Review
“Call her the clean queen. Toni Hammersley, the American homekeeping guru, has written the ultimate guide to cleaning, fittingly titled The Complete Book of Clean. Hammersley’s bible of clean covers every corner of the home from the bathroom to the office and is filled with hundreds of tips like iron clothes while they’re damp (it’s easier to get wrinkles out of cotton and linen) and how to make a simple bathroom cleanser (2 tablespoons of liquid Castile soap, 20 drops of tea tree oil and hot water).” ― TheStar.com
About the Author
Toni Hammersley is the celebrated author of The Complete Book of Home Organization and the founder of A Bowl Full of Lemons, an international online community dedicated to cleaning, organizing, and budgeting advice. Her household lessons and expert recommendations have appeared in such media outlets as Oprah.com, Ladies Home Journal, Better Homes & Gardens, HGTV.com, and InStyle.

I like the way how there are pictures and how she has recipes and how she explains everything in different sections but I think she's a little inconsistent with a lot of her explanations. It would also be helpful if she could give examples of the items that she recommends like where to buy them or which brand she likes. I understand how she likes that everything is environmental but if you have a look at one of her photos she has a pantry cupboard full of plastic watet bottles - a bit hypocritical don't you think. Everything looks so expensive basically she is saying that only people who have an amazing house wants a clean house I have a very average house and and what appreciate photos or explanations of basic kitchens for example

This book is extremely well written and the perfect guide to cleaning your home. This tool (book) is a must have in any home because it provides clear, simple guidance to maintaining a tidy home. The photographs are so inspirational and because I am a visual learner it works great for me. With wedding season approaching I will be purchasing several of these books as gifts. This book was not a disappointment and money well spent!

Love this book!!! Great tips on cleaning every little detail of each room in a snippet. Inspiring and beautiful pictures.It is a book I use over and over. A great resource. There are also many recipes for natural cleaning solutions. Toni is thorough and to the point. You will be excited to clean again after thumbing through this book. I tell everyone I know about this book. Feel at peace that it is on my shelf and at peace by following the advice. Never had such a clean home. No need to turn on your computer to find out how to clean x when this book is on your shelf.

If you ever wondered how to clean something in your home, you’ll find all the details here. Great step by step tips for cleaning everything imaginable. Recipes for making your own natural cleaners. This is a good resource for people who want lists to help them keep their homes clean, although I’m not one of those people and the frequency they suggest seems excessive. Toni also has a book on home organization that I will read next (so I’m reading out of order, yet my biggest tip is having less items makes cleaning a breeze. That’s why I don’t need lists for cleaning). I will use this book when I need to clean silver, pillows, remove stains and make my own cleaning products.

Love it! I use homemade cleaning products already but certainly learned a few things from this book.
The one thing I love about this authors books is that it REALLY motivates you to clean more and to see the enjoyment in it by breathing new life into it.
Schedules are great too. She's amazing!

A good source of information

I find this book is well-presented and gives useful information to people who want to avoid using chemically produced cleaners. Although it did seem a bit American in some of its vocabulary, this book is quite readable.

This is such a good book if you want a cleaning schedule weekly or monthly, I’m not really into making my own cleaning products but the tips and check lists are useful
