title: CR should do as they ask others to do.

text:
CR presents articles, such as May'14 2013, p 44, on "Survive your stay in the hospital," where they reference their ratings of hospitals, and give a link to their website to get the full report.  But the website has a separate subscription fee, not mentioned in the article.
This is a little like buying a camera or a car, then finding out you must pay an additional fee to get a copy of the owners manual, something that CR would take any reviewed product to task on.  In effect the "article" is an advertisement, not a report.

CR should be taken lightly.  They may not be "paid" for their reviews, but they clearly put their particular spin on them.

title: A disappointment

text:
I used to subscribe to Self when I was in high school, over 10 years ago. This past year, I wanted to revamp and improve my fitness and exercise regime, and I remembered this magazine as a good fitness resource when I was a teenager. So I subscribed, and was flabbergasted by the first, and continuing, issues that I received. Was this the same magazine I subscribed to years prior? Did I make a mistake with the name? While indeed there was some advice on fitness and nutrition, I found the majority of the magazine was devoted to giving me tips on how to lose those few extra pounds (I"m quite trim and don't need to, thank you). The magazine also seemed to presume that I had low self-esteem, and therefore took it as their task to boost it for me.

Either the magazine has changed, or I remember it differently. I should not have subscribed and will continue to try to find a magazine that is devoted purely to nutrition and fitness.

The only reason I didn't give this magazine one star is because the few, very few, exercise regimes they highlight have been good and useful. There was one particular stairway routine that I use on a regular basis. I just wish they could have more of this! Editors: please stop thinking that I"m only exercising because I need to lose weight.


title: Gift

text: This was what my niece requested for Christmas, and she was very specific about this magazine. I trust she is pleased.


title: good magazine

text: Worth you while to buy this Magazine.  Saved me on a few items already.


title: national geographic is a must in every house.

text: this magazine is what a parent needs to teach and educate their kids,and this is what a kid needs to explore and learn about things,thank you


title: Great deal on the best business magazine

text: I have always enjoyed Forbes and have read it off and on since I was a teenager working in my father's store.  The common sense approach to business and free markets is the best in the business.


title: Fun magazine

text: I like this magazine because it's fun and easy to read .  It also has a little bit if everything in it and it's well organized.


title: O, The Oprah Magazine

text: Just good information from Oprah.  I think there is something in each magazine to make me think about how to incorporate the information into my own life.


title: Still a great magazine.

text: It's been around forever, but it's stil relevant magazine today. Great content and great customer service. I received my first magazine within 2 wks of ordering, and two days later, I received the previous months copy, too.


title: What’s up?

text: I can purchase a brand new sub for $5 but my renewal is $15 I don’t think so . .


title: Shpping address

text: I got this magazine for my daughter, Shanice for Christmas. She was happy to receive it in the mail but her name was not on the address. I specifically ordered it on her name Shanice Kloss. It's not a big deal since she really liked the magazine but she will be happy if you could change the shipping address to her name. Thank you.


title: Five Stars

text: Informative magazine!


title: Values

text: That magazine is the thick as half as before. 90% ads too


title: A short attention span?

text:
I’m not disappointed in the product itself. But I had great vision of reading the magazine to my kids and enjoying it together. But it didn’t hold their attentions long enough to get through half a copy.

I as a kid, remember loving Ranger Rick.


title: Not Worth It...

text: I subscribed to this magazine shortly after becoming a parent. I am in a Vice President level role and still do not find this magazine useful. It is very thin and nearly always arrives torn, which is frustrating to say the least given the infrequency of its publication. The content is as light as the magazine's weight. Regardless of whether you are in a professional, executive or in a 'regular working mom' role (as some readers here have described), you will not find much that empowers, uplifts, inspires or helps with practical tips. You can find better information using Google, blogs, The New York Times and the list goes on. Save yourself some money and skip this magazine.


title: Four Stars

text: A lot of great recipes.


title: Poor customer service

text: Magazine is great, BUT we purchased a one-year subscription (11 issues) and issues stopped 3-4 issues short of that stated expiration date. Back and forth with Synapse. Denial. Said my subscription expired short of one year. Very unhappy with Synapse. Caution to others.


I rarely have time to sit down and enjoy a magazine but when I do, this one is a treat.


title: Best Crossword-Puzzle Magazine

text: This is my favorite crossword-puzzle magazine because each issue offers 90 Easy, Medium, Hard, and Challenger puzzles. Lots of folks want only Easy puzzles, but what's the point of that? I want puzzles of differing levels of difficulty. I particularly like theme puzzles. For example, puzzles with clues answered by various book titles. This magazine does not offer lots of puzzles with that theme, but the few it does offer are excellent. As to overall level of difficulty, I would say that most of the puzzles fall into the Easy to Medium hard category. I also like the size of the magazine--5 and 3/4 inches wide by 9 inches tall. This is perfect for working puzzles in bed before going to sleep--the primary way I use the magazine. The front and back magazine covers are soft and flexible, which also facilitates solving puzzles while sitting up in bed. Working puzzles before sleeping helps to take my mind off the day's many problems. And, finally, I hope that solving puzzles will keep my mind healthy, active, and strong during my long creep into senility.


title: kids love it

text: kids love them jot filled with ads like other magazines for kids

text: mom loves it


title: Great magazine for the DIY

text:
I've gained so much knowledge from this magazine I don't know where to start.

It's great for any level DIYer and saves a lot of time and money for shopping for tools.

I highly recommend this for any person that wants to do DIY projects.


title: good ol' housekeeping?

text: It has been a while since I read Good Housekeeping, and apparently it has been too long.  I'm not sure how I feel about the tips from the 50, 60 and 70's in the magazine.  It is interesting historically, but is it really relevant for today?


title: Great stories and photo shots

text: Vogue can do no wrong. I'm melting over this September issue. Great stories and photo shots.


title: Five Stars

text: One of the best cross stitch books.


title: Five Stars

text: I bought the subscription for my husband for Christmas and he loves it!


title: Real nutrition experts instead of all the internet garbage "experts."

text: Has current reliable health info. I follow their findings religiously, like millions follow the advice of all the quacks out there.


title: Easy reading Yoga

text: Yoga Journal includes much more than just yoga poses.  It also has reviews on the latest yoga related products, health care tips, and recipes.


Got three issues all at once (November, December, and February...not sure what happened to January).  So far I've read November's even though is 3 months late, and have really loved it.  The articles are great, the poses are great--can't wait to dive into December's!


title: They tried to rip me off.

text: They automatically renewed my subscription without my permission. Had a very difficult time getting rid of this magazine, multiple calls and emails.


title: Gift for my sister

text: Got it for my sister. She likes it.


title: Good

text: I like this magazine but when I received it in March I got February and January issues, too. I figured my subscription would start with March. I had already purchased Jan & February issues at a store.


title: Change is Good But Not Yet Great

text: The magazine is still wonderful. Like that not all the products are ridiculously expensive. I do still miss the fact that mag no longer has home stuff. Domino wasn't a good enough add-on. Read a couple issues on my tablet but just wasn't the same. Plus some of the clever interactivity was just annoying. I'm sure I'm in the minority but I love the ads. Its where the best clothes are and the tablet edition didn't have them all. Lastly, the free infinity scarf is fine. Not quite "Lucky" standards but it is free.


title: To Me its One of a Kind

text: I've been reading EW since issue one, and subscribed most of that time.Movie, TV, Music, and Books. My favorite mix in a weekly nugget.  I somehow thought that auto-renewal would lock in a price, but I was mistaken.


title: Five Stars

text: Magazine full of good details and helpful hints!


title: Stopped delivering with multiple issues left!

text: my headline sums it up. I stopped receiving it and they started sending something ridiculous instead. not recommended.


title: Ahhhh, surfingggg

text: Good magazine, nice pics. The magazine came about 1.5 months after I ordered it.  They sent me Sept, Oct AND November all at once, which is kinda lame.


title: Awesome read!!

text: We love the plans that come in the magazine


title: worked as great gift to my wife

text: My wife is big on Yoga, she practices every day and when she got this magazine she loved it. the content and material in it are very good, as per my wife, and she is even considering to renew even before the subscription is over.


title: Educational,  time away from digital media

text: My grandson loves it. We're renewing the subscription.  Packed with information  and let's the child read rather than be on a tablet all the time


I have been reading Popular Science and Mechanics since I was 8 (I am 65) Love them


text: I have been reading Popular Science and Mechanics since I was 8 (I am 65) Love them


title: Five Stars

text: Wonderful magazine for Buddhists & secular people alike. Words & articles of wisdom & interest for everyone


title: Excellent Magazine

text: This is an excellent magazine. More articles than ads and even the ads are better than the other magazines.  I had stopped buying magazines a few years back as they were filled with ads, uninformative and took an hour under a hair dryer to finish. O magazine took me two days to finish reading.  Excellent magazine, buy it for a friend who likes to read Cosmo.


title: Terrible

text: I only received one magazine in 4 months! Terrible.


title: Love it.

text: I really like this magazine.


title: ... issues at news stands or sharing hand down's from better heeled friends with subscriptions

text: in the 50 plus years since being introduced to HOT ROD Ive been an on and off subscriber buying issues at news stands or sharing hand down's from better heeled friends with subscriptions, wasnt until recently I discovered this deal from Amazon so Im back on as a subscriber, not complaining but why do they all seem to get here 2 months early?, oh well its like it has always been all the latest trends seem to be beyond my means and the HOT ROD's these days all seem to be built for the owners rather than the owners building there own , I still read to see the latest trends, but for myself I've gravitated to the RAT Rod crowd as they still seem to have the soul of what our hobby has always been about to build it to make it yours!


title: Quilting Arts Magazine

text: A very innovative and forward looking magazine.  The articles are thorough, informative and stretch the creative juices of it readers.  There are clear instructions for many different types of creative quilting.  I would recommend this publication for the more adventurous and creative fiber arts quilter.  I have never been dissapointed in a single issue.


title: One of my fav mags!

text:
I'm very fussy when it comes to magazines and I am not often pleased, but Jan Magazine makes me happy.

