Used to subscribe/fine magazine/subscribe no more

Very good content. However, page size has gotten smaller, subsequently, so has the print size. The magazine is now very difficult to read. I decided to not renew my subscription. I would recommend the magazine to a friend only if they can easily read the small print.

Didn't get what I ordered.

I ordered the magazine in large print and it did not come with it - Normal print which is too hard for my grandma to read.

Articles and topics largely now seem to have an agenda

I've subscribed to the magazine for roughly 30 years and it has always been my favorite magazine, hands down! The last few years though it has changed and instead of the editors selecting the most interesting articles and topics, which should definitely be the top priority for any general reader magazine, it appears they now have an agenda. Unfortunately this has made the magazine far less interesting and readable, and frankly the agenda is so obvious as to be distracting. It is clear that certain topics and writers are being solicited instead of selecting from naturally submitted content - the changes are too obvious and obnoxious not to be. I wouldn't be surprised at all if they had a checklist for each issue. That's not how I want my reading content determined, sorry. If you have fewer and fewer subscribers your agenda is a moot point! Will be looking elsewhere for a new magazine after 30 mostly amazing years of reading this one.

DISAPPOINTED

I LOVE THE SMITHSONIAN MUSEUM AND WAS HOPING THERE WOULD BE LOTS OF INTERESTING THINGS
IN THE MAGAZINE HOWEVER I FIND THEY ONLY WRITE ABOUT ONE MAJOR THEME PER ISSUE AND IF I AM NOT INTERESTED IN THAT ONE THEME, THEN THE ISSUE IS WORTHLESS. LET THEM HAVE MORE DIVERSE ISSUES SO THERE IS SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE IN EVERY ISSUE.

I will not recomend this product.

I find the magazine to be of a much lower quality paper and tons of advertising adds not happy at all, and as soon as I figure out how to cancel I will.

Yes. I will probably keep up his subscription.

This was a gift for my grandson. He is very into science and history and loves all the stories, discoveries and past science discoveries. He just visited the Natural Science Museum on a school trip and was impressed. His sister has also started to read it.
