Good Fixins

1000 words are not enough to tell you how wonderful this book is. The only book in the house that is used more is the phone book. Everyone in the family has been empowered to fix something. As the father of three teens, it's nice to have my children willing to handle household repairs on their own. Now, when I say you broke it, you fix it, the only question is "where's Mrs. Fixit?"I would recommend this book to everyone and have.

Perfect reference tool!

I have been a loyal fan of Mrs. FIXIT for several years, I enjoy her news segments and refer to her website often to solve problems around my home. This book is great, I moved into a new home a few weeks ago and can't even say how many times I've used this book already. Way to go Mrs. FIXIT!!!

A Great Repair Reference!

I bought this book a week ago and I've already used a dozen of the tips. I'm a husband and father that values my time with my family. Little things around the house pop up that need to be mended or fixed all the time. By using the tips in this book, I already saved valuable time that I've spent with my family. When I was reading the book, I found myself making a list of things that needed to be repaired or fixed around the house. I ended up with a legal sized work list with 95% of it easy remedies that will not take long to do. The best part of it is that most of my repairs can be done right away with stuff around the house. I do not have to go to the hardware store for any special tools or cleaners. I never knew that baking soda could be used for more than keeping things fresh in the refridgerator! I like things done quickly, easily, and right the first time. This book is a great reference for everyday little fixits.

Fessing Up

As a very busy physician who relaxes by reading, I recently confessed to watching and enjoying cooking shows on T.V. while on my treadmill. Lo and behold many of the other docs in our lounge 'fessed up' to the same habit and we shared a laugh. Well, double Lo and behold, when I recently fessed up to reading and rereading "Mrs Fixit home repair" and using it as a reference scource for so many "diddly" household chores it created a stir. Several other docs (all male) bought the book and agree that this will someday be a "Dr. Spocks" for the household challenged. Lots of fun and very useful.
