area.  Frank Rich and the others writers are right on point.


title: Targeted and deceptive advertising within magazine

text: My daughter loves this. I find it annoyingly easy for children to order extra stuff without parents knowing. I had to call the company and tell them to put a block on mail order purchases.


title: Even at $5 it is a waste of money.

text: Very few pages and topics are  useful for me. Often I do not bother to even look inside the magazine. Probably the worst magazine I even bothered to subscribe. Save your money and subscribe to my favorite magazine now, " In These times." The cartoons of Trump are worth the subscription rate.


title: Motor Trend magazine

text: Motor Trend is a very good car magazine.  About 15-20 years ago, it was only "fair" in comparison to Car and Driver, and, Automobile.  Now, it is a good, largely objective mag.  As stated in prior reviews, there is some subjectivity; however, all car magazines I have read do have SOME objectivity -- we do want their opinions. They do test high-end autos (Porsche, Aston Martin, Ferrari, etc.); but, that probably comprises only 10% of their tests.  If you really want to read about high-end cars, read Road and Track.  Know that the 4 American car magazines prefer sporty driving and handling autos of all types.  Generally, if the car is not reasonably quick and doesn't handle fast-paced or back-road (I do not mean off-road) driving well, it will lose points in a comparison.


title: Five Stars

text: Brilliant!


title: New magazine for me

text: I have only gotten one magazine so far but I love it and can't wait to get another.


title: Will not renew

text: I won't be renewing this magazine.  I recently collected several of Rodale's books on gardening and loved them.  So I was excited to get the magazine, but was disappointed in the articles.  The articles don't have an any depth to them.


title: ... edition all delivered in a timely manner at a great price. What more could you want

text: Just what I wanted--access on my Kindle and print edition all delivered in a timely manner at a great price.  What more could you want?


title: Comforting

text: If you are vegan or heading that way, this magazine will provide great info and a measure of comfort from knowing how many others are out there like you. I'm talking about people who do no harm through their dietary choices. Get this magazine, you won't regret it.


title: Five Stars

text: Great, informative magazine.


title: My grandson Loves the mag.

text:
This is our 4 yr. of Nat. Geo. for my grandson. He is almost ready for the next age group. It encourages reading, animals, environment  and science
Kids love to get snail mail. He looks at and reads it cover to cover over the month and has saved his copies.
I will be thrilled to give him the next age up version.


title: For my bike enthusiast.

text: Purchased for my son. He says that a good one. He seems very pleased.


title: Great mag

text: We've been reading this for a couple of decades. Lots of great content.


title: Four Stars

text: sophisticated and beautiful magazine.


title: GREAT DEAL

text: I subscribed to this magazine for several years paying the full subscription price. Then, Amazon had a magazine special for $5.  I subscribed and am very happy with this deal.


title: MY FAVORITE MAGAZINE

text: General information is great. Food recipes are the best.


title: More than Mechanics.  Almost a popular  magazine.

text: Times have changed from its purely mechanical stuff many years ago.  More on interesting general news.


title: Viciously Biased

text: As a devoted follower of politics, I regret that I must write that I've cancelled my subscription to Newsweek. Newsweek does a great job with behind-the-scenes accounts of political events and its layout and graphics (pictures, graphs, charts, etc.) make issues easy to understand.<br />But I have never seen such biased journalism before in my life. It failed to report the whole story on issues like the 2000 election, stem cell research, and coverage of the Catholic Church. The periodical literally did NOT explore opposing viewpoints; it only reported its own (and it did so as if its own opinions were fact)! I will never again rely on Newsweek for an honest account of the news. Try US News & World Report instead.

text: The few things I actually liked in this magazine did not warrant the expense. I would not purchase again. There are many blogs that cover the same topics in a much better way.


title: Five Stars

text: Sent as a gift.


title: My fav

text: Love this mag


title: Good Stuff!

text: If you have more than a passing interest in firearms and reloading this magazine is for you. A step above the novice rags without the typical sales pitch. Well written, just wished it came once a month.


title: Rolling Stone is onr of the best magazines out there!

text: Need music coverage along with savvy political insights? Rolling Stone has them both! Mat Taibi is one of the most astute political writers around.


title: The goldstandard in magazines

text: simply the best magazine there is!


