5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource, December 3, 2006
By Steven A. Peterson (Hershey, PA (Born in Kewanee, IL)) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
The 2007 Consumer Reports Buying Guide has just come out. And for consumers, that is great news!

Each year, informed consumers await the issuing of the latest Buying Guide. This year's guide covers items from A (autos, air conditioners, air cleaners) to W (washing machines).

Special projects are made easy. Do you need a "new" used car? Good price and good quality? Take a look at the relevant section in the Buying Guide. Want to spend less than $6000 and get a good used car? Bingo. Check out the listing on page 191. Want a $12,000 to $14,000 good quality used car? Take a look on page 192. And a car by car examination of the pluses and minuses of each make follows the prices a few pages later, so that one can check out both price AND quality.

So, if you are interested in some advice on what to purchase, the 2007 Buying Guide would be a nice investment.

3.0 out of 5 stars Buying Guide needs to guide some more, January 9, 2007
I have always been a big fan of the Buying Guide, but the 2007 version seems to be lacking in several critical reviews for household products. Next time I will probably just go to the library to look up the articles themselves.
