2 Issues Only
We have only received two issues of this magazine since November, 2017. That is 8 months in total of subscription - and we should have received at least 3-4. I have contacted publisher twice with no response. I saw a review before I ordered this magazine that said they had the same problem. I thought it was just a fluke and it would all be fine. This is my first Amazon review - so I am purposely going out of my way to tell you this seems like some kind of scam. Daughter disappointed that issues did not arrive as she thought magazine subscription holiday gift was a lot of fun. She liked the magazine, but I think the disappointment of not receiving additional issues outweighs the content of mailed issues.

THIS IS A TWICE A YEAR SUBSCRIPTION ONLY
After waiting almost 4 months for our magazine I contacted Amazon and after some searching they found that this is now a twice a year only magazine, not worth the price for 2 magazines!

Do not order from this company
I ordered this on August 4. Now, over 11 weeks have gone by and no magazine. Super lame.

Not worth it
Purchased magazine on May 1, 2020 for my son who is starting to learn to ride and equitation. It is now September 16, 2020 and we have yet to receive a magazine and “return window” has closed. I do NOT. Recommend this company.

Where are the issues?
We got two issues and haven't seen any since. For the price it wasn't a complete waste, but the little one was disappointed.

Ridiculously Long Time Waiting For It To Ship! Not worth it
The magazine itself seems great. Our kiddos enjoy it. My problem is the ridiculous shipping! It took forever to receive one magazine. So long that I ended up buying the magazines from our local farm store so our kids could have it. We won’t be re ordering.

Frustrating Robot Customer Service
Dealing with I-5 Publishing has been frustrating. Their customer support has been an automated labyrinth of false promises.