title: I decided to test out the magazine with 4 issues ...

text: I decided to test out the magazine with 4 issues for .99, then get charged. I only got 2 and it tried to charge me. No way.


title: okay mag

text: Too many advertisements and this mag also includes ALL of the U.K. . I was looking for articles about England specifically.  Of course lots of travel to U.K. ads throughout magazine. Too many for my taste. Beautiful pictures however. Probably will not renew.


title: Sure Not My OLD Prevention

text: Am I reading Cosmo or Style??? Certainly not Prevention!! Articles about fine lines, brighter looking eyes, which eyeliner to use, which make-up to use. Ads for cat litter, cereal, Massage Envy, doggie dentures and body lotion. There are more ads in this magazine than articles. It's almost half the size it used to be and totally worthless as far as I am concerned. Very little "prevention" in there--mostly beauty and product promotion.<br />I would be cancelling my subscription if I had paid full price. VERY disappointed.


title: Not like it used to be

text: Been reading "Good Housekeeping" for years and loving it. Haven't subscribed in awhile. What a change! Way too much advertising and not enough substance! What happened??? But for $5.00, I guess I shouldn't complain??????


title: Five Stars

text: Love, love, love this magazine.  I sit down & read it cover to cover iimmediately when received.

title: Format

text: Didn't care for the format.


title: comment

text: I really like this mag.  Great little articls and recipes.  I can't put it down until it is all read in one day.


title: review

text: My daughter-in-law is always doing something tho their home.  It has been a money pit for them.  She loves alot of the ideas from this mag.


title: As serious as travel magazines get

text: I had previously subscribed to Budget Travel, but have liked the stories in Traveler. It tends to skew to adventurous places and really showcases the character of a place. It's not concerned with the most luxurious digs (like Conde Nast Traveler) and not really into fluff pieces or gadget reviews (like Budget Travel). Part of me likes that, but you might also want some of those quick little pieces  to read in short moments too.


title: Good content but definitely unpolished

text:
I like the character of this magazine. It's got kind of an alternative vibe. Most of the reviews are for bikes that won't/don't go mach 1. Occasionally, though, I have seen some pretty glaring proof-reading errors. It's clearly not the "establishment" bike magazine (*cough* Bicycling), but it's fun to read and will offer some interesting tips and stories you won't find elsewhere.

Update (2/15/2014): Unfortunately I've been reading an increasing number of articles that have blatant copy editing mistakes and generally awkward language. While I still enjoy most of the reviews and articles, there's just no excuse for this kind of writing in a magazine that is published every TWO months. There's plenty of time to get it right, BT.


title: Look forward each month

text: I love getting this magazine in the mail. I immediately flip to the "upgrade" section to see a bunch of new and innovative gadgets (and toys when the holidays come around). Then I'll read some of their car reviews. I like that they keep a couple of cars for a number of months and tell you how they're doing over time. I also enjoy articles that help you understand the basics of scientific developments, like a recent article on the science of fusion energy. It's mainly geared toward guys who like to fix or tinker with machines, or just enjoy knowing how stuff works. It's cheap and brief and it's probably my favorite magazine I receive.

text: This was a gift for a child who adores getting mail each month. He really enjoys the magazine.

title: Love the reciepes

text: Everything I wanted and more for $5


title: I love it!

text: This magazine has always had fun and easy quilts to make that don't tie you to your sewing machine or cutting board.


title: Mail subscription

text: Had this for years and I love it.  Don't want the kindle edition I like to have this with the paper patterns.  Best quilt magazine I have had.  I used to subscribe to all of them and this and Mccalls are the only two I keep coming back to.  They have the best patterns and are very easy to follow.


title: Five Stars

text: I got exactly what I asked for, thanks.


title: Three Stars

text: Needed more about ALL coastal living.


title: Limited time frame...

text: I am very dissatisfied with the fact that it only covers a limited time frame in the morning and does not specify that anywhere to make us aware before ordering. I would have known had I read the reviews but who honestly would think to read reviews about the tv guide???


title: Appear money hungry over everything else.

text: I’ve gotten this magazine off and on for over a decade. Photos and tips are great, but to say they’re a “low ad” magazine is just not true. Almost every other page is an ad. I was shocked and disappointed to see a cigarette ad this month, very irresponsible. They must be desperate for money. They relentlessly pester you to renew with every issue, even if you’ve  signed up for two years subscription already. Because of these things, I will never subscribe again. Sad, this used to be a great magazine.


title: Golf anyone??

text: For my dad for Father’s Day. He loves it!

