I love my Bay Area (San Francisco Bay Area) Checkbook and have given subscriptions out as presents.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

When I need to find quality help at a good price I turn to Consumer Checkbook.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Whenever I need a service, I always hope Checkbook has produced their ratings.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I've never been disappointed by the recommendations from Consumers' Checkbook.After all the reviews are from consumers,not advertisers.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I've used these books to find everything from tailors, to mechanics, to dentists. It's a great resource when trying to spend money wisely.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I have subscribed to Checkbook for many years. It is something one simply cannot be without!

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Very helpful for many kinds of services. Just because you have Angies List as I do, does not mean you don't need this too. Checkbook often has better or the only coverage.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

My first "Go To" reference for anything in the Bay Area!

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I shall stick with Checkbook. I'm dropping Angie's List because it is too expensive for what I get out of it. I don't trust Yelp, so right now Checkbook seems to be the best option for impartial reviews. I like the subscriber reviews too, and you changed the menu access to them.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Your service is INVALUABLE. I cannot compliment you enough on your magazine and on-line referral and information service. I would be absolutely lost without you. Thank you, thank you, thank you…

Your work is very important for us - so thank you for your help this year.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Good suggestions for vendors and also on which services are really necessary.