I love the articles, the adds do not annoy me, and It's always jam packed full of good info.

The only thing I don't like is the price. It costs more than most magazines around here.


title: Wonderful kids� magazine

text: This is simply a fantastic magazine for kids. The content is very diverse, ranging form informative articles, jokes, reader interaction, news, amazing animal tricks, cool things kids around the world have done, movie reviews, the environment, games, etc. It is the perfect length for kids to be able to finish each issue. It has a light and friendly layout, and large, colorful pictures. This magazine gets plenty of use at our house.


title: Same old stuff . . .

text:
This is how a subscription to muscle and fitness will go: Issue 1 -- building a massive chest, Issue 2 -- the secret to huge biceps, Issue 3 - the secret to a massive chest, etc., ad nauseam. And, every other issue or so will treat some issue about weight training and bedroom performance. If this is what you are after, this magazine might be for you. But don't expect much in the way of cutting-edge science or research. Lift weights. Buy our supplements. Get bigger.
It seems like every other ad is pushing some new, state-of-the-art supplement that will give you the results of anabolic steroids without any of the adverse health effects. The before and after shots are a riot. The worst was a user that was soft and bloated on day 1; on day 3 he was well defined and cut, with a great tan to match!
Ultimately, the only way this magazine is going to help you is if looking at grotesque, chemically-enhanced physiques with sprayed-on sweat motivates you. Personally, I would be happy if I could build the muscle mass of some of the women bodybuilders featured in the magazine. (I could use the manly jaw line, too.)


title: Your standard news

text: ASTM Standardization News is the official publication of ASTM International. Each issue covers a number of standardization-related issues such as research, testing, legal and governmental events, news, how-to, upcoming publications, etc. Articles are relatively brief but informative. An extensive calendar provides information for upcoming events such as technical committee meetings, special meetings, technical and professional training courses, and symposia.


title: The absolute best for those on (or near) the cutting edge!

text:
This is a must-own magazine for anyone who (1) likes to be on the upper end of computing power, (2) frequently upgrades components, or (3) wants to keep abreast of latest computing technology.
While you WILL learn from reading this magazine, it gives enough substance without going over-the-top geeky technical. The format is exceptional - perfectly sized articles and plenty of vignettes for the most likely short-attention-span audience it writes to.
Maximum PC contains great tips, editorials, watch-outs, tutorials, and equipment reviews. Don't worry about not getting the disk. After buying a few newsstand issues with the disk, I decided that the magazine content was more valuable than the few demos or utilities you may get on the disk.
My only complaint: It is too bad that they use a rather in-your-face style with "kick-a**" reviews, frequent talk of downloading porn, and other crudeness. This does nothing to enhance the magazine, and only detracts.


title: Everything for Chili-heads!

text:
This is THE magazine for those who like it hot.
While there is plenty of coverage of the so-hot-it-will-burn-your-face-off items, the bulk of the magazine covers mouth watering cooking that will be sure to please at any level of heat. Each issue includes about 50-75 recipes, all of which are high quality, useful, and practical. A recipe index in the front of the magazine lists all the recipes by category.
Chili Pepper is printed on glossy paper and contains loads of beautiful photographs. In fact, the ads are also exceptionally beautiful and colorful, and in no way detract from the overall aesthetics of the magazine. Hot sauces, salsa, powders, kitchen gadgets, pepper plants, and a host of other things can be found in the ads.
This is a great gift for those who like to spice it up!


title: Mag. Content Okay, Disk Content Great

text: As the other reviewers have noted, the real value of this magazine is the disk. There have been many games I thought I wanted to buy, only to be severely disappointed by the demo. The money you shell out for the disk will pay for itself in games you don't buy after playing the demos. As for the magazine itself, it is useful and entertaining. You have to read through the bias though. Remember, they work for Microsoft.


title: Learning of my adopted state!

text: I received vintage copies of this magazine several years ago. The current publucation's articles and photos still depict the wild beauty of Arizona!


title: Four Stars

text: Nice variety, easy to read.  A perfect gift for my mother, who is an avid puzzle fan.


title: Where are the magazines?

text: Excellent magazine.  We are not renewing our subscription.  In the last year we only received two mags.


title: Husband loves this magazine

text: I ordered this magazine for my husband for the holidays.  It took a while to arrive but once it did, he read it cover to cover.<br />He anticipates each new issue.


title: no entertainment

text:
Few articles or substance.  Why not merge with People and call it a day?
Zero interesting articles.....very little guidance or recommendations........
Will not renew


title: Travel the world from your couch

text:
I've got 30 years of "National Geographic" on CD-Rom, new issues, and
back issues from my grandparents.

There is no more complete magazine about the world. Whether it's
anthropology, geology, geography, entomology, etymology, paleontology,
astrology, zoology, oceanography -- this magazine has touched base
there and will return. The magazine's contributing photographers
include all the best nature photographers in the world (like David
Doubilet, example ISBN: 0714838284) and award winning photographers of
many other styles.

The magazine isn't of hard science but this is to its credit. The
subjects are covered in a way that is always educational to laymen and
eminently interesting to professionals. It's the best way to know
what's going on now and has gone on in the natural world.

I cannot think of another magazine that is so consistently pleasing
and positive on so many levels; visually, intellectually, in its dept!h
of subject.  Even small children can enjoy it simply because of the
beautiful, colorful pictures.

If you've never read it (!), pick up a copy to see. If you like it as
much as half the world does, subscribe.


title: Good old-fashioned home cooking

text: I get my copies of Taste of Home as hand-me-downs.  I probably wouldn't subscribe to it myself, but I can see that it is a very good magazine if you like hearty home cooking and don't already have a broad repertoire of tried-and-true recipes to rely on.  Taste of Home presents family-friendly comfort food; most of the recipes are submitted by readers with a note about their origin.  Each issue is packed with over 80 recipes and contains no advertising.  Most dishes are made from scratch (or as close to scratch as anyone does anymore) with readily-available ingredients and easy preparation.  If you are looking for trendy or exotic food you won't find it here, but you will find a seasonal selection of roasts, stews, casseroles, soups, salads, appetizers and party food, simple but lively vegetable side dishes, and easy-to-bake desserts.  You will like Taste of Home if you like to try new recipes and have fairly traditional tastes in food, or if you want to try cooking (nearly) from scratch but don't want to slave for hours in the kitchen.  Check out the publisher's web site to see featured articles and the recipe index for the current issue.


title: Practical recipes and a fun online community too!

text: Each issue of Bon Appetit is filled with recipes that make home cooking interesting. Articles on topics related to food, wine, restaurants, and travel provide some light reading, but the emphasis is on recipes ranging from simple ideas for dishes based on store-bought ingredients to elaborate meals entirely from scratch. Most are geared toward those of us who have some cooking experience but also have a life outside the kitchen, and allow you to achieve surprisingly good results with relatively little effort. The recipes are seasonal and often trendy, but not weird; ingredients can usually be found in well-stocked supermarkets. One of the best features isn't even in the magazine - it's the way all the recipes are available for review on the Epicurious web site. If you like Amazon reader reviews, you will love Epicurious recipe reviews, which let you reap the benefit of a whole community's experience with each recipe. Subscribing to Bon Appetit gives you the best of both worlds - a magazine you can read at your leisure, wherever you like, and a community of cooks with whom to share ideas if you wish.


title: Real simplistic

text: I received a free trial subscription to REAL SIMPLE so I didn't know much about it until my issues began to arrive.  I was pleased to receive a very attractive, very substantial-feeling magazine that includes features on "life, home, body, and soul."  If only the content were as substantial as the paper!  Instead, the writing is as spare as the page design.  Compared with other magazines geared toward women, Real Simple reminds me of InStyle without the celebrities or Martha Stewart Living made, well, simple.  It's pleasant enough to flip through, and contains some good ideas, but there just isn't much to read here.

title: Happy Customer.

text: I'm giving it 5 stars because my niece asks for me to renew it every year :) Though she might be aging out soon ...


title: great for north central florida

text: This mag speaks directly to us Florida gardeners, full of great and timely info for each region. They actually understand the crazy up and down weather and how it affects the plants in my area.


title: Hate magazine

text: Time has become a political hate magazine; absolute garbage publication......stay clear of this trash and do not let political hate upset your life.


title: Renewal

text: I was not going to renew this magazine when it's expired in July 2009.  However, the renewal rate was good, so I extended for two more years.  This magazine is ok.  One thing I don't like about it is you have to skip some pages to see the continuation of an article.  It's annoying.  Other than that, this magazine does have some interesting articles from time to time.  If you like to cook, they do have some nice recipes.


title: Not renewing my subscription since Bloomberg changes.

text:
I've subscribed to this magazine for many many years and considered it a great way to get accurate information about both business and significant world events.  I've even given gift subscriptions to friends and family.

