Nice replacement for my Oprah Magazine.
Like the concise and to the point articles. Good suggestions sprinkled in magazine. Very heavy with the advertisements...but then the ads rip out quickly, leaving a more simple Real Simple read.

The heft and page quality of this magazine is impressive, but it's mostly advertising. Very disappointing. It does have some useful info and I do enjoy reading it (which is why it got 2 stars from me), but I definitely won't be renewing my subscription.

REAL SIMPLE is exactly what the name implies. There is no clutter on the pages, which is fitting because this is the best magazine for people combatting clutter. It's excellent for those individuals that can't multi-task well and never throw anything away!
 I *adore* this magazine July 19, 2006

I am not a big magazine reader -- never have been, never really had time to! However, a friend of mine at work kept bringing me copies of this magazine to read...after falling in love every time read it I finally I had to get a subscription of my own!
This magazine covers everything! It's got tips for life, cooking, decorating, organzing, and getting the best deal for your money. A lot of the stuff in here -- shortcut cooking ideas, for instance, are stuff that I use and apply to my normal life.
For example: the July 2006 issue has a dessert shortcut for peach cobbler. The result of that recipe was a WONDERFUL dessert for my family of four that took me... less than 15 minutes to prepare and tasted great!
They don't endorse products NEARLY to the same degree that most magazines do, and when they do it's in an article where they had comparisons done...always a recommendation, and usually more than one. The important thing here is they don't say "buy this product" they say "buy products that have such and such feature, make sure it has this in it for silky smooth hair, and oh here's an example of what we're talking about." They make you an informed shopper instead of just throwing products at you withotu reason or rhyme.
So, in conclusion, if you're like me and can use a few extra ideas about EVERYTHING in your life...this is a great magazine. The information is helpful, applicable to normal everyday life...and it's not so full of ads that you want to choke the advertisers.