[[ASIN:B00079RO7G O, The Oprah Magazine (1-year)

It's OK..  Actually, I prefer "Vanity Fair."


title: Keeping up with today's world.

text: My wife enjoys the magazine very much. Has a lot of variety and interesting articles about today's world.


title: Do not order this magazine!

text: I ordered a subscription for my grandson several years ago and have tried everything to discontinue. My grandson is now to old for this magazine and is still getting it every other month and I’m still getting a yearly bill for over $40. I’m frustrated and angry!


Love the pictures


title: Great Magazine

text: Great for the handyman.  Lots of useable ideas and projects.  Would buy again.


title: Love this magazine

text: Love this magazine !  Great recipes and tips from top Chefs.  Pictures that look so delicious you  c an't wait to try the recipe !!


title: A must for any Thomas fan

text: Engaging activities, posters, coloring, mazes, plus number, letter & pattern recognition, counting, addition and writing made fun. Son was obsessed with Thomas when he was younger. They've fallen to the wayside a bit since the discovery of Legos but he still looks forward to getting this magazine.


title: too many ads not enough content

text: I had this subscription for a year and at first was so excited about it.  However this magazine disappoints.  I thought the articles were really lacking content and depth, and everything else was just pretty superficial overview of a hotel or a place.  The dramatic oh of disappoint hit me about a 1/3 of the way last year when I received the month with Maui revealed or something like that.  I saved it as I was going to Maui and about a month or two later I opened it excitedly and got this what felt like a two page article full of....nothing helpful.  I get cooking light and every month they do an article each issue about a place and restaurants of course.  Even their articles give you a better idea of checking out a place than this magazine.  Between these unhelpful articles this magazine is 90% ads.  You have to make an attempt to find where the magazine is between all the ads.<br />Big disappointment.  Did not renew subscription.


title: Five Stars

text: As expected


title: Nice to now have it as a regular

text: Haven’t received this magazine in a couple of years.  Nice to now have it as a regular.


title: Ordered in November, deliver estimate February to March!

text:
Ordered this and another magazine through amazon on November 15. Been waiting and wondering and finally remembered to check and find out what is going on. According to Amazon, I can expect to start receiving these sometime between mid-February to mid-March.

This is absolutely unacceptable and ridiculous. I will never order another magazine through Amazon given the horrible turnaround time. I could have got it for the same price elsewhere - went through amazon for the "convenience" which turns out to be illusory.


title: Awesome

text: Interesting


title: Great Magazine

text: Always enjoy when it arrives each month.


title: Great food recipes

text: Love Martha Stewart she always has great recipes


title: Great DIY magazine

text: Great magazine helps with ideas


title: Good deal

text: Good price.  Love the large print


title: My sister really enjoys....

text: Got this as a gift for my sister. She recently became certified in massage therapy, and she said that this magazine is like getting a new text book every time it comes in the mail (in a good way!!!) She said it's very informative, and she's learned a lot. She enjoys getting each new edition. It keeps you on top of new and evolving techniques.


title: I only received 3 of my 6 issues.

text: Not only did I only receive half what was advertised, I turned off auto renew as soon as i signed up for the trial offer. Somehow, it was switched back on and I was charged $19.95 for another year about 4 months later. Seems pretty shady. I canceled, again, and got my $19.95 back.


title: ESPN as a gift

text: Recipient really likes the sports articles but doesn't like  that the advertising and advertising photos overpower the magazine.


title: Nice but not worth it

text: A bit too pricey for what you get...just another version of Dog Fancy in terms of articles, photos etc.


title: Wonderful Magazine

text: Great new recipes to try.  All have been excellent.


title: Good magazine

text: Have gotten some good tips and information from this magazine.  Recieved the magazine for 1 year now and will renew my subscription


title: It is fun

text: I use this product for home decor and where to find fun flea markets.


title: Do You Like Ads?