But since Bloomberg took over, I find the organization of the magazine (not even page numbers) seems almost random, many of the types of articles I liked the most are no longer published. It is really a different magazine altogether.

I stuck with it for the remainder of my subscription to see if it would improve. It  didn't.  It's very disappointing as I always looked forward to reading the magazine but I did not renew.  And I haven't found anything to replace it.

Buy this magazine at the newsstand for a month or take the short subscription and see what you think before making a longer commitment.


title: NOT SO GREAT

text: I WAS DISSAPOINTED WITH THIS MAGAZINE. WISH I'D BOUGHT IT OFF THE NEWS STAND FIRST.


title: great for beginning GCs

text: I purchased a few magazines for my husband to gain insight as a new licensed general contractor and this magazine far exceeded my expectations.


title: Three Stars

text: Just wasn't what I thought it was


title: Very helpful, and not as many ads.

text: I liked the recipes, and the reviews of the food and wine helped as well.


title: Five Stars

text: Has a lot of great information


title: Decoration Ideas 2 spark one’s imagination !

text: I enjoy seeing what HGTV is doing; the ideas, colors, and recommendations stir my imagination! One small change can provide soothing, stimulation, and/or happiness in one’s personal space


I never got the "clutch" that was supposed to come with this magazine order. This is my first time subscribing to Vogue. It has some good stuff, but most of it is advertisement. The last issue was bigger than the old yellow books from the 90s Most of it was ads. I still think there's something very fishy about being able to pay $6 for a print version that gives you access to the app version, while the in-app version alone is three times as expensive. I won't be subscribing again.

text: Cigar Afficianado is great, but ordering through Shanken means your subscription is held up for months. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE THROUGH AMAZON OR THIS PUBLISHER.

text: I love Wired magazine, and I love getting magazines digitally. Wish I could have gotten just the digital copies for this price, but I'll take what's offered. Anyone want yet another black baseball cap?


title: Have not received my Vogue!!

text: I have not received Vogue since June in hard copy or on my Kindle. I am so very disappointed. I also ordered In Style, Elle and have not been receiving any of them since June!!

title: All the reviewers are right!

text:
I've subscribed to PPI off and on for many years (including when it was Pop. Photog.).  I agree with the reviewer who said that reviewers tend to be mostly positive about reviewed products--however, they're better than they used to be and do, in fact, mention problems.  In addition some other photog. mags simply don't do bad reviews at all.  One of the rationales photog mags sometimes use is that they don't want to publicize bad products so they don't review them.  Hmmmm...

Also, it's true that many articles are superficial or rehashes of past "how-to" articles for near beginners, but they do sometimes cover other aspects of photography, and they do have profiles of photographers and their work from a variety of different fields, which I find interesting.

My biggest gripe with PPI is that they are hyperbolic about any new development or product, so there is a lot of: "We finally got our hands on the new Kamera S&M2000 which is now the top of Kamera's line.  Kamera has completely redisigned the grip which is now a different shape and has a small patch of nubbly rubber on it.  And we were surprised to discover that the button for releasing the flash is now mounted on the SIDE of the camera!"  Etc., etc.  Everything new is incredible, stunning, radical, amazing, worth a close look, etc.  Truly radical developments just don't happen once/month like clockwork in photography, but they go for headlines instead of stories in depth....

Also a pain are evaluations of color films with numerous side by side shots all limited by the magazine printing process and many of which look nearly identical...which is a tad funny, actually.

Bottom line is: read it for a year and then subscribe to something else for a while.  Helps to get more info and you can compare different approaches by mag editors that way.

text: I love the way the give one ideas for projects and not just summaries of carving shows with a lot of photos


title: coffee table magazine

text: disappointing.  I was hoping for a more hands on travel guide, but this is sort of a glitzy, slick approach that is light on tips and heavy on pictures.  It's a coffee table magazine; it looks good but don't bother.


title: co. shares many mailing lists

text: subject matter excites - but beware the inundation of junk mail  - ordered as a gift and the scads of junk mail lists gift-ee's first name with gift-er's surname - pretty presumptuous


title: My kids love this one

text: My three school aged kids 9-14 love this magazine and sometimes even fight over who gets to read it first.  So far I haven't seen anything inappropriate, which I appreciate.  I highly recommend for anyone with kids that have at least any vague interest in news and current events.


title: Very disappointed in content

text: Not being from Texas I thought there might be something interesting to learn. What I learned that it's just another left leaning rag that pushes same old agenda, and demonize any view that is not what I would call "NYC approved". Very strange stance for publication with Texas in its name. Subscribing was a mistake.


title: it's bad for you

text:
If I could give Prevention zero stars I would. My sister is a subscriber, but also a scientist. Granted, not a scientist in health, fitness or diet, but she has a background in Biology and believes in true scientific method and peer-reviewed fact-based evidence. Unlike your recent cover model, corporate shill, fear-mongerer, computer scientist and squasher of dissent, Vani Hari. To give this woman another platform to spread mis-information based on opinion is appalling. If she can't pronounce an ingredient name, it's bad for you. No proof to back it... it's just bad. If you go to her Facebook page and disagree with anything she says or ask for evidence, she will ban you and delete your comments. She's a danger to society. At a recent speaking engagement at the University of Florida, people were walking out in droves and she left before any questions could be asked. I guess it's easier to leave than open up debate when you don't have any evidence to back your claims?

For a magazine like Prevention to give her the spotlight, they are complicit in the damage she's causing. I can't believe in a magazine that would promote her ideas for the sake of gaining readership versus actually trying to help its readership gain true knowledge and awareness in healthy living. My sister will be cancelling her subscription and will be urging others to do the same. Food Babe needs to be stopped before more damage is done. Stopping her corporate sponsorship is the first step, until she can be taken to court for her bogus claims. It will happen. Just like with her co-conspirator Dr. Mercola.


title: Don't Trust The Messenger

text:
I quit my Lifetime membership and requested no more copies of this shill rag be sent to my house. This magazine promotes pseudo-science through the likes of Food Babe... a woman with a degree in computer science and no tolerance for scientifically-backed viewpoints. Yet, she has thousands... if not millions of shills abiding by her every... sometimes dangerous... word. If she can't pronounce it... it's bad for you. Great logic! Or if the companies bow down and pay her for "approval"... they suddenly become okay in her book.

Then this magazine has the audacity to proclaim those of us with the actual wherewithal to do the research... backing our opinions with peer-reviewed scientific reviews... to be industry shills... it's just insulting. I'd rather read the old Weekly World News.


title: Gun Tests is THE unbiased authority on testing firearms and accessories.

text: Like everyone who subscribes will tell you, Gun Tests is THE unbiased authority on testing firearms and firearms-related accessories. They are often called the "Consumer Reports" of the gun world. They accept absolutely no advertising, nor free samples from manufacturers. They buy the items they test from retail outlets just like you would, then they put 'em through the ringer, and honestly report what comes out the other side. You may not like what they report about your favorite gun, but you will probably respect their evaluations and test methods, and your "expert" opinion will probably be influenced for the better by what Gun Tests has to say. Their subscription price is a true bargain if you want the real facts on what works and what doesn't, instead of the slick glossy pin-up pictures and fluff reporting of most every other gun magazine.


title: Great grandkids gift!!

text: Love these!!


title: Is fun to look at

text: Is fun to look at, but can be "read" in one sitting.  Not really worth the money.  Plus they send invoices saying that you haven't paid for months, then send a "subscription suspended for non-payment letter" basically wanting you to renew...in a sneaky way.  Not good business practices.  The lady said it automatically renews you, which is even fine...but they send you a late payment and "notice" BEFORE you even renew or decide not to renew.  Also you have to look up the phone number, is NO where on the invoice.<br />Better magazines to spend your money on...plus the renewal is $24.00.  Not impressed...sorry!


title: Okay -- probably will not renew

title: Absolutely the best photography magazine!

text: I look forward to this magazine coming to my postbox! I read it from cover to cover and have them indexed in my photo library. There is so much great information every month. It is absolutely, to me, the best photo magazine out there! It has everything from technical to artistic!


title: French Watercolor

text: Outstanding Watercolor painting tips in this magazine. My favorite.


title: Five Stars

text: Good price!


title: PM

text: I have always liked this magazine and read it wherever I could find it and finally stopped ordering other magazines and ordered the renewal on this one. It is a cool magazine to read and I really like the articles on the different things that are out or coming out.

title: It's Vogue!

text: It's Vogue,  you know the deal. I rarely use the online version but I love getting the magazine.


title: $5

text: I got this in the Gold Box for $5 for a year. That is flat out unbeatable. I love the magazine- I am buying a house, and I can not wait to try some of the projects that this magazine talks about!


title: Misleading Title

text: It’s not as healthy as expected. More like an uninformed person’s idea of health. It should be titled “Eating Better Than Fast Food”


title: Still Waiting

text: Hard to review, since I have not received my first issue yet.  I have subscribed to Car & Driver for years, and love the magazine.


title: Four Stars

text: love the magazine. I don't like the auto renewal


title: Geat magazine, too long for delivery

text:
This is a great magazine.  My 5 year old son loves it, and is thrilled to be getting his own magazine subscription.  He is a beginning reader and the content of this magazine is entirely appropriate for his current learning level.

