After 15 years it's still relevant to me Advantages: Good for homemaker types Disadvantages: none I used to read Good Housekeeping magazine 15 years ago. I used to look forward to it coming out every month, and there was usually something of interest and value to me in it. I valued the fact that many aspects of it were relevant to my life - being down to earth and often practical - recipes, live issues, etc. It had reviews of the sorts of things I might want to buy, and the sort of recipes I might want to cook. Then for various reasons I hardly ... ...I recently took out a subscription to it (tempted by their offer of a set of three baking trays because my supply had run low). And what is my impression now? Well, my view is the same as before. But I get the distinct impression that the magazine has kept its readership during the 15 years that I have been away. I think it has changed to include older women. It now has features older women - right up to their 70s. I don't think it used to do this. ... kittenkong 05.11.2005 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Good Housekeeping	Frequency of Publication

best home improvement magazine on market Advantages: cheap and helpful Disadvantages: uses expensive model furniture etc ...on real homes. Your Home gives you helpful information on how to tackle diy jobs such as laying underfloor heating, putting up a shed and also more simple tasks like re-vamping a photo frame. This is a magazine aimed at women who want to do more than just pick a colour scheme or take up a curtain. Every month there are real make-over sections where people have written in with their own home-makeover (inc tips on how to do it yourself), jobs to do ... ...helpful ideas for brightening up your home. My only disappointment with YourHome is that i think when showing furniture/accesories they recommend they should keep in line with the whole concept of the magazine - cheap and cheerful. A lot of the furniture/accesories shown are out of my price range and i feel this may reflect a lot of readers opinions. However, do not let this put you off as this is still a top magazine. ... bevhmariner 07.06.2004 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Your Home	Frequency of Publication

Period Living Magazine Advantages: Packed full of lovely things Disadvantages: No disadvantages Being new to this magazine, I was drawn to it by the idyllic summer scene on the cover, not forgetting the use of such persuasive vocabulary as 'dream'.'nostalgia','hideaway','fresh' and..'budget'! The 'Celebrate Summer' section was most welcome as I gazed out at the dull Devon skies. 'The Restoration Man'... a story of a couple's renovation of their 16th century, North Devon home...was a joy to read...'the scars of a house are important'..this struck ... ...love the article about 'Benches,Seats and Settles. I surely need some comfort if I'm going to be a regular reader of this magazine! After getting lost in a few more 'delicious' homes, I then spent more of my summertime in a gorgeous Kent cottage garden! The colour burst forth from the pages and the scent was not far behind. I hope that the next isssue can live up to this one! ... salgull 05.08.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Period Living & Traditional Homes	Frequency of Publication
