I am honestly shocked by what I received.
I waited approximately a month and a half for this book to be produced and delivered. It cost around €30, and judging by the photos, I expected a beautiful, substantial baby memory book with a proper thick cover and quality binding — something special that you would enjoy filling in throughout your newborn baby’s first year and then keep for many years as a family keepsake.
The reality could not be more different.
When I first opened the package, I genuinely thought that the small spiral-bound notebook inside was some kind of free gift included with my order. I actually looked for the real book in the package.
Then I realised: this WAS the book I had paid €30 for and waited six weeks to receive.
It is basically a simple wire-bound notebook with very thin paper and a thin cover that reminds me of a cheap calendar. There is no substantial book binding, no thick hardcover and absolutely nothing about its physical quality that gives the impression of a proper keepsake book.
The photos create a completely different impression. From the presentation, I expected an actual book — something beautiful, durable and special enough to document the first year of my child’s life. What arrived looks like something I could buy for €10 in a stationery shop and fill in myself.
I also genuinely do not understand why this required a month and a half of production time. There is no sophisticated binding or construction that could possibly explain such a long wait.
For €30, the quality is simply unacceptable. Had I seen this product in person before purchasing it, I would never have paid this price for it.
This was supposed to be a special memory book for my newborn baby’s first year. Instead, opening the package was an enormous disappointment.
Absolutely not worth the money, definitely not worth waiting six weeks for, and completely different from what I expected based on the product photos.