Delivery time was terrible.  I ordered this subscription mid-August and my son has been asking nearly every day when it would arrive.  We just got the first issue yesterday (11/8).  I know we should allow 6-8 weeks for delivery, but it would have been nice to at least get an acknowledgement from the publisher that they received the order and were working on getting it out to us. I wonder if it would have taken so long if I had ordered directly from the publisher...?


title: Did not receive all the magazines

text: Received few of the magazines


If farming is a hobby, why does it take up so much of my time??? This magazine has great articles for the homesteader.


title: Five Stars

text: Love my Mother!!


title: Don't purchase

text: Bad magazine. Boring irrelevant pictures. Not country. I think some design people decided to go out of control with "matchy, matchy" photos and forgot that content and substance are essential.


title: ALL YOU

text: The BEST magazine out there for the shopping consumer, with excellent coupons, crafts, fashion and recipes for everyday for the every woman!!!


title: Five Stars

text: Granddaughter loves it


title: Worth the money!

text: This is my Husbands favorite magazine! I was thrilled to find it here on Amazon for a better price~ We have scaled all the magazines back to only two; Chile Pepper, and Cuisine At Home. We really look forward to receiving them!


title: Thin read

text: I have been a subscriber for several years and this magazine gets smaller and smaller.  I live in Atlanta an several of the recent issues have had little to no value for the zone 7 gardener.


title: inspiring

text: This magazine is very helpful to me in my practice of yoga. Not being able to go to classes, I bought video tapes and books, and have been practicing for about 2 years now with my children at home. Since I began receiving YJ about 6 months ago, I have felt a renewed inspiration in my practice. There is always something new to try, so I don't feel stagnant. The only thing I think could be improved upon would be to add more pictures of men and maybe even children practicing yoga.


title: my 9 year old loves this magazine

text: OK, the advertisements are a bit much, but the magazine is great. My son has subscriptions to Cricket and Kids Discover, too. He has had many other magazine subscriptions over the years, and this one stands out to me because, unprompted, he has always found fun information that he felt was worth sharing. This magazine was also a favorite with my niece who does not like to read at all. The magazine format is easy to read, yet rich in content.


title: Haven't received any issues

text: I sent in my subscription month's ago and have not received a single issue; so I'm not sure if the magazine is any good or not but the provider is horrible. Stay away from this provider!


title: Great ideas

text: Every issue is full of beautiful pictures and great ideas. Thanks for putting out such a quality product


title: Just what I hoped it would be

text: Great articles, arrived on time, just what I was looking for in a sailboat magazine


title: Gave as a gift. This is not a real-life ...

text: Gave as a gift. This is not a real-life travel mag. Most of us cannot afford the high-end stuff in here.


title: its becoming a pamphlet

text: this magazine used to be really good with lots of info, how to's and boat reviews. it is getting thinner and thinner. i wouldn't buy it anymore if not for my husband.


title: Meh...

text:
I got this magazine when I was around 7 or so, (I'm nearly 15 now) and I now realize how cutesy and superficial this magazine is. I mean, seriously. In each issue, there's at least one party-planning thing. I have never done any of the parties. And, come on. These short stories are always the "feel-good" type.

The magazine itself is really short, too. I always get done reading it, completing all the quizzes, and finishing the puzzles, in 30 minutes or less.

All in all, I do not think this magazine is worth the $5+ you pay for with a subscription.

Thanks for letting me complain a little!!

P.S. The newsstand price is $3.95.


title: It's Great If...

text:
Vogue is one of those magazines that I'm sure I'll subscribe to for the rest of my life whether or not I'm disgusted by it. Vogue is so much more than a magazine; it's an ideal. But I digress.

Vogue has huge high points. It's fashion spreads are gorgeous. The clothers, however, are sometimes odd or ugly, and most of the time expensive. The food column is amazing, and the movie and book reviews are informative and fun.

But it sometimes reeks of bad taste, whether talking about $2,000 lingerie or whether 11 year olds should carry Chanel purses. It gives off a whole 'richer-than-thou' vibe which is vile. I always feel guilty after reading the latest issue.

It all comes down to this: if you're into fashion and expensive things in general, it's impossible to dislike Vogue. But if you're the crusading type, it's impossible not to find it excessive and crass.


title: Five Stars

text: I find it just like People Magazine but much more affordable.


title: Good deal

text: My kids love this book!


title: Five Stars

text: Good magazine.


title: One Star

text: way to boring for teenagers


title: ... to this magazine and turned out to be very disappointed. It has way to many ads in it

text: I was looking forward to this magazine and turned out to be very disappointed. It has way to many ads in it, and not enough reading material. I will not be renewing my subscription.


title: great magazine

text: If you like home decorating and renovating then you will like this magazine.  Always easy to understand and webmail references to help you.


title: Still going, still great!

text: I subscribed to TFH years ago, and I just came back (2019) again.  I have to admit, I anticipated a lower quality publication now.  I am pleasantly surprised to see that the quality of the articles and content overall has improved dramatically over the years.  This is an even more professional publication now than its original version decades ago.


title: My kids love this!

text: We currently get Magnifikid in a bulk order through our homeschool group, which saves us a bunch and is terrific because 4 of my kids are currently using them.  My 9yr old, 8yr old, 6yr old, and almost-5yr old all like it quite a lot and are learning a great deal as well.  I like that it includes not only the readings but also many of the prayers that the priest says, so it is easy for them to follow along.  They enjoy the games and stories that go along with each week's readings too.  I guess the price is a bit of a downside, although it is very much worth it even at the regular subscription price.  You won't be sorry for ordering this for your children, grandchildren, godchildren, or any special child in your life!


title: The most basic recipes ever!

text: I subscribed to this magazine after getting Rachael Ray magazine for years and it went out of print. What a mistake. The recipes by the "food network chefs" are acceptable. The "weeknight cooking" section in every issue contains the most basic-ass, unappealing recipes, which I can only assume are aimed at someone who has never set foot in a kitchen. They seem like they were created by 1950s housewives trying to use up what food they had left in the fridge. If you are looking for new, inventive, flavorful, dare I say- appetizing recipes (pork chops and beans, really??), this isn't it.


title: Love

text: Love real simple!


title: Terrific magazine

text: Such a great subscription! I love the style of the writers and the depth with which they explore hot topics!

title: Where are they

text: Haven't been receiving my subscriptions


title: I would have liked a down to earth travel mag

text: I found the mag to be too high end , I wasn't looking for a Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous . I would have liked a<br />down to earth travel mag .. Also advertizing products that very few people can afford .. Not my cup of tea .


title: Hard to read.

text: Good content. Hard to read with small print and glossy pages at bedtime.


title: Thank you for the deal.

text: Amazing book for amazing deal.


title: Mixed bag

text: Some excellent in-depth articles about interesting people and topics, but also lots of anti-white racism, anti-male sexism, and leftist political propaganda. The quality of the publication has been steadily declining, as the focus has shifted from discussing technology to promoting racism, sexism, and leftist social engineering.


title: Biased but good

text: The magazine and its sister publications show a clear bias against men. Within its pages, you will only find profiles of female scientists and articles written by women. Although the quality of the articles is high, readers are left with the impression that science and writing are just for women.


title: TV GUIDR

text:
In the know!

So nice to have the inside scoop on the shows.  I STILL love TV!  Probably more DVR'd than watched live though


title: Five Stars

text: Love this magazine. Great articles. Inspired to run more!


title: Loved it!

text: I really loved it because it was full of things that interested me. Beautiful photos, etc.


title: helpful

text: helps me with my model railroading


title: Great for ideas around the house.

text: I absolutely love this magazine. I used to have a subscription some 25 years ago and have missed the insight this magazine provides. Every issue has something to offer. I’m already a journeyman technician and know how to fix pretty much everything around the house but I’m always open to new tips and tricks.


title: $5 Popular Science Subscription

text: Took advantage of a special to get a year's subscription to Popular Science. I have enjoyed reading the magazine but probably will not renew.


title: Great for Animal Lovers

text: My daughter really loves reading these magazines. They are cute, fun and informative.  Highly recommend for age 7-9.


title: If you like Cosmo you will like Shape

text: This not the magazine I remember from a few years back.  Not a lot of fitness or health articles, but a lot of cosmetics ads.  If you like Cosmo you will like Shape.  I found it somewhat boring.


title: VF used to make me smarter. Now it just wants me to hate the police.

text: Under the new leadership VF has lost the naughty, addictive, smart stories that I read for two decades and replaced character studies with predictable, unchallenged political one-sidedness.  (This coming from the mom of a trans son, a special needs son and and the aunt of an African-American 24 year-old man.)<br />I can hear the editor now..."who's got the coolest Instagram RIGHT NOW??!!"  "Let's hate ALL white men in the NEXT issue!!" "Let's glorify and worship an unknown hip-hop artist in the NEXT!!" Where did the crime, the scandals, the business deals all go? A political agenda that's out of control and therefore becomes predictable glop lacking a cell wall to maintain its integrity. Garbage magazine now.


title: What’s with the adds!

text: This magazine used to be filled with articles and ideas. Now its 75% Ads! Not worth the money


title: Have been waiting for this.

text: Very helpful and inspiring.


title: Wonderful food magazine for hurried cooks as well as foodies

text: This is such a great magazine. I mainly buy food mags for the recipes -- and these are invariably fast, accessible and delicious! -- but their articles are thoughtful and based in reality.


title: Food network

text: Great magazine!


title: Great

text: I have always loved this magazine. Recipes are absurdly great.


title: New Consumer Reports Subscription

text: I've now gotten my second issue of Consumer Reports through my Amazon purchase - it started really quickly after placing the order, so that in itself was a nice surprise.  I'm not a magazine fan at all, but product info and ratings has become so complicated and confusing I thought I'd give it a try.  This publication covers a huge scope of products and services, so it goes from the teetch-clenching decision-making on major purchases right down to daily products off the grocery store shelf. I'm glad I've started this subscription and recommend it highly.


title: great

text: great


title: You have to read this.

text: I enjoy reading this magazine. It covers all my interests-history, archeology, science, pop culture, and anthropology. I got the introductory price of $12 a year. When it’s time to renew my subscription I will not mind paying the regular price. They have me hooked. I have gotten offers for Smithsonian before but discarded them. Now I wish I would have subscribed earlier.


title: Perfect for a curious 3-year-old

text: My daughter loved her big cousin’s “hand-me-down” issues so much and we read them so many times, it was time to get her own subscription. She was thrilled to get her first issue addressed to her! We’ve read it cover-to-cover every night since ❤


title: boring

text: Magazine is just ads. Boring.


title: Great print magazine...if you ever receive it

text:
I've subscribed to the NYRB for almost twenty years. I'm thrilled every time I see it in the mailbox: here are long essays on topics that interest me, written by intelligent authors from all over the world, a welcome counterweight to the slipshod language of the Internet.

