Why read it?
1 author picked Cleaning Plain & Simple as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
This is a great roundup of cleaning ideas. Donna is particularly good at stain removal (even from window blinds), tool recommendations (which vacuum for which job), and safety (how to prevent mold and mildew). I’m a very visual learner, so I love all her charts that simplify so many tasks. She’s also not afraid to get into the chemistry of why things work.
From Joni's list on The best home organization books.
