Five Star Reviews: | 70% Good quality for the price July 28, 2017 As described. Please note that it has 10 clear page protectors with 2 pieces of paper in each, totaling 20 pages. That can be confusing. Otherwise, good quality for the price. the packaging was good & it was honestly bigger than I thought it ... January 15, 2017 It arrived on time, it was shipped with other items I ordered, the packaging was good & it was honestly bigger than I thought it would be. It's more like the size of a photo album than a scrapbook, so keep that in mind. However, I love it! I ordered this one because of the page protectors & the binding. It looks exactly as advertised and it's working perfectly for the scrapbook I wanted to make for my sisters birthday. I love it! Perfect July 4, 2013 This is exactly what I wanted. My kids do a lot with their music and in school. I wanted something to keep their certificates, programs, announcements & pics. This is exactly what I was looking for. I bought one in black and one in purple. The covers are very nice, the pages are sturdy with a white background sheet, and there are extra page inserts avlb for purchase when I need them. This is something they can keep forever. | 66% Great cover May 2, 2017 Bigger than I expected and was a great way to display beach photos from Mexican cruise! She loved it! March 22, 2017 Got this for a friend moving to a new state. Filled it with memories of our group of friends. She loved it! fast and perfect January 22, 2017 beautiful album was delivered on time and made a beautiful scrapbook project, i will no doubt be ordering in the future Perfect for the hubby and I! November 26, 2016 This is a cute little post bound scrapbook. You can insert two of your own photos into the cover. I'm going to use a photo of when my husband and I started dating in the first slot, and whatever the last page of the book is in the second. That way, I can tell just by looking what years this book spans! Beautiful October 15, 2015 This is a beautiful scrapbook. You can unscrew the binding to add more pages. The front photo frame has a nice clear plastic piece to protect your photo. Buy it! - you'll love it! April 16, 2015 Ordered this album for a cruise I will be going on and I absolutely love it! Its got beautiful colors and is very different from most the scrapbooking albums in the stores. It's very charming! | 79% Liked them. August 18, 2017 Made scrap books for myself and siblings after Mom passed with old picks of both parents and were well received by all. able to add or subtract pages depending your desire. Really good size, too August 17, 2017 So so so cute! Really good size, too. It's one foot by one foot - I can fit several pictures on each page. Very sturdy and thick covers keep it protected. Amazing price for a really good product. I've never scrapbooked before and this was one of the cheapest ones I found that was actually still super adorable. I haven't tried to add more pages - some people's reviews say it's hard to do, but my boyfriend looked at it and said it should be pretty easy with the help of a little screwdriver maybe. Fingers crossed! Beautiful. Great size May 21, 2017 Beautiful. Great size. Scrapbooking my grandparents in this one. They had tons of trees in their backyard. I have lots of birds in mine. The cover says it all :) Great beautiful scrapbook May 7, 2017 Great item, beautiful, bride and groom loved it, used for photo booth business and it was a total hit, thanks Beautiful well made scrapbook March 12, 2017 My father-in-law was a photographer in WWII. He passed in February and I got this scrapbook to organize his photographs. Is very well made and is perfect. I love it. Nice and durable December 13, 2014 The book was very durable, and was exactly what I was expecting! It held up very nicely, and held everything I needed it to. | 49% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Four Star Reviews: | 17% Great album November 28, 2015 Comes with 10 sheets already (plain white) that are in plastic sleeves/paper protector. You are able to add more sheets, however, you need a screw to undo the screws on the "hole punched" bar that keeps the sheets in. It is for 12 by 12 scrapbook paper so the album is a little big but most scrapbooking albums are this size. The writing design is shiny as pictured MORE ROOM April 26, 2015 Just perfect for bigger items than pics. I have many booklets of our trip to Key West. Photos won't stick to the back of the pages. Beautiful but... April 17, 2014 This scrapbook is beautiful, I LOVE the feel of it & the bungee strap to hold it closed is a plus. My only issue is the color looks nothing like the color in the picture! I ordered the purple scrapbook but I received one that looks more pink than purple. I would've given this five stars but the color is a disappointment for me. If I wanted a pink scrapbook then I would've ordered one! Great but not expandable as it says.... November 20, 2013 My scrapbook arrived two days after purchase which was incredibly important to me. The gloss, color, and pages are very nice. For being so cheap, it was nice to know that it was fairly sturdy. The only reason I gave the product four stars instead of five is the fact that it says it's expandable. As far as I can tell, it is not. I cannot figure out how to add more pages. It does not come with instructions on how to open the centerfold and I've done quite a bit of digging around the web to try and figure it out. As far as I'm concerned, it is not expandable or