1.0 out of 5 stars Notice there are NO GOOD reviews after new editor, Jacqueline deMontravel took over 2+ years ago., July 29, 2008

This review is from: Romantic Homes (Magazine)

This magazine has gone from a unique, wonderful and one-of-a-kind magazine to a forgettable, can't-decide-on-a-style, vehicle for the over-blown ego of deMontravel, its self-involved-gotta-have-my-hand-in-every-article editor. I had saved every single issue of this magazine from the late 90's until it's demise under her "leadership".

What used to stand out was the uniquely identifiable shabby chic style. Lots of pink and roses may not appeal to many, but to those who love the look, we had found our "niche" publication. Now it is merely a mash-up of all the other decorating, craft and recipe magazines. There are already plenty of those type of magazines out there for those who want them. For die-hard Romantic Homes Magazine fans, the "how to make a valentine" and "new ways to cook beans" articles are completely out of place!

There are thousands of people who have turned away from this once-gorgeous publication that are just waiting for deMontravel's last day, hoping to have the OLD ROMANTIC HOMES MAGAZINE BACK.

Thanks for giving me a forum to vent here. If only RH online site would take feedback or allow readers' to write letters to the editor online, they would be buried in letters just like this one. But, even for those who take the time to write "snail mail", the chances of having their letter published is slim to none. It is obvious they screen out 99% of the critical "cancel my subscription" letters.

So I say SAVE ROMANTIC HOMES MAGAZINE! Dump deMontravel & her clique. Bring back the romance, roses and lace. I'll take a 5 year subscription!

1.0 out of 5 stars HORRIBLE, TERRIBLE Service from Amazon!, July 9, 2006

By 

Ashley D "Ashley" (Owasso, OK USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Romantic Homes (Magazine)

I am completely frustrated and upset with the delivery, or lack thereof, of the magazine subscription I received as a gift of Romantic Homes. This is my absolute favorite magazine and my husband purchased a year's subcription for me from Amazon.com for Christmas 2005! I still haven't received ONE magazine (it's now July 2006). Amazon assured me three times, over the past year, it was coming, it's now July and I still haven't received the magazine. I am so disappointed at the lack of customer service. I urge you to NEVER buy a magazine subscription from Amazon.com. This has been a horrible experience and I cannot believe that it has somehow become okay to run a business in this matter. I am tired of empty promises from Amazon.com while I am anxiously awaiting my magazine. Not only have I not received my magazine, the "people" at Amazon have NEVER offered a refund, a renewed subscription, ANYTHING! I realize it's a measly twenty-something dollars, but this business practice is horrible! I am also tired of speaking to people that do not speak English and are trying to help me. Please do better Amazon, this is terrible! Shame on you!

I absolutely love this magazine. I look forward to sitting and enjoying it every month. I only wish it would be a weekly magazine because I can't wait for the next edition. I use so many ideas from Romantic Homes. Keep those great ideas coming.
