L. Bryant: Great book for explaining easily how to do perhaps everything around the house and yard! I love it better than going to youtube. Quick and easy to just run to this book. Perfect pictures along with easy explanations.

Liz: I bought this as part of a graduation gift, then ended up buying another for myself. As a lifelong Martha stan, this is necessary for anyone’s shelf but especially those just entering “adulthood”. From how to change a faucet to hosting a dinner party, there is an answer for almost all the random things you probably didn’t learn in school and don’t want to sift through internet advice to figure out. I often find myself asking “WWMD?” and this holds the answers I seek.

Marie: Covers a wide range of topics. Beautiful art design, if on sale I'd get two and save one for Christmas. You'll be the talk over turkey. If they gave this book out free to all graduates it would increase the countries GDP

MJS: The manual was a birthday gift. Upon looking through it before wrapping, it had a lot of very practical and useful information. Photos are plentiful to help with instructions. Recipient was most pleased as it was on their wish list.

MisterPlow: I liked the library version so much that I had to buy one, especially since I just moved. I will get a lot out of it, but I think you almost need to be someone who grew up without the Internet to appreciate the value of an all-in-one home book like this. For me, it's so easy to reach for the book, but you might have a website you like and trust.
One star off only because there are a few how-to's made too simplistic for their difficulty level, like reupholstering chairs, which I believe to be more complicated and more trouble/expense than they're worth. Even at times like that, you can use the book as a starting point. Sometimes it helps to have a guide that tells you the terminology or techniques you can google later for more info.
I'm not going to say it's a miracle guide to your daily life, but you'll pick up some good tips. I recommend it. Decent gift for new home owners, recent college grads, newlyweds, etc.

Angela: I got the “slightly used”. It’s not in great condition and still has the public library stickers and a stamp.
