excellent Nov 18, 2006
By Kimberley Wilson I've been waiting for years for Martha Stewart to write this book and I'm very pleased. It is expansive, tells you plainly what to do and what never to do and it has pictures (granted they are in black and white) rather than tiny artsy line drawings like the Home Comforts book. After reading Homekeeping I have finally discovered the easy way to clean my stove top and their is a noticeable difference in my kitchen. It was clean before but now I think it could pass a restaurant health inspection. I own other house keeping books but this one outclasses them all and I think it's really all a person needs. Thanks Martha.

Time-Saver How-To For Just About Everything... Nov 02, 2006
By TReno .
There are few items like this one.
It is more or less a home companion on how to clean, maintain, do and repair most every item in your home. There is lots of wisdom like we used to pass down from generation to generation, before people stopped listening and families fragmented.
Newly marrieds, new home owners, kids leaving the nest for the first time to college or to live alone, and those wanting to get organized and stay organzied with their home chores and maintenace, will find this book valuable.
It is more than a reference work, although it certainly is that. I actually have enjoyed browsing through it for fun, not just looking for specific information.

The tricks of Martha's trade :-) Nov 02, 2006
By Little Miss Cutey Be warned! This is a super heavy book (744 pages). It's like an encyclopedia for the home. It's full of helpful advice and it is really interesting.
The topics are broad. There is almost nothing uncovered. She talks about everything from ironing (how to completely, completely dewrinkle - underside of collar, inside of cuffs, inside of sleevefronts, outside of sleeves, outside of cuffs, inside of yolk etc etc), to stain removal (fix it right away - blot and drown the stain in cool water, blot again, more water, blot, etc), removing wax from tablecloths, and on and on. I especially loved reading on how to clear out the nasty smell in the microwave. I never knew what to do to get rid of that (till now).
It's such a helpful book for everyone - I can't imagine that there'd be someone out there who couldn't gain some insight from Martha's tips. It's easy to follow and find what you are after because she has put everything into specific catagories. So go out and get a copy because it's the perfect gift idea for the holiday's and a must for yourself in your home. I love it a lot.

Homekeeping Handbook Wasn't Handy Enough. Jan 05, 2007
By Sure I was excited to recieve this book as a gift, as I enjoy taking care of my home and the things in it. However, I feel like this book went far beyond the scope of practical housekeeping. It has gotten good reviews on Amazon, but it is about 500 pages too long for my personal taste. I would never have bought it for myself, nor will I ever purchase it as a gift for anyone else.
The book is heavy and has a really cheap dustjacket that doesn't stay on, making the mere act of opening the book unpleasant. I, too, would have enjoyed color photographs. I don't think it was wrong of readers to expect something just a little more aesthetically pleasing-- it is from Martha Stewart, after all.
This book would have greatly benefitted from page tabs or subtle color-coding along the edge of the pages to mark the different areas of housekeeping the book adresses. At nearly 750 pages, it is really a hassle to have to juggle this five-pound book with its worthless dustjacket in the midst of my chores. Skimming through the index, finding the page, then poring over the information to find what I need to know takes far longer than opening this laptop and searching online for "mustard stain removal", etc. This book is so exhaustive that there have been a few times I've actually forgotten what I'm looking for before I find it.
The book is too broad and comprehensive in areas of little benefit to this reader. Perhaps much of it could have been put in another book altogether, such as a "Homebuilding Handbook" or "Home Renovation Handbook" For one example, Martha writes individual directions on how to clean no less than one dozen different surfaces of kitchen countertop, from laminated plastic to granite to zinc, along with the pros and cons of each type of surface, spanning at least six pages of the book.
On the other hand, when I wanted to know the basic maintenance and cleaning of my regular old coffeemaker,I was out of luck-there's nothing like that in this book. However, I now know the benefits and drawbacks of ten different materials one can choose for their kitchen sink. Ummm...thanks??
(PSST! Hey Martha: If a person invested the kind of money to put a marble countertop or copper sink in their kitchen, wouldn't they already know that it takes special care? Or maybe they are the same people you feel the need to tell "Don't let anybody smoke near your baby." (Page 303, Nursery Safety Guidelines.)
Now, I do not have kids, but I think everybody already knows this, Martha. Those people you see blowing smoke in their baby's face? They know, too, Martha, they just don't _care_).
In short, for me, this book was like a Roomba. It sounded like a good idea, but it was just all over the place. When it did focus on an area, it did so with such intensity that other more important areas were missed entirely, or barely touched on.
I wanted to like this book, but its just more hassle than it is worth. I'll keep relying some favorite housekeeping websites for quicker reference, and if I am absolutely not sure about something, I'll use this book as a backup (and flower press).
Homekeeping Handbook was just too excessive in all the wrong places for me.

A must-have for homeowners and apartment-dwellers alike Dec 26, 2006
By Shannon Lee I just moved out of my parents' home this year and realized that I am next to clueless when it comes to home maintenance. So when I heard about this book I decided to have a look at it and was blown away. This tome covers everything imaginable for every room, and even has a few hints and tips that never would have passed my mind. Granted, I don't currently have every room listed but I might in the future, so it will be excellent for ears to come. This book is a great gift for anyone newly living on their own, anyone who just bought a house, and it would even make a wonderful wedding gift.
