"I looked through part of this book and learned a few things, but I didn't try to read the whole thing. I have been conscious of motion efficiency since I read the book "Cheaper by the Dozen" in junior high, so that idea with cleaning was nothing new to me. And two things bothered me: 1) The tone felt condescending enough to almost offend me at times, and 2) It wasn't written for a mom with children at home. In order to follow this method completely (and thus clean my whole house in 45 minutes), I would have to take my children to someone else's house and find a cleaning partner to help me (my husband is rarely home to help these days)--every week. As that is not going to happen, I doubt I will ever be able to use the method myself. However, I did learn about a mop that is now on my wish list... :)"
"Recently I have felt depressed with the level of cleanliness in my home. I asked a group of friends for advice. One friend told me the philosophy of this book and then lent me the book. My friend grew up with this method, swears by it, but also controls the ideas (rather than being controlled by them).
The author claims that a well-used bathroom can be cleaned in 15 minutes. After a month of trying I've cut my cleaning time in half and am almost to that point. I have changed my method of cleaning and feel more success with the outcome. This does not mean that my house is yet perfect. To truly utilize the ideas I feel that you have to start with a deep cleaned house and that will take awhile. But at least when I look at the dirt in all the corners I think, I'll get to that..."