However, something changed in the NYRB fulfillment department around 2016. I, for one, don't receive the magazines I paid for with acceptable regularity. Contact with customer service results in various responses: a late mailing of the missing issues, a promise to extend your subscription, a surly note claiming your long-established mailing address is invalid. Will buying a subscription through Amazon mean better service? Give it a try.


title: Easy to read

text: Interesting, variety of articles, not too condensed to reduce  primary meaning  and interest in article.


title: Disappointing

text: We have read this magazine for a while, but now it seems more focused on choosing colors than how to actually do the projects. It has turned into a look book instead of a how to guide. It is fine if you want to look at photos and get some inspiration, but you will not learn how to make your house look like that picture.


title: A great read!

text: This magazine is a great blend of antique history, beautiful country home interiors, adorable crafts, shopping lists and country boutique features. I love getting it in my mailbox every month.


title: Lite reading

text: Been reading Prevention Magazine off and on for several years.....sometime it' pretty good, but most of the time it's information lite.  Most articles are one page long, a few run longer.  It provides just enough information to tickle your interest, then you're left wanting more.  If you are interested in in-depth information, go to your search engine of choice,  and well, search.  You will be better informed and save money.


title: Haven't gotten it yet

text: I ordered the magazine over a month ago and have not received it yet. I know it might take a couple more weeks, but that is where I am at right now.


title: Small magazine

text: This magazine used to be much larger with more features, more jokes, more volume and not so many ads.<br />Also miss the great art work that used to grace the back of the issue where large ads reside now.  This publication is just a shadow of its former self--I know as I keep old special issues of years ago and what a difference!


title: One Star

text: My 14 year old daughter very disappointed. Lots of Sale Ads.

title: One Star

text: I received one magazine in 1 magazine only


title: too expensive

text:
nice magazine, a bit thin for the money
have no clue why there are so few childrens magazines and why the few there are,
 are soooo expensive.
If I were 20 years younger Id start my own magazine for kids.


title: As good a magazine as I remember!

text: I have such fond memories of reading Highlights magazine in my pediatrician's waiting room as a child and I'm so happy that my kids are able to enjoy it now!


title: Favorite mag

text: Haven't given up on what a magazine can and should be, intelligent and timeless.For people who never tire of learning.


title: Best Read

text: I used to read Maxim, but got tired of all the ads.  ESPN The Magazine has a lot of good content.  Great stories.


title: Not realistic

text: I decided to cancel this one, as it was my least favorite magazine to get in the mail. The design ideas are not very realistic for the typical home. Everything it recommended was over the top expensive, and it focused on homes with way out there designs. I need some REAL ideas for my home!


title: Love this Magazine

text: I am just beginning my journey into art quilts.  This magazine has been such an inspiration and reassurance that I too, can create interesting art quilts.


title: Great Compliments Coming My Way

text: The joy of sharing food, expertly prepared and enjoyed by my family and friends is my inspiration. I enjoy teaching the skills and recipes I have learned from Cook's Illustrated. (My back issues are well-worn from frequent reading). Extended research and careful presentations of Cook's Illustrated articles make this magazine stand above all others.  The equipment and ingredient reviews are great.  The illustrations are enticing and make me appreciate really good food.


title: "O" magazine

text: Seems to be a pretty good magazine. Focussed of course on women and women's issues in a way that is constructive and not condescending as are other women's magazines. I have only received one copy so far but I can say that I think it's pretty good so far. I look forward to future issues.

text: Over fifty years of reading aviation magazines I'd rate Plane & pilot at the top. It's well worth the subscription just to read Bill Cox.


title: If you cook you should

text: Love this magazine


title: Good Quick Read

text: I like Good Housekeeping magazine because it covers interesting topics and I can read it at one sitting.  I especially like the GH ratings on everyday products.


title: Couldn't Get Along Without It!!

text: For lovers of audio books, this is a must have magazine. The reviews are thorough and interesting. I have seldom found I review that has not been helpful.  f I enjoy the articles and even the ads. The magazine has a service whereby they send you, via email, upcoming reviews. I am a knitter, handspinner and weaver and audio books are my constant companion. It is important to me to have a source of reviews. There is nothing like renting or buying and audio book and not liking it. I highly recommend this magazine.


title: Perfect gift

text: This was a perfect birthday gift for my golfer husband.  He reads it cover to cover.


title: Medically informative journal

text: This journal is noted for its accurate and informative information in the field of nursing. It is very helpful in keeping up-to-date on the latest developments in medical science. Also, provides practical guidance in the practice of nursing. Frequently provides articles for which CME credits can be earned. Don't think I could ask for more.


title: Three Stars

text: Not as informative as I had hoped.


title: TERRIBLE

text: Quarterly format -- I obviously missed the notice that Bonner sent out announcing the change from monthly to quarterly.  Had I seen it I would have canceled sooner.  I don't need a coffee table book that is old and more outdated than I am.  Cycle World subscription services as well as Amazon still list the subscription as 12 issues per year.  To me that is false advertising.  While print journals are somewhat old when they hit the subscribers mail box, at least they are more up to date than this first quarterly issue.  Forget the web site -- its all pop up ads and extremely difficult to read or make it thru one article.  Yes the world changes and you should embrace change, but not when its 10 steps backward..


title: Bought as a gift

text: Nice magazine my Dad loved it.


title: Five Stars

text: I like the articles and especially not having advertising. Very informative.


title: for certain tastes only

text: I am one of the people who enjoys Crochet World magazine.  It does have patterns that are dated, as in, inspired by yesteryear.  If you like classic style and throwback doily patterns, you will like this magazine.  It's not for everyone.  Check out an issue on a newsstand and you'll be able to tell right away if this is your kind of magazine.


title: Cruising World

text: This magazine has not yet arrived, so I can not review it.  Ten years ago it was a great magazine.  I hope it is still the same.


title: Five Stars

text: The best decorating magazine out there!.


title: Can't beat that Outdoor Life

text: Love my Outside magazine. I use to buy it from the corner street vendor years ago when there were street vendors.


title: Five Stars

text: Nice magazine for the kit builder and great stories of new aircraft.


title: Been reading Popular Science for the past 50 years

text: I love this magazine. When I saw the offer to renew my subscription for only a dollar I jumped at the offer. I read PS for the past 50 years and have enjoyed a majority of the issues and the stories relating to present and future science related topics.


title: Best magazine for ..........

text: This is the best magazine I have seen for great advice for homeowners and common repairs around the home. There has never been an issue that I read that I didn't learn at least one thing. A great magazine for the new homeowner or a great house warming gift.


title: Love my Popular M........

text: I grew up reading this supurb magazine. I have only found one other handyman magazine that I also love with plenty of household tips and small projects.


title: Time to reorder

text: I love this magazine. I have purchased a few copies over the counter and I think it's time to renew my subscription.


title: Noteworthy New Food Mag

text: I thoroughly enjoyed the first issue of Foodnetwork Magazine and immediately tried three recipes, that all turned out great.  I am anxiously awaiting the next issue. After reading a few issues, perhaps I'll be able to give it five stars.


title: Five Stars

text: good buy


title: Great Father's Day or Birthday Gift for someone who has EVERYTHING

text: Excellent gift for my son-in-law. I love that it is a gift he can enjoy all year long.


title: Five Stars

text: fabulous publication - glad I can get through amazon!


title: Digital Camera Magazine - true excellence for the photo enthusiast

text:
This is a a truly high quality magazine -  lots of detailed "how-to"s, relevant current topics, great project ideas and extremely well written.  Even the kit test section is very well done-  not trying to get you to buy substandard equipment.  Also very fair in giveing equal time time to different camera types-  not an all Nikon or all Canon publication.

