Fabric Frame Cover Photo Album 200 Pockets Hold 4x6 Photos, Deep Black

A couple weeks before college, my mom suggested I get a photo album to store all my high school memories in. I decided to search on Amazon, since I was already subscribed to Amazon Prime and knew shipping would be quick. While I was browsing down the list, I was on the lookout for one in specific that held numerous pictures because I ordered over a hundred online. Not only did this one have a good number of pockets, it had the color I was looking for; a rustic yellow that would look good with my color scheme. In this review, I’m going to keep it real and talk about the convenience, quality and even the flaws of this album.The first thing I do when buying anything online is filter the price range from lowest to highest because why waste more money on something just as good for cheaper. I soon noticed that most of them ranged from ten to thirty dollars depending on the size and model, which isn’t that bad. Since I was looking for a 200-pocket album, instead of a 100 pocket one, I knew the price was going to be a bit more expensive. When it came to size, I wanted one resembling the ones I owned at home, around 9.5 inches in width and 9.2 in height. This was just about the same size and knew it would fit in well with the others I had. However, they also offer a variety of different colors, sizes, and models of photo albums based on your preference.When the package arrived, I was surprised about how good the quality was. When buying a knockoff or something cheap, you can’t always have high expectations on the item or most likely you’ll be disappointed. The fabric cover was something that really stood out to me and it came with a clear plastic sleeve to keep the fabric looking nice and clean. I like that there is space available to write notes next to each picture; I wrote the dates of when each picture was taken. I honestly think that helps make the album a little more personal. A typically issue that cheap photo albums have are the sturdiness of the pages; this one has thick pages and I didn’t have that issue at all.However, there was a light smell of chemicals when first opening the package, nothing too strong. You should be careful when inserting the pictures because the plastic is very fragile and can easily tear. But once they’re in, they look really nice and well put together. When shopping, keep in mind that this album is more convenient for landscape photos instead of portrait photos. Most of my pictures were landscape so that wasn’t really an issue for me, but it might be for you. Although it has a couple flaws, I would say for the price, this photo album is a bargain you wouldn’t want to miss out on.Because of my subscription of Amazon Prime, I received the photo album four days after I ordered it. The return policy for amazon is considerate and gives you a month to return an item if you are unsatisfied with it. The exterior of the photo album looks very high quality and fits well anywhere around the house. This could also make a great gift for your friends and family. Overall, the photo album was worth the cost, and I will definitely be buying from them again in the future. If you’re looking for a good quality album for a reasonable price, what are you waiting for? Add it to your cart already!

I highly recommend this product. It holds 200 photos and I love that you can write notes next to the pictures. The quality is outstanding and the best feature is the windows are made of clear plastic so it doesn’t dull the quality of your photo like some of the other albums. It’s also easy to put photos in and out of the plastic sleeves! Beautiful photo album!

Great for pictures or even a cook book. Made well, great color. It's not bulky or heavy

I really enjoy this photo album. I used to scrapbook and honestly it is just so much easier to be able to print out pictures and just throw them into a photo album that requires basically no additional work. I love that there is a little note section near the middle of the pages so that if you have a little memory or quote that goes with each picture, you can write that down. I think that helps make the album a little more personal. In one of my photo albums, I taped in some little paper items that I collected during the trip (such as a ticket stub from a Broadway show, a ticket from going up the Eiffel tower, etc).The outside of this photo album is a nice fabric (it looks a little textured and nice) which gives the photo album a good quality feel.The one thing I don't love about this photo album is the idea that you can put your pictures vertically if need be. Honestly, that is not true. The pages look really weird when you put a photo in horizontally. There is a very obvious space on the outer edges of the page and you can see the weird "insert photo here" pattern behind the vertical pictures. I wish that the photo album only "allowed" photos to be put in horizontally and that there wasn't a weird pattern behind the clear pockets. That being said, when two photos are put in each page horizontally, you cannot really see the weird background and I am mostly happy with the look of the page.Album Color: I like the purple. It is a deep purple but would go very nicely in a room with a neutral colored room. Mine is on my bookshelf.

These are very nice photo albums. I initially ordered two and really liked them so I ordered two more. They are easy to put photos in and remove. The fabric is nice quality and feels nice. They have a plastic cover over the book that can be removed if desired but offers some protection for the album. They hold a lot of photos and have a memo section for each photo. The only improvement that could be made is with the writing at the bottom of each page that says “slip in pocket” and “bi-directional is a registered trademark of Pioneer Photo Albums, Inc.” So that it’s not visible after the photos are placed.

Photo album is functional, affordable, and easy to insert photos. You do have to be careful with the photo inserts as the plastic will come off if you are too aggressive with photos. I have been buying this brand for years and will continue to.
