 Basic but useful March 11, 2008
I was looking for more original ideas, not just basic knowledge. It's a good book for a young person with their first ever apt or flat, but it's really quite basic.
 Great September 30, 2007
I gave the book as a gift and the person loved it and said that the book was very helpful.

This book is lovely and has some excellent ideas. It you read the magazine, Real simple, most of the suggestions can be found there or on the web site. I wish I had some rooms (i.e.laundry) to organize. There are not many ideas that are adaptable to a smaller house/apartment living

The book is good for putting things into perspective - as far as organizing room by room. It is easy to read and understand. The pictures are excellent for giving you ideas for your own home. Things you might not have thought of to use - the items are very reasonably priced in retail stores, so it makes for an economical fix to storage problems. Overall: a good book for the unorganized and organized alike.
 Perfect for new home or apartment owners! August 14, 2005

I bought this book in the store after flipping through it. If you like Real Simple (the magazine), this book is for you. The ideas in the book are perfect for first-timers who are looking to organize all their stuff as they move in to a new place. I love the photos and suggestions - from cleaning products to furniture ideas to color schemes. One wish I have for this book is that they would have shared the best places to buy these things, but a lot of the products, units and furniture seem like they could be purchased in local department stores or stores like Ikea.
