 Not worth the money November 4, 2006
Cornell Grad (Alexandria, VA United States)
13 out of 17 found this review helpful
I bought this after getting tired of handwriting my family's weekly menu thinking I could just find recipes and organize them using the calendar. First, the recipes are not great. They claim over 8,000 recipies and only 150 are listed under "kid-friendly". And what are they? Pizza with this, Pizza with that. Not very creative. The calendar feature is not at all user friendly. The shopping list is fine, although doesn't do a great job of merging, so you have a few different entries for "boneless chicken" depending on whether the recipe uses lbs or number of breasts. I think I'll go back to just looking through cookbooks and handwriting out the menu for the week. Just not worth the hassle.
 MasterCook Rip Off 9.0 April 8, 2007
Bradley W. Cagle (Monrovia CA)

MasterCook Deluxe 9.0 could barely pass for a shareware program that asks for a $2 donation to some PO Box in Las Vegas. This is an example of software rip off. It is like those late night get rich quick cons where they send you books of 100 pages with 5 words on each page. Full of features that do not work, non cohesive. Recipes they have compiled from free sources. No insight. I am just plain mad and disappointed. I hate being taken. Of all the items I have purchased from Amazon, I have never be before felt ripped off. Amazon should not carry bs programs like this. I WANT MY MONEY BACK AND NOT BY RIPPING OFF THE NEXT SUCCER BY RESELLING MY COPY TO SOME SAP.
THIS EXPERIENCE MAKES ME THINK TWICE ABOUT USING AMAZON ANYMORE.
 MasterCook 9 Review December 1, 2006
S. Berg (Broken Arrow, Ok United States)
12 out of 12 found this review helpful
I just bought MasterCook 9 as an upgrade to the version 5. I was not sure that I needed the upgrade, but went ahead anyway. I am very pleased with the new version. The recipes and the cookbooks are more up to date to today's way of cooking. One thing I was concerned about was merging my 4 personal cookbooks over. It went very smoothly. I merged all of the cookbooks over and thought I would delete the ones I did not need. I would recomend this software to everyone who wants to organize their personal recipes.
Shopping list causes entire program to crash February 19, 2006
Vicki L. Foster (Cape Coral, FL)

I purchased this product specifically for the shopping list feature. Unfortunately, it froze repeatedly while I was building my first list and I had to re-enter some of my data a couple of times. I REALLY wanted it to work so I kept at it. When I finally got my whole list entered and did a final save before I printed it, the entire program crashed and I lost all of my work (even though I had saved faithfully) AND all the cookbooks have disappeared. Very strange.
I removed it from my computer and do not plan to try again.
If you have Vista - Don't bother. May 19, 2008
Mikel Frasier (Turlock , CA USA)

If you buy a NEW machine and it comes with Vista, DON'T buy this product. It may install on the new PC and even work with the HELP patch, but just try and get your own menus off of the old (under XP) PC on to the new box (with Vista). If you have spent hours and hours getting your recipes in to MC you will need to hang on to your old PC just to run MC. Not an pleasant option. If you have to re-enter all your recipes go find something else that is Vista compatible. BTW, requests to MC support only state that:
"This title is not Vista compatible. The restore function is one of the features that Vista broke within Mastercook."
So if you have Vista don't bother with this product.
