National Geographic® Executive Personalized Canvas Map customer reviews

I had made up my mind to buy this "birthday gift" for a "hard-to-buy-for-friend", before I read the reviews. He said he saw something similar, and was considering buying it for himself. After reading the reviews, I purchased it, with concern, but I thought, "Personalizationmall.com has never disappointed me before". But this time I feel the quality is not as good as it appears to be in the picture. I ordered it with a black "frame" which is just 4 plain pieces of painted strips of wood surrounding the map. The coiling that decorates the picture just inside the frame, is just an imprint on the canvas, rather than an ornamental part of the actual frame. I wonder if just the canvas could be sold at a cheaper price, to be framed by a professional framer. I didn't mind that the United States were not outlined, because significant cities are on the map. But I would prefer if the personalization would be much smaller, and possibly be on a name plate rather, than be imprinted onto the canvas.

I purchased the map for a family member who travels frequently, for business and pleasure. He was very happy with it and was anxious to pin everywhere he has been. Now, I have to buy additional pins!
Great value and quality.

This map is pretty flimsy, does not include hanging instructions, has only limited hardware included, included only two pins to mark your journeys. I love the idea of it, but for the price, it was somewhat disappointing.

I expected a lot and that's what I got. High quality, arrived in perfect condition and my husband was thrilled with this gift.
We travel all over the world and enjoy marking the places we have been. Many times it reminds us of events and we laugh about things that have occurred or something we did. In other words, we enjoy it very much.
I know that it will give us a lot of pleasure. Thank You.

This is gorgeous! The personalization makes this a step above the rest. I ordered the framed world map and am very pleased with the result. Even shipped faster than I expected. Great product!

This item came personalized and within 2 days of order! Very happy with this company. Would order from them again.

I am so glad I chose this map, the quality and texture of the printed canvas is beyond what I expected. The frame (I got black) is sturdy and beautiful. My husband will love it!

I looked around in several places for maps and thought this map looked the best with a nice old world feel to it. I was not disappointed when the map arrived. I think it looks great! The personalizing and shipping was really quick too.
