The Portland Mercury described the format of Rendered in an article about Portland podcasts: "Destination DIY goes beyond the crafts 'n' home repair often associated with the term 'DIY' to encompass anything people can do themselves—from home funerals and taxidermy to representing yourself in court. Moreover, the show maintains an artful balance of general interest content and local events."{{cite web|url=http://www.portlandmercury.com/portland/pump-up-the-volume/Content?oid=6511757|title=Pump Up the Volume|work=Portland Mercury}} In January 2011, Sunset named Sabatier "Portland's DIY Queen" and wrote that the show "taps into the zeitgeist that is red hot in the West." Radio Survivor reported on Destination DIY's crowd-funding strategy in 2013 and described the show as a "polished production on par with a national public radio program."{{cite web|url=http://www.radiosurvivor.com/2013/11/20/podcast-survivor-crowdfunding-destination-diy/|title=Podcast Survivor: Crowdfunding Destination DIY|work=Radio Survivor|date=2013-11-20}}
