1.0 out of 5 stars
pass on this one!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Everything Organize Your Home Book (Everything (Home Improvement)) (Paperback)
I was really disappointed in the content of this book. The bookwas not very family friendly. A lot of the material reviewed was common knowledge. The only highlights were the web sites and phone numbers for stores that specialize in storage space. The book was not very practical. How many people in real life are going to hire an expert to help with organizing our homes? I think that this author may have insight on how to help with basic organization. However, if you are a mother who needs advise on how to manage organizing your house while working, cooking, cleaning and spending time with your family I would pass on this one. Unless of course you want to hire an expert to remodel your kitchen for 22,000 dollars. (This was one of the options for organizing your kitchen.) I just need help on how to keep my kitchen drawers clean!

Waste of Time,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Everything Organize Your Home Book (Everything (Home Improvement)) (Paperback)
This book reads as a 280 page advertisement for various online organizing and storage retailers. They also throw in such helpful hints such as: fold your clean towels before putting them in the linen closet and keep a pad and paper next to the phone for messages. I finished the book mostly for the amusement factor. I still don't know what they intended by their suggestion that we store our HAIR in the cabinet under the bathroom sink! Don't waste your time or money on this book.

Who doesn't already know this stuff?,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Everything Organize Your Home Book (Everything (Home Improvement)) (Paperback)
There isn't much in this book that benefits real people. It reads like a catalog for online resources and household items ("Yes, this stuff really works as advertised!"). It also leans heavily toward people who are building their homes from the ground up. The rest is just obvious common sense ("if two people are sharing a dresser, each person should have his or her own drawers"). The only somewhat redeeming chapter is "Taking Charge of Your Day", which attempts to help maximize time spent during the day through priortization. Again, mostly common sense advice which served more as a reminder of what I already knew than an original, concrete approach. Overall, I learned more from my mom growing up than I did from this book.
