I watch both QVC & HSN, but more QVC because of the sheer numbers of their inventory and ability to show more.  

 

I think the HSN hosts are trained very differently, and as such they have more poise and get to the point of presenting items better.  But just like with QVC, I like to watch some and not others.  

 

I do think the QVC hosts give more pertinent information, especially about sizing.  I can watch an entire HSN show on fashions and the host may mention sizing a mere couple of times for a fraction of the items.  HSN tends to just post the models' sizing info in the small graphics on the side of the screen.  That can get very frustration if you miss it and the online measurements are missing or confusing.

 

On HSN, I love Marla Wynne, Andrew Lessman, and some of DG2's designs, so I watch out for those.  Also, Beekman 1802 seems to have better deals there (all my Beekman A-Ds are on HSN).

I must disagree. I don’t watch QVC that much & only in the evening & for specific products. I don’t enjoy the chaos on some of the QVC shows so I don’t watch them but HSN hosts are boring & the products are of no interest to me. I’ve purchased DG2 jeans in the past which smelled, turned my legs the color of the Jean, color ran in my laundry, ruined clothes & they stretched so much, they fell down. I purchased Jay King jewelry & the settings of silver were poor quality & terrible designs. Marla Wynn has decent quality but not really my style. From, my experience, quality isn’t equal on HSN to QVC quality. I’ve never received a coupon & am a card holder but I haven’t ordered in a very long time & don’t foresee ordering in the future. I probably wouldn’t use the coupon anyway & am perfectly happy with QVC.