I highly recommend this to anyone interested in digital photography!


title: Happy Grandson:  The Week Junior gift

text: My 12 year old grandson is really enjoying my gift to him of The Week Junior. He likes keeping up with all the kinds of news from around our world.


title: Received three magazines over the course of this past year

text: When I paid for a year subscription I expected to get a magazine every month. I made the order in December and my first magazine came sometime in April or may? It was so far off from the date of order that I forgot totally about it! And then I got maybe one or two more and I haven't seen one since. Total ripoff total scam


title: Five Stars

text: My 15 year old son reads every month cover to cover. He learns a lot and enjoys the articles/stories.


title: The best bonus magazine out there.

text: On time. About my favorite subject. Great!


title: Great magazine !!!

text: Every issue has something that is well worth the annual subscription rate.<br />I've often given subscriptions of Handyman to my kids


title: HAS BECOME AN INFERIOR FASHION MAGAZINE

text: Very disappointing over the past year.  Long time subscriber and always enjoyed various articles along with the current fashion and beauty updates.  Recent issues are sparse (almost the equivalent of a pamphlet!), and contain 85% advertising.  Will NOT renew.


title: Two Stars

text: Half the pages are drug adverts.<br />Not much content. Articles are meh.


title: The perfect gift.

text: Probably the best magazine ever.  Educational, entertaining, and informative, National Geographic is a timeless present for anyone, as long as they don't already have a subscription ;)


title: Great Magazine However It Is Available With The Demo Disk

text: The demo disk can do what no printed publication can ever do. It can let you see the game in motion. This allows you to get a better idea of what the game is really like rather than strictly relying on the opinion of the publication's reviewers.<br />Overall, it is an excellent magazine but I would say that you would be missing something if you only got the magazine alone.


title: Can't bring myself to take advantage of this because it ...

text: Can't bring myself to take advantage of this because it requires auto-renewal for the price that is reasonable but they will not commit to the renewal price so why would I auto-renew without knowing how much it will be? This makes no sense so I'm not buying.


title: Unimpressed

text: Not what I was expecting.  Seems like a compilation of varied "things" I was expecting something different.  Seems like a US Govt cartoon safety manual.


title: One Star

text: Paid for a year and only received 2 magazines in 6 months!


title: HGTV

text: great magazine. lots of great decorating ideas.


title: Five Stars

text: great magazine


title: Great magazine!

text: I just love this magazine. One, it is organic so they don't tell you to dump weed killer on everything. They have product reviews and down to earth information on how to make your yard exciting and fun without poisons. My dogs are always eating the fresh grass, so the last thing I need to do is dump some crap on it and make them sick. Fun read!


title: Gourmet Subscription

text: Amazon is the only place I found that offers a two-year subscription to Gourmet magazaine.  Gourment, and other sites, only offer a one-year subscription.  I did not give it 5 stars because it is a gift for someone and I would have liked the option to send them a postcard, or even an email, telling them their subscription is on the way.  If Amazon offered that service, it would far surpass anyone.


title: People Subscription

text: I bought a subscription for my daughter as a Christmas present.  The first issue was delivered when promised and she was delighted.


title: LOVE

text: Love this publication!


title: A Must-have Magazine for Lovers of the Printed Word

text: The magazine is packed with informative tips, fine articles on many subjects including excellent interviews with outstanding writers, and pages and pages of information on submitting your work, contests, etc. MFA offerings are also covered. The carefully-edited writing is way above average and at no time is there a "talking down" to the novice writer or poet. I couldn't be without it.


title: Disappointment

text: I had a two year subscription and didn't receive about half of them.  Since it's not a monthly publication I never knew when to expect it but then I'd see a new issue at stores and would never receive my own copy.  There really wasn't much of substance to the magazine so I guess I wasn't really that disappointed to not get much copy of advertisements.  I wouldn't recommend.


Use to love this magazine but not any longer. Their customer service is HORRIBLE! When I have to speak to 3 different people and get 3 different answers on a mistake THEY made, and still don't get an answer, it's time to say good-bye.


title: enjoy my coffee

text: Every time I receive this magazine, I set aside time to sit quietly, enjoy my coffee, read, and dream!  As a matter of fact, I usually savor it on the weekends so that I can re-read it many times over and not feel guilty about doing other things! :-)


title: Do not order this magazine

text: I had to cancel...only received 1 magazine. I will never order another one again.


title: MakeUp Recommendations Make it Worth It

text: I love this magazine for one thing. They Best of lists are everything!!  The make up skin care and hair care finds here are fabulous.


title: as advertised

text: great price


title: I love this magazine

text: I love this magazine. It’s very informative and has many great articles. It also has links to all of the neat products available through various distributors.


title: LOVE THIS MAGAZINE

text: You'll never know what you'll find in this GREAT magazine, all kinds of stuff, LOVE IT.


title: An American Tragedy

text:
After enjoying the publication for decades,  I'm actually in awe.
This was not just a magazine,  but a repository for the dedicated effort of thousands of unbiased (as much as possible in American history) journalists, scientists and experts.
Over the past few years I've been at times annoyed at the bias and corruption of the publication politically. In a few cases outraged.
There are too many examples to address in this venue.
However, since the editoral staff elected to "run into the political theater" of American Politics - I seriously recommend a boycott until the situation is rectified.


title: Happy Grandson.

text: Bought this for my Grandson and had to renew because he loves it.


title: Good stuff

text: So much worth reading. Its a slim magazine, but not for lack of content. Finally, a magazine worth reading, that doesn't have you wading through advertisements. Engaging articles, recipes that aren't dumbed-down to 15-minute meals and 4 ingredients, copious pictures. This is the National Geographic of food-based magazines. Good stuff


title: Interesting articles

text: The articles are very good and it's always interesting to know how different shows are doing in the ratings. The magazine helps me to keep up with current series news as well as series in the past and their actors. I look forward to every issue.


title: Never again

text: I have had trouble getting this magazine for the past 3 months.  I talked to a customer service rep. and was told I could not get back issues, they don't have any.  I wonder why I bought the magazine if I can't even get delivery of it.  Hearst Magazines is unreliable and the person that I spoke to was rude.  When it comes up for renewal I will remember not to buy from Hearst magazine


title: The Name Says It All

text: Love this publication


title: Good tips

text: This is not a magazine I would normally subscribe to, but it was free with purchase so why not.  There's some good articles and tips in it.


title: No magazine came

text: Ordered for 10 issue , purchased for my grandson for Xmas, have only received one issue that was in Dec.


title: Since I am from New England

text: I thought it would be loyal to support this magazine. For some reason, I just did not find it that compelling. It's traditional and something about the visual layout makes it hard to read. I think I am still too young to appreciate it.


title: I particularly like the fiction

text: I particularly like the fiction. Miss that in magazines of today, always standard years ago. Dislike all the coverage of entertainment personalities. I outgrew movie magazines years ago.


title: Great magazine for Minnesota tourists.

text: Enjoy the articles.


title: Indeed essential and very compelling

text: Having been a reader since the original Commodities Magazine (1972) and continuing through the lengthy FUTURES magazine phase, I was always happy with the industry insights and occasional digression into other topics. But since AlphaPages transformed it into a world class Alt Investment periodical in 2015 it has improved beyond anything a simple industry rag focused only on markets and trading techniques might achieve.<br />The monthly features are exceptionally well-thought and well-written on such a broad range of topics, and the additional monthly departments have expanded beyond anything a simple derivatives industry magazine  can offer. It is indeed an essential guide for those either in the markets who desire broader scope, or those who view the markets from outside who would like more compelling insights. Kudos to the AlphaPages team on the impressive evolution of this venerable industry standard.


title: Exceeded My Expectations

text:
National Geographic didn't meet my expectations - it exceeded them! I wasn't sure how the pictures would look on my Amazon Fire 8.9, but they are absolutely fantastic. The magazine has a very nice mobile layout as well.

Would recommend to anyone who loves to learn and view incredible pictures as well.


title: Great gift

text: This is a gift for my mom, and she loves it!


title: Great Magazine

text: I love Real Simple Magazine and have always found it useful. The recipes are excellent and organizing suggestions are helpful and easy to implement. One of my favorite features is the "Aha" section giving alternate uses for everyday items. I was pleased to be able to get a year's subscription at a substantial discount as I find the price of a regular subscription too high for my budget.


title: Double Dipping

text: It's not the magazine I have a problem with; it's always been a great resource. But when I subscribed I thought I'd also have access to their Internet site and when I realized I didn't, I subscribed to the Internet site in lieu of the magazine. In less than an hour after paying for the magazine subscription I tried to cancel but Consumer Reports would not accept the cancellation. So now I'm into Consumer Reports for almost $60 for the year!! I cancelled another magazine subscription with no problem when I realized I would only get 4 issues a year.


title: A great magazine..

text: I am a fifth generation Texan and enjoy all things pertaining to the great state of Texas and its people.


title: Good Housekeeping Magazine

text:
A great magazine--have been a subscriber for many years--
One change would be more fictional stories--more for info
for senior adults...


title: Take me to Kentucky

text: Kentucky should be high on everyone’s list as a travel destination.  Perusing this magazine will give you ideas for a number of great travel ideas. Include the great southern food recipes and  bits of historical information and you have a great buy


title: They lied

text: Championed themselves as a non bias publication. I am an independent. They were left wing all the way. Looked like Gore and Harris edited it.


title: fair reporting

text: tells it like it is


title: covers it all

text: dislike the smaller print<br />like the articles covering the world


title: ITS THE BEST

text: Best food magazine on the market!!


title: Great

text: Great magazine! Worth subscribing and get to know various techniques


title: Ree has done it again :-)

text: Great magazine. Not too much advertising filler. Good recipes, and interesting articles. A win-win!


title: Small print

text: Would prefer large print


title: Five Stars

text: Very good recipes that are not intimidating to try.


