The recs for professional supplies and vacuums have already saved me at least 50% of my cleaning costs - not to mention improved my time and cleaning. I send this book to new brides.

5.0 out of 5 stars great for anyone who wants more free time, December 31, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Is There Life After Housework (Paperback)

The author's tongue-in-cheek style coupled with no nonsense and sensible advise takes the drudgery out of housework. I have been able to save so much time and work half as hard to keep the same amount of floor space clean. When we built our new house, I picked up a lot of his suggestions for floor coverings, paint and windows that make cleaning a snap. I have gotten this book for wedding showers, birthdays, and thank-you's -- it makes the perfect gift!

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book about quickly cleaning your house., September 23, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Is There Life After Housework (Paperback)

This was a wonderful book about quickly cleaning your house like the professionals do. Mr. Aslett covered weekly cleaning, spring cleaning, painting, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, stain removal and many other cleaning topics too numerous to mention. It had lots of line drawings which were helpful. If I had found this book as a younger person I would have had a much cleaner house in much less time, years ago.
