"For years, one of my most favorite consumer publications has been Washington Consumers' CHECKBOOK. It's where I always go to check on the best car-repair shops, plumbers, furniture stores, doctors, roofers, cobblers, etc. You name the field, CHECKBOOK has price and quality ratings for the companies."


"If you don't have a friend or a neighbor who happens to know a great doctor or contractor for every occasion, you might try Washington Consumers' CHECKBOOK magazine."

Just want to say how grateful I am for Checkbook. I have used their recommendations for a mechanic, orthopedist, primary care physician, opthamologist, roofer, pest control service, tree service, and have been happy with everyone.

What a great resource for finding quality services at reasonable prices.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I wish every locale had a Checkbook…Checkbook covers it ALL! Friends who have never heard it get really excited when I show it to them. My dentist and doctor were both really pleased when I showed them their high marks.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Consumer Checkbook has been used frequently by our family for many years. It's a great resource for quality and reasonable costs for repairs/services/products.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I've been a fan for years. Probably my two biggest successes with CHECKBOOK were the tips in finding a dentist and in procuring and installing new windows in our home. It's a MUST reference.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I revere Checkbook and always tell my friends and neighbors when I once more found a great plumber or whatever I needed. Your listings never disappoint.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I have much to thank Checkbook for. You have saved me a passle of money, I have used throughout this 220K renovation, I am 1/2 way through…Some day I will sit down and figure out how many thousands and tens of thousands of dollars you have saved me…

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

My husband and I are in the process of hiring contractors for several projects. We think a subscription to your magazine is money well spent.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

The first place I look before going shopping.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

Consumer's CheckBook is an excellent resource for finding great deals that really are great and not just cheap. I recently saved over a hundred dollars for eyeglasses.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I have appreciated the information I have received from your publication and services.  It helped me to pick a very satisfactory eye doctor and also a dentist.  I contributed to your surveys whenever I had a service to report on.

                      A Consumers' CHECKBOOK Subscriber

I have enjoyed Checkbook and have used it alot. It was a big help in two moves, with homeowners insurance, and in other areas. Thanks again.

This rating web site is superb.  It is hard to imagine how you could make it easier. My congratulations to those responsible.

You have a wonderful magazine.  It is the first place to which I turn before contracting for any service or buying any big product.  Thanks for the excellent work.

If Checkbook ever asks me for a rating on itself, I'll be sure to give it a 100% rating!!

Sample Subscriber Comments & Reviews for Opticians in the Washington DC 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 Opticians Get High Praise from Their Customers.
Some Others Don't. So Choose Carefully.
