Review: Photobox

Photobox are one of the companies you will usually hear me singing about regardless of whether I am doing a review or not.

An offer to review a photo calendar was a great chance for me to indulge my photo habit. Turns out I couldn't contain myself to just one photo product and I ended up treating myself to a canvas too.

I ordered a family calendar. Here are a few of my favourite calendar pages;

Things I loved;

• Photos are easy to upload. 
• Pages are easy to lay out with plenty of design options. 
• Individual dates can be personalised with photographs. 
• There is an option to upgrade and have the pages laminated.
• You can order spiral bound to hang on the wall or loose leafed to stick to the fridge.
• The loose leaded version comes with fridge magnets.
• The laminated version comes with a wipe off pen.
• The traffic light coloured faces which indicate the quality of the image you are using.
• Print quality and finish are always flawless and exceptional

Things I Didn't Love; 

• The picture boxes are very narrow it was difficult finding images which worked well.
• The laminated loose leaded version should have come with magnets and a wipe off pen. Both of these were missing from my order. Despite 2 phone calls, emails, some tweets with customer service and 5 weeks since my order I am still awaiting my magnets and I have now given up. 
• I understand that some orders are occasionally wrong, however the customer service needs to deal with this more efficiently.

Overall I love my finished product even if I am left a little disappointed in the missing accessories and aftercare.

There is still time to order photo gifts for Christmas delivery (order by 17th December). They make great gifts for grandparents.
