When Good Housekeeping was first published in 1885, it cost only 10 cents a copy ... and women could not yet vote! A lot has changed in the last 125 years, but as editor in chief Rosemary Ellis points out, "What women want, which is to have a happy, full life, is the same now as it was then." One out of every five moms reads the magazine, and Rosemary explains that each issue is aimed at making life a little easier for them. "The women who read Good Housekeeping, their life is a juggling act, and what we do every month is we help them figure out how to juggle a little better," she says. "We answer the unspoken plea on the lips of readers, which is save me time, save me money and save me hassle."

Rosemary explains the process of earning the magazine's highly coveted Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval: "We test any product that applies for the seal really vigorously at the Good Housekeeping Research Institute to make sure of two things: first, that it works well, and second, that it does everything that it promises in its advertisements and on the packaging. If it doesn't do that, then it doesn't get the seal." Rosemary tells Rachael about an advantage consumers have with products that have passed their test. "Once a product does have the seal," she says, "for two years if it proves defective in any way, it's Good Housekeeping, not the manufacturer, who will refund your money or replace the item free of charge."
