Book Reviews of Real Simple: Cleaning
Book Review: Beautiful Settings
Summary: 4 Stars
This book offers great advice and many good methods for cleaning but it's real charm lies within the beautiful pictures, masterfully set in a beautiful New England home. The book is recommended for its content and it great pictures.Book Review: Not exactly what I expected...
Summary: 3 Stars
I have no objection to the book -- it's in a nice format and attractive looking, however, the advice is a bit on the "lite" side. Advice like "Dirty switchplates? Use a Q-tip dipped in alcohol to clean them." Well, I'm no genius at cleaning (hence, I purchased this book), but I think I could figure that one out!!! Most of the book was like that for me. I don't mean to be totally negative, there were several worthwhile tips.
My advice? Try to buy the book used at a reduced price. It's not worthless, just not worth as much as I had hoped.
Book Review: Same version in newstands for 1/2 the price
Summary: 3 Stars
It's a pretty basic guide. Though it has a nifty little calendar in it that helps u organize when what should be cleaned and how often. But u can get a paperback version in newsstands now, so check around, and it's half the original price of the spiral bound one.Book Review: Not something you don't already 3 Stars
Nice layouts great pictures of sparking homes with nothing in them - really since I have alot of my stuff in mine and have to clean around it - must be easy for them. Nothing in here you don't already know -Book Review: Nothing New Here
Summary: 2 Stars
I didn't feel this book offered anything new. Rehash of ideas I've heard 100 times.
