- EXCELLENT BOOK but OUTDATED...
Excellent and INDISPENSABLE tool.However,..I already own this bookcopyright 1996 (nothing newer SINCE?) and was hoping since it is 13 years old already and when I saw the "NEW" cover with the "NEW" printing date of June 2009 (yet-to-be-printed??) I was hoping to get a new and revised version.Well, the joke was on me when I opened it only to see an EXACT copy of the OLD book (& same OLD cover) that I've already owned for 13 years, I was quite disappointed you might say.But, I would also like ...

- a bit outdated
when i bough this book i thought it would be a "do-it-yourself" manual, rather than a "fix-it-yourself".
But shame on me, i did not pay enough attention to the title!
Still useful, but most of the appliances presented in there are from the 70's/80's, and while some people have a pretty retro spirit, some others buy the new stuff out there, which is too modern for this book
Rating: - Confused about the reviews on this book.
I'm extremely confused about these reviews.First, the book is listed as being published in June 11, 2009, which is in the future.Most of these reviews are of an *earlier* version of the book.Second, *none* of the reviews mention how this book is different from the "New Complete Do-It-Yourself Manual which was published in 1991.What is the difference between "Fixing it Yourself" (the *new* book) and "Doing it Yourself" (the *old* book)?Quite a bit has happened in the past 18 years, so is this ...

Rating: - Best New Homeowner Helper
When I was a "new" homeowner, I had no helper to diagnose problems, or see them before they became problems, other than my Dad.Through the years, Dad's guidance and help and THIS BOOK, an earlier version thereof, were my bible for a new homeowner.It helped me with plumbing problems, electrical (minor ones, that is) problems, mechanical problems, fix a bike, etc.
When my daughter and husband became new homeowners, I gave her husband a copy of this book for his birthday.I know they will ... Read More
Rating: - Must Have
This book is a "must have" for any homeowner even if you do not consider yourself handy. It covers nearly any issue that may arise and will even let you know the repair difficulty level before you begin. I received the first edition from my wife in 1980 and this edition upon release. This particular purchase was for my daughter and future son-in-law. Of all the do-it-yourself manuals, I rate this one the best. Its a great gift for friends and family.
