Utilizing the most effective shortcuts to save time and money, I discovered the joy of watching homes transform before the eyes of once-frustrated owners.

I love the thought of scheduling the deep cleans. I've always just winged it whenever I had the time or inclination to do the same.
I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
I’ve been looking a long time for a realistic book on cleaning strategies. This is not it. How does the author only need to do two loads of laundry (plus a 3rd for sheets) PER WEEK?!?! Since her family is obviously not continuously generating the level of clutter that a typical family does, it’s no wonder that her estimates for how long things take are laughably inaccurate. I do like that she at least tries to estimate times and I picked up another thing or two to try, so 3 stars is my final verdict.
Good book. really nice advice about how to keep your house clean. Maybe you can also write about different equipment you can use while cleaning such as the innovative iRobot Roomba and how to maintain them. Something like this https://tileuk-magazine.com/irobot-ro....
Best advice for people who never cleaned a day in their life or have a hard time learning the best items to use for the job. I found a few tips about organizing that might help me but as for the cleaning, didn’t learn much that my parents or grandparents taught me since they knew what elbow grease helps in more then just cleaning.
Glad I didn’t pay for the book. I’ve been doing MORE than what she recommended all my adult life and I keep a clean home. I was hoping for a nugget-a good tip. Got nothing.