text: Way too many ads in this magazine and not enough travel content for the regular traveler.  I won't renew this subscription when it's time.


title: Tacky and cheap presentation, charged for a renewa despite repeated  cancel.te

text: Was not at all what I expected. The magazines were printed on inferior/thin/cheap that torn apart with each issue.<br />The information in the issues was a lot of large pictures, with very little written information. My grandchildren were very disappointed and disinterested after the first 2 issues.


title: Dissatisfied & Disappointed

text: I have received WH since the 70's. It used to have great workouts and recipes. It seems now in order to get the workout or read the interesting articles you have to go to WHMag.com. I've tried this but unable to get the articles. I'm very dissatisfied and disappointed in the magazine now. It has way more advertising, sex articles, & expensive clothing suggestions than ever before. I am paying for the workouts, but have to go online to get them and am unable to get them. I guess I need to cancel after over 30 years of reading the magazine.


title: Five Stars

text: love it


Grandson just loves this.  Sadly he only ever received one magazine.


title: Great magazine for guitar players.

text: We received the magazine one month early and really find it informative and interesting.


title: 3 year subscriber canceling

text: I’ve been subscribed to this magazine (formally backpacker) for a few years. Since the acquiring of and change to outsider, the magazine is now trash.  The recent edition had stories that had nothing to do with the outdoors. The stories were boring and way too long. Font and visualization has changed for the worse as well. Backpacker used to be about one thing and that was backpacking/hiking. Now it’s barely that and more about cycling, skiing and other shenanigans like their streaming service. I’m a hiker/backpacker and I want to read about hiking, backpacking and nature. Thankfully I was easily able to cancel on the magazine website.


title: Would send Birds and Blooms  to anyone who  embraces nature!

text: Love this magazine BIRDS AND BLOOMS!! Full  beautiful photos with informative tips for plants and birds!


title: Small magazine, up to date coin values

text: Learning about specific coins


title: Ingredients - not your typical pantry items!

text: I couldn't wait for my first issue to try out some new recipes. It finally arrived today but am so disappointed!  Although the recipes look delishious, they contain ingredients that are not common ingredients in your pantry.  Some of them I can't even pronounce.  What a waste & I love Racheal Ray.


title: Prompt response on new magazine subscription.

text: Was extremely pleased with the quick start-up response on this new magazine subscription.  I have already received the first two issues of this monthly in less than 2 months. Very impressed.

text: I love my adult hat!


title: Incorrect subscription renewal and threatening letters

text:
First of all, I like Amazon, AND I like the magazine, Popular Mechanics. I still read it when I go to my local library. But the Customer service for the subscription department is a nightmare. The magazine was purchased a year and a half ago, as a $5 a year subscription, with auto-renewal for $5 a year, through a lightning deal at Amazon. When it came time to renew, the subscription rate was more than double our agreed upon subscription rate. I wanted to contact the subscription department for PM, but they can only be reached by email, fax, or snail mail. What a hassle!
As far as I am concerned, at this point, I am no longer legally obligated to renew my subscription, because Hearst magazines failed to live up to it's part of our contract, so I left an expired credit card attached to my Amazon account so they could not charge me. Plus I mailed back one of their invoices, with a note explaining my frustration. No reply. But more invoices came. Six months later, I am getting threatening letters from Hearst magazines, telling to pay for my renewal, AT THE WRONG RATE!
Customer service does not have a phone number, so speaking to a human being is impossible. At this point, a new email complaint has been sent, by me, to Hearst. Also, I notified Amazon of the issue with Hearst. (I still like Amazon very much, but I will not be using them for magazine subscriptions anytime soon.)
Just an FYI. Beware the Customer service for the subscription department at Hearst Magazines.

Hopefully this gets resolved.


title: Interesting Articles

text: Marie Claire does a good job of providing interesting articles. I like that their fashion sections usually do have affordable (under $100) suggestions from stores where I shop.


title: Always a good read

text: Readers Digest has been a favorite of mine since I read my parent's copies. In this age of digital everything, a lot of us oldsters like to hold paper reading material in our hands, so I still like magazines. I do recycle them.

