Customer Reviews This book is amazing., January 14, 2002 Reviewer: dagawa from Greeley, CO USA I have not bought this book...yet. I recently borrowed it from the library, and will keep renewing it until they force me to return it. When they do, I intend on hunting it down at my neighborhood bookstore. This book is very comprehensive for the do-it-yourselfer that is just starting out, and contains many neat tips and tricks that even the expert handyman would not have known. The book is extremely useful for everyday stuff, and even has instructions on those once a year fix-it items. The book is arranged in different categories, such as Lawn & Garden, Plumbing, Electrical Appliances, with subcategories like pruning, toilets, and washer/dryer. About half of each page is covered with colorful handrawn pictures that apply to the tips listed. Most tips don't have pictures, but these are usually ones that don't require them. The other half of the page contains detailed instructions on how to replace/repair/install items of importance. These instructions have real pictures of the process, and are wonderful for reference. I would recommend this book to anyone who owns a home. Once you buy it, read everything once so you'll know what's in there, then put it in an accessible place so you can grab it at a moments notice. Excellent source of clever ideas and tips, October 20, 1999 Reviewer: A reader from Bethesda, MD While not a comprehensive home repair guide (superficial instructions and difficult to see and poorly labeled photos and diagrams), this book is a useful addition to home repair libraries. When tackling a home repair, the book provides numerious time-saving and result enhancing suggestions on how to maket the job go more smooothly with a higher quality outcome. A must for every home owner!!, May 7, 1999 Reviewer: A reader from Richmond, Virginia As a single parent and homeowner, I can't tell you how handy this book has been. If you don't have a friend, relative or spouse who's a handyman, you definitely need this book. I've been able to save enough money to furnish my home. I've purchased many of the Reader's Digest books in the past and found them to be of high quality and excellent value. This book contains step-by-step procedures and instructions that are depicted in numbered color photos that makes easy work of repairs and maintenance-plus you are assured it's done right. how to fix a Dryer, April 18, 1999 Reviewer: A reader from U Dryer is not drying clothes in on hour or less it's take 4 hours for clothes to dry Household Hints Related Book: 1001 Do-It-Yourself Hints & Tips : Tricks, Shortcuts, How-Tos, and Other Great Ideas for Inside, Outside, and All Around Your House by Readers Digest Hardcover: 352 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.13 x 10.30 x 8.10 Publisher: Reader's Digest Adult; (April 1998) ISBN: 0762100494 A Well-Kept Home : Household Traditions and Simple Secrets from a French Grandmother by Laura Fronty, Yves Duronsoy (Photographer) Hardcover: 160 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.72 x 11.34 x 8.76 Publisher: Universe Books; (April 2001) ISBN: 0789305283 Baking Soda: Over 500 Fabulous, Fun and Frugal Uses You'Ve Probably Never Thought of by Vicki Lansky, Martha Campbell (Illustrator) Paperback: 120 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.37 x 7.39 x 6.12 Publisher: Book Peddlers; (April 1995) ISBN: 0916773426 Better Basics for the Home: Simple Solutions for Less Toxic Living by Annie Berthold-Bond Paperback: 400 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 1.02 x 9.14 x 7.43 Publisher: Three Rivers Press; (June 1999) ISBN: 0609803255 Clutter Control: Putting Your Home on a Diet by Jeff Campbell, Clean Team, The Clean Team Staff Paperback: 159 pages ; Dimensions (in inches): 0.46 x 5.31 x 8.01 Publisher: DTP; (May 1992) ISBN: 0440503396 Field Guide to Stains: How to Identify and Remove Virtually Every Stain Known to Man by Virginia M.