they need to send me some instructions because I cannot figure it out. Other than that, it is a great piece for the price. great for scrapbooking March 4, 2013 This is just as pictured and it worked well for my scrapbooking needs. Only complaint is it says it's expandable but I haven't figured out how to add more pages if you even can. Oh well it's 10 pages double sided for a total of 20 pages. For the price it's great. | 22% Cheap but functional. August 19, 2017 For the price, you can't really complain. When I received mine the plastic cover protector was a bit wonky (wrinkled and folded on the inside) and the pocket for inserting one of the collage frames was coming loose. But for the price it is quite fixable and not a big deal. The inserts are a bit on the cheap side (wrinkly and thinner than other brands) so I just bought Pioneer brand inserts and swapped out.The cover is lightweight but it does the job. Pretty scrapbook December 14, 2015 You will need to buy additional pages as this only comes with 10. Otherwise a nice looking scrapbook. Nice scrapbook, only 10 pages January 18, 2013 It is a nice, simple scrapbook with a pretty cover. It comes with 20 white pieces of paper, but only 10 page slots. So you get 10 two-sided pages. Not a huge problem, since more page covers can easily be bought, but if you need more than 10 pages be prepared to buy the extras. Only 10 pages January 4, 2013 The book itself is very pretty, but its only ten pages. You can always add more, but the binding consists of the little metal screws that are a pain in the buttocks to deal with. There are other books that have easier binding, but all in all it's still a good buy and I'm happy with it. Great scrapbook July 27, 2012 The scrapbook is wonderful. The print on the it is beautiful, and the white paper in the top load pages are easy to pull out and slide back in even with all the scrapbooking decor and photos glued on. The only negative drawback is the plastic protector on the scrapbook is pretty cheap, causing it to rip easily. Other than that, this item is a great buy. scrapbooking angel February 4, 2012 Just recieved this book in the mail. High quality. The only thing is there is only 12 sheets I thought there would be at least 25. Be prepared to order refills right away. | 14% Purchased this for my wife and so far she loves ... January 23, 2017 Purchased this for my wife and so far she loves it but It said you can add pages to it and we haven't figured out how to do it yet if we figure that out I'll change this to a 5 star Really like the book March 15, 2016 Really like the book. Only issue is when refilling with more pages the back paper holder ripped. Had to repair it. Nice cover overall March 5, 2016 Nice cover overall. I gave it 4 stars because it could have been a little more sturdy & the plastic sheets could've been thicker. I like that I was able to put in pictures in the cover slots As expected. July 2, 2015 This is an inexpensive scrapbook. I knew this when I purchased it. You basically get what you paid for. It is attractive but the texture feels cheap. If you are expecting an average product, this will work fine. | 12% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Three Star Reviews: | 7% Good for the Price... April 21, 2016 For the price, I can't complain too much. These albums are very cute. I had no condition issues with the pages or album upon receipt. However, they are super hard to get apart and put back together to add pages. And I wish they came with a plastic cover like some of other brands do. I'm a little unsure how well these will hold up over time with no cover. Disappointed. October 26, 2015 When the scrapbook arrived, part of the binding was ripped... I was VERY disappointed. The scrapbook itself seems alright. like there were way too many September 8, 2015 I had an extremely hard time getting the screws out of the book to add more pages. It took 2 people and 2 screw drivers to get them out. Once we got the additional pages in the book, the pages just seemed too bunchy in there, like there were way too many, but I only added 5. Nothing special but good for the price July 30, 2014 The outside is a bit tacky in person and too glossy. If it were more matte, I think it would be extra stylish. I didn't like how the plastic page sheets inside were crumpled, which in turn made the paper in them look wavy. I'd have to purchase sheets separately to replace it. I probably won't purchase again but it works for now. One Screw Fastener Defective May 7, 2014 The bottom screw peg would not come apart. I had to run to a crafting store to get a new set of pegs and replace after I used pliers to finally release the third peg, The thread were not right, Got it all together and it looks ok but instructions of some sort might be nice especially for the other reviewer who wasn't sure it could have extra pages added. | 7% Paper-like cover, feels cheap. Was too late to ... December 21, 2016 Paper-like cover, feels cheap. Was too late to return it and was a gift so I wrapped it but I was not proud to give it. It's ok February 11, 2016 It's pretty, but the quality is not the best. The plastic cover is very thin and I know it's not going to hold up as well as my others, but you get what you pay for. I'll probably be trading this out soon. I love the album but I needed a traditional album May 30, 2015 I love the album but I needed a traditional album, not a top loader. If I can find a way to open it and add my own pages, I will be a happy camper. Great, with