"Even businesses that don't fare well in the ratings have grudging respect for [CHECKBOOK]’s attention to detail."


"One of the best things about CHECKBOOK is how thorough its ratings are. At least 10 people must rate a company before it's included in a survey. Staff members go undercover to get actual pricing information."


"One of the best sources of information for consumers is Puget Sound Consumers' Checkbook magazine. It offers ratings and advice so consumers can get the area's best prices and services."

CHECKBOOK has made a huge difference in helping me find competent service people as well as a doctor and a dentist.

This is a great service to the Puget Sound area!

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I recently had my car in the shop for an oil change and they told me I needed about $600 worth of suspension work. I took the car to a Checkbook highly rated shop much closer to my home for a a second opinion and estimate. Their estimate was about 65% of the dealers and I was very pleased in all respects with their work, courtesy and professionalism.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

It's a great referral/resource tool in the Seattle and Puget Sound area.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

This magazine has saved me a lot of headaches and pointed me in the right direction on several topics. Worth every penny! Local, so it's better than Angie's List and less expensive too.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I am always reading, and appreciative of the evaluations you provide.  I have shared some of your assessments with many of my coworkers... Thank you for your service.

Sample Subscriber Comments & Reviews for Tailors & Dressmakers in the Seattle (Puget Sound) Area
CHECKBOOK provides subscriber comments on their experiences with the firms they use. Please remember that individual subscriber comments are informal. Subscriber comments may give you insight into the types of features and problems that exist in a service field, but are not the best basis for selecting or rejecting a specific firm. To assess the quality of a firm's performance, we recommend that you give more weight to the percentages of favorable ratings. Those percentages are generally based on much larger numbers of consumers' ratings (the number of consumer ratings is noted above).

As You Can See Below, Some Tailors & Dressmakers Get High Praise from Their Customers.
