1.0 out of 5 stars Look for ideas in other books, December 13, 2002

By	Amy Hilliard (VA, United States) - See all my reviews

I like many of the books in the Ideas for Great series. However, I was disappointed with this one. The photos are only so-so. They are not very inspiring, and the bathrooms are limited in style choices. The tips also left something to be desired. They were not very substantive or informative. I would skip this book. If you want a bathroom book with great photos, take a look at House Beautiful Bathrooms.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good source for ideas, September 2, 2001

By	W. Oliver (Alabama) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

If you are looking for ideas and inspiration, this book will be helpful because it is mainly composed of beautiful photos of all types of bathrooms and situations. It does contain brief sections which cover layout basics, design ideas and remodeling realities but the bulk of the book are photos to help inspire and give design ideas. A "shopper's guide" in the back of the book covers countertops, cabinets, wall coverings, flooring, windows and skylights and light fixtures. If you are looking for more technical information and instruction, you might want to take a look at "Bathrooms: Design, Remodel, Build" published by Creative Homeowner.

1.0 out of 5 stars A nice picture book but not realistic, June 5, 2005

By	fcb64 (Chicago, IL) - See all my reviews

This book only shows enormous homes with tons of space. I'm a city dweller and can't see how this book can accommodate a (average to small) sized city bungalow, townhouse or condominium. Most of the homes displayed are these huge newer homes. If you're tight on space and want to re-do your bathroom, this book will just confuse you with unrealistic ideas.