title: Excellent

text: Excellent


title: My son has been getting these magazines for 2 years ...

text: My son has been getting these magazines for 2 years now.  He loves the stories.  He enjoys that some characters come back in edition after edition, but that there are also new stories as well! He definitely loves the hidden pictures! I will be continuing to purchase the Highlights magazines for him as he ages!


title: great mag

text: this is a great maghazine .look forward to it.as of 6 months the company (hearst) hasnt haunted me with other magazines that i have to send back and can cancel or solicited me any other way which is a very good thing and one of my biggest fears.


title: Waiting for new subscription to start

text: I believe that my subscription was renewed but haven't received any more please help my grandson loves these.


title: Great for 2nd Graders

text: I love using these in my classroom.


title: Delicious!!!

text: My husband and I look forward to each magazine arrival . The recipes and articles are wonderful!  We read cover to cover and try many of the recipes!


title: Elle is great for Fashion

text: I am glad I tried Elle magazine.  It is quickly becoming one of my favorite fashion magazines.  The September edition was the best of all of the magazines I viewed this Year.


title: Review

text: I was hoping for better information how to build DIY projects  it seems to be selling products more


title: Better than others

text:
This women's magazine definitely has a lot more to offer than other women's mags.  It is well rounded with fashion, beauty tips, as well as pertinent stories about women (not only celebrities) as well as recommendations for music, books, movies etc.  It's definitely not the same content every month, which is the most important thing for me.

Oh, and with the offer from Amazon, I got a whole year subscribtion for only $3!  Nothing beats that!


title: the best

text: Comes on time and in good shape and price is right


title: very good

text: I have loved this magazine for years. The magazine is easy to read and understand. It has subjects that are help full in every day life.


title: Awful

text: This subscription was a total waste.  I am a Chile Head, but this 20 page, six month a yr mag stunk!  There's no discretion between good hot and just nasty recipes with hot ingredients. Mostly ads anyways, and the ads contain their own recipe and the actual recipes use ad ingredients.  Besides that, just look at what they call for...you don't need to make to know it's going to be nasty!  And, authentic...not unless cenral americans use ground beef in their dishes


title: Great subscription service

text: Love the magazine particularly the recipes and garden tips. The subscription started earlier than predicted, awesome, and comes about a week and a half before the beginning of the month which is great. The process was easy and is working great. And as it was a Christmas present with auto-renew I’ve already got some of my Christmas shopping done.


title: Gift for old eyes...

text: I happened to see this at my dentist office and as a result purchased two subscriptions for gifts for my Mother and an older friend of mine who had recent eye surgery. Great for old eyes!


title: Cheap mostly ads. Not much help.

text: Flimsy mag filled with a few how tos but mostly ads.


title: Okay but not great, will not renew.

text: Lots of high end equipment.  Was hoping for product reviews and good information a regular person with regular budget could use.


title: very helpful pictures

text: I really enjoy this magazine.  Many high quality photos of different color schemes and traditional decor.  I definitely got ideas from this that are accessible.


title: Five Stars

text: Good price.


title: Was a gift they liked

text: Bought this for my sister as a gift and she loves it


title: What a deal

text:
Love the magazine.

Lots of good, common sense information.


title: Three Stars

text: First issue had many interesting ideas. I wasn't as impressed with the second issue.


title: Good Magazine If You Receive It!

text: I love the articles with lots of how to pictures, however I've only received 3 magazines in a 1 year subscription.  Are they not sending the magazine or is someone from the post office snatching it?


title: OK Magazine.  Amazon has best price.

text:
I love HGTV so I had to get the magazine and even decided to renew.  The HGTV, prior customer price was $6 more than this Amazon price.  Way to go Amazon!

For the magazine, I enjoy flipping through it.  Very colorful but it leaves a bit to be desired.  Would like some recaps on some of the HGTV shows or something with more substance.  But overall, I still enjoy the pictures of rooms I'll never have (and honestly, wouldn't really want).  :)


title: National Geographic magazine

text:
The price on Amazon is amazing ... I just had National Geographic call and try to bargain us down to $34 ... we love the magazine, but why continue to pay this NG price by going directly to the magazine ~ which we have been doing for over 10+ years.

title: Even better than I'd hoped

text: Even better than I'd hoped. A quality product with very interesting articles. As a student of the French language, I purchased it as a learning tool. The side by side translation is wonderful. I love this magazine and have recommended it to others.


title: Five Stars

text: I have a nine-year-old son that enjoys reading this.


title: Nice magazine, no digital access

text: Nice magazine, but I thought the subscription would also get me access to the website.  Now wish I had just bought the digital access...


title: Inspirational

text: Always an inspiring read! Beautiful photos.


title: Large Print

text: Love the large. print. Makes it so much easier to read.

title: Support from the United States of  America for the people of France! May God Bless you!

text: Looking forward to reading this magazine!


title: Terrible Service from publishing house

text: Love this magazine but would rather go to the store and purchase. I am so far missing 3 issues and have written 6 e-mails with no satisfaction to the publisher of Cross Stitch Collection. I finally decided to call Amazon and they are giving me a credit for the missing issues. The one issue that I really wanted I was told was sold out and they sent another magazine which I threw out. Had nothing of interest for me. I was told that my subscription ran from April 2010 to April 2011 from Amazon. The magazine publisher said my subscription ran out in February. I was supposed receive 12 issues. Never again would I order from them. They are not a reliable company to buy from.<br />The reason I purchased this magazine was that I love the Joan Elliott cross stitch designs. I found out that these designs come out 6 mouths later then the magazine. I would rather wait now and get the original pattern.


title: Twist=Disney Channel and a couple other stars

text: In a nutshell--Twist magazine has the same stars/celebrities on its cover every month. Every issue will include at least 10-15 Disney Channel stars, a couple Nickelodeon stars as well and the popular bands/solo artist for young kids (One Direction, Justin Bieber). Sometimes even the covers will look the same.


title: Five Stars

text: My granddaughter loves it.


title: Subscription  is to expensive!!

text: The subscription  is getting to me expensive,  tried  to excel my subscription,  but did not do it in time. I will not renew again!!


title: Very elegant and informative

text: I live in Florida and this magazine is so informative about the latest styles, design fashion that fits with Florida atmosphere. I love the quality of the paper and the photos are so is the illustration. I keep renewing my subscription.


title: La bomba is missing!

text:
Although my first review was complimentary, I have to amend it because we now have had to deal with TWO missing issues in less than 3 months. It does not bode well for the future. It's a weekly crossword puzzle!!!! If you miss one then it messes with your other ones. My mom is not happy and she noted that several years ago she was given a subscription as a gift and it always arrived, packaged far better. I blame Amazon and their subscription company. This is not the first problem I've had with Amazon's sub contractors, so to speak. Will I ever learn?! Below is my original review.

My mother is simply addicted to these weekly crossword puzzles in Italian and this could not be a better gift. And she loves the humorous cartoons easily as much. Una cosa che non ha paragone!

title: Great price good magazine

text: Mother earth has been a good magazine for people that lean on the natural side for years I enjoy every issue and a good price!


title: It is a great magazine and worth the money for a true 2nd ...

text: I ordered this magazine on a whim at Christmas time.  I have a 4-year old grandson who's been reading since he was two and a half and is reading at a second grade level now.  The magazine  is well written and full of interesting facts, but it's layout is a little too busy for him.  The only reason that I didn't give it five stars is because it is not quite what we needed and that may have been my mistake as I don't remember seeing a reading level when I ordered.  It is a great magazine and worth the money for a true 2nd to 5th grader, but not necessarily for a younger child who is reading at that level. Just for the record.....the information in it fascinated this grammy.


title: Five Stars

text: My dad absolutely loves this magazine!


title: Interesting Articles and Recipes

text:
My sister-in-law and I are artists and big DIY-ers. We both subscribe to ReadyMade and we love it!

I haven't done too many of the exact projects that are in the magazine, but it gives me ideas for other projects. We are both pretty poor and in our late 20s so it's nice to see some ideas for how to make the stuff in our houses look like it came out of the pages of an IKEA catalog rather than just from the Goodwill.

Some of the other reviewers complained about some of the projects being totally obvious or stupid, but I guess it doesn't bother me if there's something really simple. (I might have time for it.) And even if it's obvious to me, it probably isn't obvious to everyone.

I heard complaints about the recipes taking up a lot of the magazine, and it's true. There are a lot of interesting recipes, and I like that. The current issues has some tasty-sounding soup recipes that I'm looking forward to trying.

Each issue has an article about an hip artist or designer and how they got their Freaking Awesome Job. I think those are interesting. I like seeing the various kinds of career paths that people have taken to become successful in their fields. (Hopefully I'm on one of these tracks!)

I also LOVE the hipster lifestyle articles that some other reviewers were dissing. I like seeing other people's cool houses, studios, and creative office and retail spaces. The photography for these is usually pretty awesome.

Overall, I love this magazine.

text: Loads of info - great little mag that has tons of great tips and ideas!  Always fun and entertaining - my wife and I both enjoy it!


title: Cancelled

text: Not very interesting. Seems to expensive for not much info.


title: Great magazine for whatever grade you teach

text: I started ordering this magazine when I was teaching at a private school.  There is not one issue that I don't get at least one great lesson out of.  I love the creativity of the students and teachers and feel it is a necessity to keep your art class up to date and the students engaged!


title: A Texan refugee in Florida

text: I look forward to my Texas Monthly as it keeps me connected and reminded of my home state while I'm currently not in Texas.


title: Loving this magazine

text: Just like the version but better. Lots of  recipes and I don't have to wait for downloads or peoples comments. It's pure cooking .


title: Our favorite baby magazine

text:
My one year old has 4 (!) magazine subscriptions and Hello in my opinion is the best one.  The magazine itself is more in line with an "Indestructible" book, so they are great to travel with, wipe clean, don't tear etc.

