Publisher's summary

From the cleaning and home-keeping expert and creator of the wildly popular Clean Mama blog comes a simple and accessible cleaning guide with a proven step-by-step schedule for tidying a home in just 10 minutes a day.

Becky Rapinchuk, the "Clean Mama", understands that many people don't have enough time, organizational skills, or homemaking habits to have a constantly clean and decluttered living space.

In Simply Clean, she can help you effortlessly maintain a tidy house and build habits to become a "clean person" - no matter how messy you may naturally be! Along with a 7-Day Simply Clean Kickstart and a 28-Day Simply Clean Challenge, Rapinchuk includes plans for customizing the Simply Clean Routine to fit the busiest of schedules and any type or size of home.

This guide also contains step-by-step tutorials for cleaning hard-to-clean spaces; dozens of recipes for organic, environmentally conscious cleaning supplies; and many of Rapinchuk's famous checklists, schedules, and habit trackers. It really is possible - in just 10 minutes a day, you can create a cleaner, happier home!

Great content, terrible narration

I love the ideas and the pdf lists is worth the credit, but I can’t get passed the cold, robotic, disingenuous voice of the narrator. She sounds like a GPS voice which, as a person who struggles with home management, can’t relate to the authors own struggles at all. Big turn off when you’re deciding if you can commit to someone’s plan. I’ll likely buy the hard copy though because I enjoy her blog and would like to read the full story.

Great Listen!

I was concerned about purchasing a how-to book in audio format, but I loved it! Actually, an audio edition lends to the whole notion of needing speed cleaning: you probably don't have time to see and READ a book on it, either. The author's use of repetition (sharing the same ideas in multiple chapters) also made it easier to internalize and remember without print in front of me. Truth be told, I even found it to be pretty relaxing to listen to! I plan to play Simply Clean over and over.

Robotic voice and redundant material

I’ve listened to some wonderful cleaning books, but this one is just okay. It is redundant in its presentation of material. The vocal talent used sounds awkward and robotic. The downloadable material is the best thing going for this audiobook. It’s a bit contradictory at times as well.

Good info but repetitive

I really enjoyed the first couple chapters. The further I got into it though, the more it seemed repetitive and tedious. If I were to have organized this book, I would have organized it by location in the home because multiple chapters will discuss the same locations that were already discussed. In my mind, I was like, “She went over this already,” except sometimes she’ll discuss it in more (tedious and unnecessary) detail. I get it. This is a book about cleaning. But it doesn’t have to be so repetitive. Parts I did appreciate were the points about putting less pressure on yourself to get everything in your checklist done in a day/week/month. I think the checklists are very comprehensive. I also agree with other reviewers’ points. This book says you can keep your home clean in under 10 min. We have a 2-bedroom space, but it is not possible for me to do the daily tasks plus the monthly tasks in this book in under 10 minutes. Washing dishes is about 10 min more or less. And folding one load of laundry and putting it away takes at least 15 min, sometimes half an hour. I get the main concepts of this book, and I appreciated. I just think it could have been organized better and with less repetition.

Best cleaning book yet.

Author offers practical and doable program to keep home clean and organized. I've got my own collection of cleaning and decluttering books but this one is the best! I also like that she shares her recipes for natural cleaning products.

Great tips and encouragement

Just get started, since “a journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step “ as a Chinese proverb says. There are 7 and 28 days exercises to help you build a habit since it takes 21 days to build a new habit per literature. It will take more than 10 minutes a day initially and possibly 10 minutes after you have done it a LONG time.
