Comment: First, wanted to comment on the fact that i didn't know amazon.com had magazines. it was a nice surprise and i will use them again. Secondly, Better homes and Garden consistently has great issues with information that everyone can use. I love the recipes and the creative ideas.

Summary: Plenty of ideas for a low price.
Comment: I always get a good deal on subscriptions to BH & G. Although there is a lot of advertising, I find it comparable to other magazines in that way. There are tons of ideas in here and it's a great magazine to peruse before redecorating a room or even a house.

I always love looking at different people's homes and gardens. The gardens are absolutely beautiful and although I can't use too many of their ideas (I'm in zone 10), I can get ideas on garden structures and design.

Lots of great recipes and ideas on entertaining as well.

Summary: Nice pictures and lots of ideas
Comment: I like this magazine but like others have mentioned it has a lot of ads. I enjoy most of the ads though, they give me ideas sometimes. Mostly it's a picture book, I don't really read many of the articles.

Summary: Even the Articles Look Like Ads
Comment: If you like advertisements, this is the magazine for you. The few articles that appear in the magazine consist of large photographs and very little text. So, if you should see a photo of a well-planned garden and want to learn more about it, there isn't enough information in the accompanying text. The text reads more like a caption for the photo. These articles are short, perhaps 4 or 5 pages. Even so, they are interrupted by pages of ads. And to make matters worse, the articles as laid out on the page look much like the ads. I paid about $10 for a one-year subscription. Not worth it. I felt like I was giving them money to recycle their paper for them.

Summary: I look forward to...
Comment: receiving my new issue of BHG every month. I got a gift suscription from my grandmother for Christmas. In 2007 I got married and we also purchased our first home. I like that this magazine has a mix of decorating ideas, recipes, gardening, and fashion. It is not all one or the other, so it is kind of like getting four magazines in one. I loved the new year issue that was all about getting organized, I keep it around to reference often and will likely renew my subscription after gift period is up.
