Anyone use them? Comments?
It is a nice consolidated resource listing of contractors and much like Amazon's customer reviews, it works when there is feedback. There are at times offers to subscribers for various services as well. But those "specials" are on par with a good/expected competitive pricing anyways.
Has worked great for me. The people that had good reviews turned out to be good, and I also grabbed a couple deals that saved a lot of money (like replacing the electrical panel and all circuit breakers for $300).
I also leverage it by telling the people I contact that I found them on Angie's List and how much I value the reviews, and that's why I always review people I use. They get the hint.

I've been wondering if they are any good...it seems like 90% of the people I know who have had work done or contracting done in their homes have had really bad experiences, so having some sort of accountability system to keep things honest seems like a really good idea :thumbsup:
Why pay when there's Service Magic (HomeAdvisor) for free?
I trust Yelp more or less...no need to pay for reviews.I think as a business, Angie's List will eventually become free because there just aren't enough people staying on as a long-term subscriber.