It used to be much better. Something has changed in last few years. Not as clear or helpful. Other services are available which compete in specialized areas, internet helps people compare and get content other places.  Their strong support of the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, without reforming the CFPB to benefit the consumer is a bling spot they need to address. The CFPB takes in  hundreds of millions of dollars of fines for the CFPB's own benefit, not helping the consumers harmed, but use consumers financial abuse as their whipping stick to stuff their bank account and gain more legal clout. The next time Consumers Union walks up the CFPB multi-million dollar crystal stairway they built in their offices to have a chat with Richard, perhaps they could fight for the individual consumers vs large monetary awards to payoff another quasi-government bureaucracy in Washington.


title: not intersting

text: not my style. i made mistake


title: Very good magazine, no doubt.

text: The magazine is full of good references for any artist. Also puts you in contact with what others are doing in very different styles of painting. It's also complemented with a very good website. I'm very satisfied with this subscription. You always get something out of every issue.


title: Saveur Is great for the novice and connesuier

text: This has been one of my favorite magazines for years! It combines travel stories that accompany delicious recipes for things you’ve never heard of! And plenty of stand alone recipes and kitchen tips. It’s superb.

text: I love this magazine. I don't dare through any past issues!


I have trouble to receive this like Newsweek.

title: Misleading product description (former LTF member)

text:
I've been a Lifetime Fitness member in the past (would be still if they had locations in my area), and I couldn't be MORE disappointed.

"Experience Life is your guide to a healthy way of life. The underpinnings of fitness - self-knowledge, self-esteem, clear priorities, enthusiasm and will - come from the inside. We'll help you build a better body, and a better life. "

So basically fitness, nutrition and mental health.  Well, a guide to fitness and nutrition should be based on science and this magazine has a history of broadcasting pseudoscientific content and even featuring a notorious pseudoscientist on their cover. Maybe put someone on the front that has an MD, RD, or PhD and make sure they're repeating good science (for good science, see PubMed). As for mental health.  Telling people they should be afraid of things that are perfectly safe (evaluated by many public health agencies including the FDA, WHO, FAO, USDA, EPA, etc, etc, etc) without fact-checking inspires unwarranted fear and anxiety where none should exist.  Instead of providing a soapbox for sensational fearmongerers, this magazine should shift gears and do a science-based approach to fitness, nutrition, and mental health.  It may not make this vast fitness empire money, but it would promote fact-based guidance on nutrition, fitness and mental health. Until I see that, I will neither be a lifetime fitness member or a subscriber.

text: Got this because of George Strait articles.


title: reviews

text: I was going to order this magazine for the holidays but after reading all the negative reviews, i will not. It used to be a great short read magazine.  Too bad what ads have done to all the magazines - even for such a deal as $5.00.


title: this offer is a fraud

text: I ordered  a one year subscription to Veranda. I received the first issue in February. I have not received any issues since. I contacted the publisher, the automated system said they would ship the back issues . This was in August. They said the July/August issue had not been published yet?? I have received no back issues. This is September. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS MAGAZINE. THIS IS A FRAUD!  evidently since the virus arrived at Hearst publishing, no one is working.


title: July August 2020 issue

text: This is the best magazine issue EVER. Almost no advertisements, all pages have how to's and very helpful information. I am stunned.! the publisher must have listened to the complaints.. there is nothing to complain about in this issue. It is one to save for future reference. I definitely recommend this magazine


title: Fabulous!

text: Have loved RD forever!


title: The Best is Getting Better!!!

