Ideas yes, instruction manual no January 16, 2004

By S. Mudder

Format:Paperback

We are about to embark on the remodeling of the basement of our first home. My husband picked up this book thinking it would give us some great ideas, and cause he loved all the photos. It does have great ideas, and made us think out of the box a bit on our basement plans. But, it lacks step-by-step instructions for the work to be done. Good book to help you visualize what you want to do, but don't expect it to tell you how to get the work done.

There are better books out there on this subject July 21, 2004

By D Barish

Format:Paperback

I bought this book at Home Depot for $14.95 because I was there and that was all they had. It is cheaper here on Amazon, first off.

But second, I am kind of disappointed. It is such a "surface" type of book. It looks good on the exterior but really lacks any type of meat.

We really want to put in a wet bar and an exercise area in our soon to be done basement and there really was only like a paragraph on each subject. I think it tries to tackle too many subjects and leaves no time to go into any of the subjects.

This book would look good in a doctor's office where you only have 10 minutes to peruse through what is there. That is about all it will accomplish.

The best thing about the book is definitely the floor plan symbols and the grid. So it isn't a complete waste of money. But don't expect for this book to go too in-depth on anything at all.

Great ideas June 22, 2008

By pilot27k

Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase

I just did a basement remodel without the aide of this book but I'm so glad I bought it. It has some great ideas and beautiful decorating to enjoy.

I saw it first at Home Depot for full price and got it at Amazon Marketplace for half the price. Can't beat that!