the exception of the paper inserts. November 8, 2014 The album is beautiful - love the design of the cover, and the cover is sturdy. There is a plastic protector which works well to protect the album. I liked everything about it, but unfortunately had to give 3 stars because all the insert pages were crinkled in some way. Because my project had a deadline, I didn't have time to send the album back for exchange. I was able to cover over the wrinkles in the paper with the usual scrapbook items, but it was a disappointment especially since the album itself is great. Please note that other reviews did not mention this problem, so maybe this was a one time issue. One other small item is that the posts are difficult to work with. only 10 pages not 20. November 18, 2013 I was mislead that it says there are 20 pages.... most books say there are 10 pages and people assume that means front and back. When they listed it had 20 pages I was thinking 20 front and back. No sadly it was just the wording they used. The book has 10 pages front and back like most others. It is very pretty though and I like the book itself. Not unhappy with the purchase. | 5% Nice and Large December 30, 2016 Not bad for the price, it appears as it looks on screen. its rather large to other scrap books. Look forward to putting in new memories. There are no instructions explaining how and I've tried but stopped because I'm afraid I will break it as it isn't very sturdy. April 6, 2016 This is a cute scrapbook but it isn't expandable as advertised. There are no instructions explaining how and I've tried but stopped because I'm afraid I will break it as it isn't very sturdy. I am unable to put more inserts in this scrapbook ... July 28, 2015 I am unable to put more inserts in this scrapbook. I bought the inserts, but am, so far, unable to use them. | 12% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
Two Star Reviews: | 4% Damaged! July 9, 2017 We really hoping this wouldn't be my experience, but my album came damned too!The disassembly and assembly of the book is difficult if you are looking to add more pages.The spine of the album is terribly cheap! It's merely a detached piece of paper.Very disappointing, but still functional. I didn't quite like the page count June 8, 2016 I didn't quite like the page count. Says there are 20 pages, but for me... it felt like 10 pages. It only said it was 20 pages because they count the front and back of each sheet as a page. A bit disappointed, but I love the product itself. Not what I wanted July 25, 2014 Returned it. Had to hold that book at different angles to see the words. I thought they would be more visible. Liked the color. A present! May 4, 2014 My hubby bought this for Valentines Day! Super cute, but made kinda cheap! Front cover even tore a little when I carried it to a friends house! He paid too much...kinda cheesy make.. Skip this one | 2% Page holes ripped and unusable. August 31, 2016 Album cover nice however holes in pages were ripped and unusable... Quite disappointed. February 2, 2016 The cover had much more of an olive green look than shown in the picture. Quite disappointed. The album was nice but the center square April 19, 2015 The album was nice but the center square, where you add a photo, was placed crooked, could not fix it. | 1% | 11% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
One Star Reviews: | 2% Not what I wanted. I wanted a scrap. ... June 8, 2015 Not what I wanted. I wanted a scrap. Book with paper leaf to clue on my pictures and cute emblems. This one has plastic photo pockets to hold photos. not good if you want to add pages November 10, 2014 This item looked so nice was looking forward to starting my scapbooking, however when I took off the little screws to add the extra sheets I had bought, the screws wouldnt hold the extra pages, and this was while the pages were still empty, I imagine had the pages been full it would hv been even more impossible to close, sent both items back and got a refund. Scrapbook March 10, 2014 The scrapbook is poorly made. I bought three books and when I opened them and all the plastic pages on two of them tore right out.Didn't open them until after the return date and now I am stuck with garbage. Got This With The Clear Pockets Wrinkled Up~~~ February 7, 2013 I was really sadden about this... all the clear pages was wrinkled up & it looked good on the outside but UGLY in the inside...I hope they would send me unwrinkled pages... or I will NEVER buy these again.... I LOVE the Black Scrapbook I got.. but this was was BAD!!!!!!!!!!!! | 3% Screws were stripped and couldn't add pages July 17, 2017 It looked nice but the screws were stripped and I couldn't get them out to add pages. | 1% what a cheap piece of crap. I'm not even going to bother trying to ... April 9, 2017 Tried forever to unscrew this scrapbook to add more pages and could NOT get the screws to come apart, ending up accidentally tearing the book trying to get the screws out, what a cheap piece of crap. I'm not even going to bother trying to order another scrapbook online I'd rather go to a store to check the quality myself. An absolute WASTE of money, save yourself the frustration and go somewhere else. Cute but not well made. October 2, 2015 Super cute cover but the binding cover piece was made out of a paper material and broke as soon as I attempted to add pages and spacers. Great if you only want the number of pages it comes with. | 16% There are no reviews yet | 0% There are no reviews yet |
