Summary: Good gift for DIYer
Comment: Bought this subscription as a gift for my fiance the year we bought our house. He has intermediate DIY skills and is always excited to receive Family Handyman in the mail. It's better than many home improvement magazines because it offers realistic projects and solutions--no million dollar homes or renovations that cost a yearly salary. He particularly likes that they show common problems and minor household fixes (like how to clean the dryer vents or how to protect your home against cold weather) as well as large projects.

Summary: Cover-to-Cover Read
Comment: My husband has been getting this magazine for over 5 years. I still grab it from the mailbox and read it cover-to-cover. He then does the same thing. We never toss an issue. Many Ah-ha or "that's a good idea" articles. Very creative submitters. Has articles on building/remodeling, organization, repair, even car repair. I have given Family Handyman as gift subscriptions to all my family.

Summary: Good, but after three issues...
Comment: The magazine was ... good/ok. After the third issue, I started to regret subscribing to it. Too thin, not enough juicy content that made it useful. Why would I want to check out their web site on how to do some stuff when I subscribed to the magazine? After seeing the pictures of what I wanted to build, the bottom verbage was "Check out our web site on how to do this..." Junk. Sorry...

Summary: Great product for both new and existing homeowners
Comment: I have been getting this magazine from my local Lowes for the past 5 years, and I have never been disappointed with a single issue. From simple to more complex, their how-to sections are enough to make this magazine a must. However, they add that much more with new product reviews, smart user-submitted hints, and expert advice to keep ones interest over and over. I highly recommend this magazine, and think all homeowners should add it to their arsenal for fixing and beautifying their home!

Summary: Great in the Beginning
Comment: I have been a subscriber for a little over 3 years and next time it is up I will pass on the renewal.

In the beginning I anticipated the arrival of each magazine and once I received it I read through it in a day. Like most reviewers, I found about 2-3 tips from each magazine. Also like some reviewers stated, it seems the magazine has way to many adds.

I must admit my skill set has increased immensely during the past 3 years due to my job and maybe I have out grown the magazine's beginner level approach and now look for more in depth writing.

My 3-star rating is not a slam but more of a way for me to describe the magazine now as average, where in the beginning it was a solid 4, but never a 5.

It probably is one of the better all around magazines out there for its class, but some of the easy level how to stuff, and massive amounts of adds leave only a few pages an issue that garner my attention, which only amount to about 15 minutes total of reading that issue and off to someone else I pass it along. I can not remember the last issue that I opened it up again after the first reading.

If you are interested in fixing your own stuff and are not so tool savvy this magazine is for you. If you know your way around the shop, then it will merely be a refresher course every issue with most projects not particularly engaging looking.

Between the numerous adds, the "model" looking laborers, and the "set style" projects it reads almost like you are viewing a glazed over Hollywood like production with commercials every 2 minutes.

Its worth reading if your other better magazines are not there yet.
