Customers find the book very informative, answering many questions about lawn care, and one customer notes it covers the how’s and why’s. Moreover, the content is well-suited for both DIY enthusiasts and professionals, and customers find it easy to read and straightforward. However, several customers express disappointment about the lack of visuals, with one mentioning the entire book is in black and white without any photos.
