10th Anniversary Edition Don Aslett has won the hearts of millions by showing them how to save up to 75% of the time they spend on housework'with the help of his cleaning classic, Is There Life After... This description may be from another edition of this product.
When I was a new stay-home mom, I was overwhelmed with housework. I bought a lot of "how to clean the house books", and they were mostly the tricks of how other moms do it. Don Aslett is different: he is a Janitor. He says, "Don't clean the way your mom taught you; do it like the professionals!" Janitors have to get it done quickly and efficiently so they can move on to the next house. Moms need to get it done so they can get down to the business of quality time with their family. I threw out all my grocery-store products, and went down to the janitorial supply. It was a lot cheaper. (And if I had not read the book, I would not have known to ask for the "professional discount", which they gave me.) I was cleaning the house with less energy and getting more results. Don Aslett is the guru of house cleaning: he knows a lot, he shares all the info, and he is funny.

The recs for professional supplies and vacuums have already saved me at least 50% of my cleaning costs - not to mention improved my time and cleaning. I send this book to new brides.
The best book ever written on house cleaning
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
This is the only book on house cleaning you will ever need. It lets the homeowner in on the secrets of professional cleaners, and provides clear, commonsense advice on maintaining a home - while maintaining your sanity. I especially enjoyed "cleaning you can ignore" and "if you have a dirty house and just a few minutes". This book would be a great gift for newlyweds.
A great book about quickly cleaning your house.

This was a wonderful book about quickly cleaning your house like the professionals do. Mr. Aslett covered weekly cleaning, spring cleaning, painting, carpet cleaning, window cleaning, stain removal and many other cleaning topics too numerous to mention. It had lots of line drawings which were helpful. If I had found this book as a younger person I would have had a much cleaner house in much less time, years ago.
