critical reviews
"[T]heir advice is practical and relies on tools you're likely to have around the house....As the economy limps along and the unemployment figures shoot up daily, a growing number of previously well-off Americans may not have the luxury of making these types of calculations anymore. Hiring a service worker may simply not be in the budget. The boom times of the '90s may have offered homeowners a chance to master the ego-building art of planking a deck, but the recession of '03 may force us to learn the humbling tedium of toilet repair, in which case Dare to Repair couldn't be timelier." - Gardner Historical Society Staff (Washington Monthly, 5/1/03)