text: Casino Player is a monthly subscription magazine that tries to be all things to all casino enthusiasts, and usually succeeds. From the mathematic and probability computations for the video poker fan by guru Bob Dancer, to Jean Scott's wonderful column The Frugal Gambler, which gives first-timers and seasoned players alike excellent information on how to get comps (which are freebees---sort of---that the casinos give their customers.), this outstanding publication delivers first-rate information for travelers to Las Vegas, Atlantic City, and Tunica to use to make their stays more enjoyable and profitable. Recently, Casino Player has seen fit to substantially overhaul their content, adding more first-rate columnists such as Basil Nestor (who deals with gaming's colorful and illustrious history), and adding more coverage to new areas of the country as gaming (not gambling; the correct term these days is gaming) continues to expand into new markets such as Southern California and the Upper Midwest. The results show a decided improvement in both the magazine's content and range of coverage, though not without some sacrifices along the way. Unfortunately, two of the magazine's best columns have recently been lost in the shuffle: The Aggrivated Gambler, a forum for dealing with unpleasant casino experiences and how to cut through red tape, written by the very fine writer Melissa Fine; and Mystery Tourist, a nonbylined column which explores the offerings of a different resort every month under the guise of anonymity. However, the new additions more than make up for the losses. Hopefully, now that coverage is being reapportioned, more attention can be given to such oft-neglected (Las Vegas) gems such as the Monte Carlo, Luxor, Treasure Island (or TI, as it is now called) and the Stratosphere; a lovely profile of local Coast Properties fave the Orleans just appeared in last month's issue, so perhaps steps are being taken in that direction. In any case, whether you are an experienced or neophyte gamer, you will want to subscribe to the new and improved Casino Player ASAP. With all their recent upgrades, there's no doubt that the best gaming magazine in the industry is certainly getting better!!!

title: Degraded to junk status. It’s all about profit now.

text: 7 year subscriber and bye bye. Each issue is more poor visually than the last. Stories are junk. Hard to read ( see pic, 7 PT type runs into dark brown splotch. Then the black on dark green was expected- ugh!).  And to get the good stories you have to upgrade. Loyal reader gone.

title: not weekly any more, now monthly

text: Used to be a worthwhile magazine, with info about what's coming soon. Now it's not as timely, and not as much information, and for those who had paid ahead, a year not gets around 10 issues instead of 50, for the same price.


title: Real Simple?

text: Don't get me wrong..I love the two hard cover books, Real Simple Solutions and Real Simple: The Guide to Organized Living. They are gems. However, the magazine simply betrays it's words. As one rater stated, it seems like the reader is cajoled into buying un-needed expensive products, and my god..the magazine is cluttered with ads and inserts, plus it is very hard to turn the pages and read. I realize ads are necessary, but this is extreme, especially for a magazine that supposedly promotes a less complicated and cluttered life for it's readers.


title: Great Information provided for gardeners and more.

text: Addresses how to plant, control insects in the most natural way without poisons. Good for people who are recyclers and like organic planting.


title: Worth it!

text: Informative and timely and the dog pictures are pretty cool too! I’m enjoying my subscription.

title: BUY A SINGLE COPY FIRST.

text: BUY A SINGLE COPY FIRST. THEN MAKE UP YOUR MIND TO SUBSCRIBE. You can usually find a copy of most magazines at a book store.It really helps when deciding to commit yourself for a years' worth of magazines. Especially when you have two wonderful opposing points of view of the magazine. I personally felt that Ranger Rick fell right it in the middle of capturing childrens' interest in animals as well as conservation.


title: A tip

text: It's Oprah magazine, you know what to expect.  My tip is for the renewal...  got a great deal on the initial subscription, but when it was up they wanted a lot more.  By the 2nd or 3rd renewal notice (and after cancelling) the price was reduced substantially.  They offered a year of Oprah, plus Redbook, plus a free tote bag (not received yet) for $12.00.  Never renew on the first notice!

text: Never received the scarf. Magazine isn't as good as it used to be.


title: Don't order magazines through Amazon

text:
A third party, Synapse Services, handles magazine orders for Amazon and the company is less than competent.

My address changed after placing the order for this magazine. It's been five months and we've not received an issue. I've called Synapse twice and both times the customer service reps seemed confused by my dilemma. The first time I was told the matter would be researched and they'd call me back. They didn't. A week later I called again and was told it would be another five to ten weeks before we received the magazine because of the address change. I said I'd rather have a refund, but was offered only a partial refund. I then asked for the publisher's contact information, to make sure we'd be receiving all six issues, and was told that Synapse represents too many publishers for them to keep such info. They were no help at all.

Please save yourself the aggravation and order direct.

title: Fantastic gift for 18 mons.-3 year old

text: I bought this for a friend's child's 2nd birthday. My friend's daughter LOVES getting this every month; she will sit down and "read" it cover to cover. My friend enjoys reading the short stories and helping her daughter explore the photo/picture features. A huge hit --well worth the money. A great gift for small children if you don't want to buy yet another outfit they'll quickly outgrow.
