[.ca] Home Owners Journal (ISBN 0972559116)

What A Tremendous Find!!!:
Now we can keep all of the details about our home in one easy to use book. It's perfectly organized to make record keeping a breeze. We're in the process of entering all of the data we'll need for future references. We're planning to give Home Owner's Journal to our friends who just moved into a new home in Auburn, California. Special thanks to Confluence Publishers out of Grand Junction, Colorado for providing this book. It's very helpful.

The Home Owner's Journal, 5th Edition:
This book is cheap and flimsy. It's totally devoid of color and there's only a folder flap (for paint samples, receipts, pictures, etc.) on the back cover. Otherwise you're just supposed to "attach" fabric swatches, paint samples, appliance info cards, etc. on the pages within the book. So make sure you always have a stapler or tape when you're using if you want to add anything. And if you want to house all your appliance and household manuals in this book, forget it. It's way too small and they wouldn't even fit. I purchased for a housewarming gift and it's so cheap and un helpful as a resource, that I might not even bother to include in the package. I'm very disappointed. It looked much better on line than in person.

The Best Home Owner's Journal Out There:
I purchased 3 Home Owners Journals from different companies and found this one to be the best. The journal breaks down each room in the house so you can write in the square feet, appliances, color, repairs, etc. There is even a pocket page in the back for reciepts or warranties. I will be giving this as a closing gift for all of my Home Buyers. I even contacted the company and gave a list of sujestions for the next edition.

Santa Cruz Reviewer is Crazy!:
I don't know what the Santa Cruz reviewer is thinking. This is a handy book, and has helped me keep track of many different maintenance and renovation details of my home. The reviewer says he can't store his household manuals in this book. Of course not! What book exists that allows someone to store all such manuals? If you are looking for a method to simply and easily keep track of paint colors, vendor names and numbers, warranty information, etc., I strongly recommend this convenient, affordable journal.
