Advantages: easily accessible

Disadvantages: too 'average' family orientated

I have bought every copy of Good Homes since it's first copy. I have found it to be one of the most easily accessible magazines on the subject matter as it's unfussy with it's style and language, is cheap and cheerful, and aims itself at the average family, rather than just smart London couples that some of the others do. I also like nosing at other people's houses as I feel they give the best inspiration.

The 'make' features are often easy for anyone to do, using high street bought items. To me it seems to help break the mystery that some people may find surrounds interior design, making it easier for 'Joe Average' to make his home work for him. People are often frightened of trying out new techniques, etc, when it comes to their home because of people having to see it and them having to live with it for a while. This magazine (and the television shows it features) has made it easier for people to 'have a go' and shows that different things do work.

So spend £2.20 and you'll probably be throwing out your magnolia too!!