Content wise each issue has a couple of stories/poems, a seek and find and a mix of illustrations and real life photographs.  Each issue arrives in its own envelope and has a Spotify playlist which I think is a nice touch.

Yes, they are about 10 pages,  but it's geared toward birth-2 years old.  Page wise it's very in line with other subscriptions for this age group, if you're looking for more than 10 pages, maybe just buy books each month instead.


title: Shouldn't a cooking magazine be about recipes?

text: I buy a cooking magazine for recipes.  Not for travel, not for beauty tips, not for kitchen makeovers.  Allrecipes (which should be renamed Some Recipes) is quickly heading into the territory of the classic "women's magazine" with a little bit of everything and nothing in particular.  And I don't even want to think about the number of ads.  At least it was cheap and will serve well as bathroom reading.


title: Five Stars

text: Couldn't beat this deal. One of the only 2 motorcycle mags I'll read.


title: Great subscription price

text: Great subscription price at $19 for one year (12 issues). Glad I subscribed through Amazon.


title: print tv guide

text: I love my printed tv guide.  It advises me a new programs and movies that are up and coming.  Also gives thumbs up or down on certain programs in progress.  Love that.


title: Great stories

text: Human interest stories, cute jokes and love the brain puzzles.


title: Must have!

text: If you are a new parent u must get this awesome magazine. Very happy!


title: Do it

text: Love it. Been getting it for decades


Learn about pilot training


title: If you are a homeowner it is a must have.

text: Great product! So many ideas for our many house projects. Now if we could only get those people to come to our house and help us with our projects (given that we have two little kids and hardly any time on our hands).


title: for train lovers

text: Boys love it if they love trains, great publication.

text: Great magazine!! Amazing recipes for the healthy conscious.


title: Yummy for whole family

text: I gave this as a gift. My friend loves it, she can't wait to get it in the mail. Not only can she not have gluten, but she is a diabetic as well. They have recipes that are easy to fix and something the whole family can enjoy.


title: LOVE IT! Biggest thing I noticed is how personal ...

text: Picked up this, my first copy at the grocery store.  LOVE IT!  Biggest thing I noticed is how personal it is.  Joanna comments on quite a few pages.  Her introduction to this edition was so friendly and reached out to me as if I were sitting across from her.

title: Shows a more gentle way of life

text: Yes, a magazine that shows a refined, more gentle way of life. Beautiful photos.


title: Used to be a good magazine

text: I've subscribed since the late 80's.  The magazine used to be about getting outside and seeing the world.  It seems the past few years it's devolved into promoting two things, promoting very expensive gear and fashion clothing, and promoting "personalities" versus the outdoors.  Where there used to be good articles now there are articles about people being mean to famous athletes on Twitter.  Some writers have very foul mouths which is sad since I can't leave Outside Magazine around the house because I have young daughters.  So after 30 years I had to cancel my subscription.  It was a sad to end it, but I couldn't keep waiting for them to turn the ship around.


title: Dry Dry

text: It is too wordy. I have some bee knowledge but it is technical, wordy and dry.


title: True review

text: Best magazine.....EVER


title: great magazine

text: my friend is really enjoying this magazine! Thank you


title: Awesome Value!

text: While we had to wait quite a while for the magazines to start coming in the mail, it is great finding them in the mail box before they show up in the store at a fraction of the cost!  I will be renewing this subscription for years to come!


title: A fun magazine with lots of Cross Stitching inspirations

text:
I purchased Cross Stitch Crazy at Barnes & Noble.  I loved the magazine but was a bit daunted at the single edition price.  When I saw Amazon had the magazine at approximately 40% off -for a year's subscription, I got myself a nice Christmas present.

I don't cross stitch in the traditional way, I cross stitch patterns on the squares of the Tunisian afghan stitch (Crochet) making afghans and scarves with pockets that have pictures.  I'm always looking for different patterns and I've found this magazine to be full of inspiration.  Lots and lots of different kinds of charts in each edition.  The editions closer to Easter and Spring are more youthful and the fall ones seem to be more adult.

The magazine comes with a monthly gift -usually a cross stitch chart with hoops, thread and in a nice package.  I send these to my nieces to teach their young kids the art of cross stitching.  Who knows, one day they may wish to make a very cool scarf with pockets.


title: Scan

text: I used love this magazine so I order for print at end of August. But came to just one November issue only. I forgot about order. This is kind scan? Cheap doesn’t care for money but waste my time.... for set up cancel.


title: eating well review

text: I like all the wonderful recipes and intro to new products.It is an excellant magazine and wonderfully informative.Thank you for a great magazine.


title: Great magaxine

text: Not due until January.


title: Two Stars

text: lots of advertisements


title: Nothing useful

text: Pretty pictures, but nothing that was useful or helpful to me.


title: The most innovative thing to hit women's fashion magazines

text: Brilliant all around, especially the little tabs for marking stuff that you may want to buy!  The companion website is also updated properly.  As noted earlier no hype...and best of all, most of the clothes featured are for real people and available at real prices.  No $7,000 haute tissue holders here!  Absolutely a must also for makeup/bodycare product junkies.  Just order it, you will NOT regret it for a second.


title: Absolutely worth the money

text: My German mother LOVES getting this every two weeks.  It has become a staple birthday gift.  She ends up sharing it with friends, and she enjoys keeping up with issues/trends/news from Germany.  Next time we might get the Brigitte Woman, but this has been such a hit that I doubt it.


title: Excellent Magazine

text: I have been reading Western Horseman since the mid 60's. I still think it is one of the best horse related magazines on the market. It has something for everyone from showing to training and anything in between. Just about any age group can enjoy this magazine. I started reading it when I was 10 years old.


title: i'd like to live here someday

text: jumped at the chance to read a magazine about the entertainment capital where i'd like to live and work in tv,movies or music because i love the entertainment business


title: Three Stars

text: got it for a year for 5 bucks, if it was 6 bucks....probably not


title: FANTASTIC

text: Great articles!!!


title: No more newspapers

text:
This is simply the best news magazine on the market.  Unless you are a trader who needs to get the news instantly, the economist is a much better source for all your weekly news.  Articles are well-considered, well-written and often thought provoking.  I always agree strongly, or disagree vehemently, but am never bored.  All the news you need is here, in context, and after a few days has passed to know whether or not it was as important as it seemed.

Although written in English (rather than American) it is readily understood by people the world over.  As a foreign written publication it takes a more neutral opinion of American politics than any news source in the US, and is therefore as likely to irritate liberals as conservatives.


title: Four Stars

text: Real Great


title: Gorgeous almost ad-free pages with fresh ideas

text: I think what I like most about Country Woman Magazine are the vibrant, colorful photographs. I love the stories about the 'cover woman' telling about their life and successes. The craft ideas have gotten so much better recently! Their craft section had some outdated projects, but recently, in the last couple of years, I've seen fresh ideas that are more in tune with today. Glad to see the magazine moving forward instead of staying stuck in the past. :)


title: Five Stars

text: It is a beautiful magazine


title: subscription terrible

text: I have been a subscriber for three years and every year after renewal I have to call and try to get my subscription restarted.  This year they have informed me there are no more issues left for Oct/Nov/Dec and I was to go looking in retail store for if I wanted it.  Not at all the way to treat a customer.


title: Model airplane news a good resource

text: A lot of good ideas and information


title: Four Stars

text: Good global news,covering politics and business and technology.Some unique stories


title: love it

text: recently moved to AZ and this is a great resource for finding out about history & out of the way things to do. I keep them to reference for trip planning.


title: Too much fluff

text: Just don't like it too much fluff and too many far left articles


title: Great magazine

text: Great articles and tutorials.


title: good recipes.

text: Cleaning eating, good recipes.


title: Good magazine for hunters

text: I've purchased this magazine for my grandson for several years.  He enjoys reading it and looks forward to receiving it each month.


I've renewed for years thru Amazon.  Previously renewals included the digital version, now it doesn't.  InStyle is blaming the vendor (who they say is Synapse Group, not Amazon).  Also, when you renew thru Amazon there is no option to provide your current account number (only address) so in my case it didn't find the prior subscription (and instead started a second one, which means I got two issues a month for several months).  Huge hassle to straighten out, which can all be prevented by allowing current subscribers to provide their account number (seems to be a better way to match up subscriptions instead of by mailing address anyway).  Not real happy to lose the digital (which is how I prefer to read the magazine) every subscription should be required to state whether the digital is included or not and provide a way to add it if it isn't included.  For years these magazines have included the digital and now they all seem to be trying to nickel and dime subscribers to keep it.


title: Still Waiting

text: I really would like to review this item but I still haven't received it!


title: nice reading

text: Lot of adds,but its like tools to help you in every home project


title: Good mag

text: One of the better motor cycle mags


title: A good mag for product reviews

text: The writers are very talented and easy to read, but the best part is that they are subject to no advertiser influence.  They call the shots as they see 'em.  I look forward to getting this mag each month.
