Don Aslett doesn't know me, but he has influenced my life perhaps more than anyone. When I first started out in life, I was carefree, happy, and serene. I slept at night. Over the years, I found myself with a lot more things, but a lot less happiness. I tried "looking within", but it was all the stuff "without" that was making me depressed. Then someone gave me a copy of this book and I realized that I didn't need to suffer anymore. Although my home was clean, it was cluttered, as was my schedule, my life, my whole existence. During a big move, with Don Aslett's encouragement, I sold or gave away almost everything except those few precious things that really mattered to me. In my new (all white) house, I brought in only the bare necesseties and only objects that I felt I couldn't live without. My home looks beautiful now - light and airy. I dejunked my schedule and some not-so-good acquaintances and learned to say NO!. Since I had no junk to take care of, I had time to get a couple of degrees, learn to play the piano, and really have fun with my man and our child. I have read every one of Don's books - he has an incredible sense of humor and love for life. Don, you are the saint of orderliness and peacefulness. God bless you - and thanks for giving me my life back. Dr. D.

This book changed my life. Dejunking has become a lifestyle for me and my wife. Don Aslett shows you that alot of stuff we accumulate is junk, but he also teaches that other parts of your life can be cluttered-up as well. His no-nonsense approach to dejunking your *life* needs to be heard by so many people! After reading his book, I began to give every aspect of my life a hard, dejunking look. "Do I really need this *thing*?" Or, "Is this person someone I really want in my life?" Or, "Do I really need to eat this?" This book should be required reading in school so kids have a chance against this consume-happy society. Excellent book!

Thank you Don Aslett for your wonderful book about dejunking. I stored a van load of boxes and furniture for 5 years at a cost of nearly $200 a month while we lived in Texas. We came back with yet another van full and crammed it and the storage into our house. Working with your book for 6 months, I have begun to see a light out from underneathe the clutter. I have found things I needed and shared or given away 30% of the rest. It is a good start. I enjoy the bonus sections on personal and emotional clutter. The book is uplifting with its touch of humor about the junk we take so seriously. Thank you.

This Book is CLUTTER!
Clutter's Last Stand did not offer me the help I was looking for. It took hundreds of pages of junk to get to the one chapter of solution. Read more

A useful and informative book overall, but ignorant in spots
Don Aslett's book has many useful ideas. It helped me to distinguish between useful items and true clutter. Read more

Worth repeating and recommending
It has been a few years sense I first read Don Aslett's books on de-junking and cleaning house. The funny story behind this is that my very organized husband had brought it home... Read more
