Side by Side Comparison of: MBI vs MBI by MCS Industries

Bigger than I expected and was a great way to display beach photos from Mexican cruise!

Got this for a friend moving to a new state. Filled it with memories of our group of friends. She loved it!

beautiful album was delivered on time and made a beautiful scrapbook project, i will no doubt be ordering in the future

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!

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.

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!

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.

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. 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 item, beautiful, bride and groom loved it, used for photo booth business and it was a total hit, thanks

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.

The book was very durable, and was exactly what I was expecting! It held up very nicely, and held everything I needed it to.

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.

You will need to buy additional pages as this only comes with 10. Otherwise a nice looking scrapbook.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Great, but kind of difficult to open in order to add more pages.

A great gift item for family

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. Only issue is when refilling with more pages the back paper holder ripped. Had to repair it.

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

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.

cute

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 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, not a top loader. If I can find a way to open it and add my own pages, I will be a happy camper.

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.

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.

This is one of those post bound books. I have trouble adding pages.

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.

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.

The pages inside are white... and it doesn't have any stickers.

Supposed to come with 10 pages, only came with 9 pages

I am unable to put more inserts in this scrapbook. I bought the inserts, but am, so far, unable to use them.

Album cover nice however holes in pages were ripped and unusable...

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, where you add a photo, was placed crooked, could not fix it.

Needs to be bigger already to be easy no need to go buy the store at all

It looked nice but the screws were stripped and I couldn't get them out to add pages.

not worth the money

Cheap

idk

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.

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.
