Pioneer 8 Inch by 8 Inch Postbound Fabric Frame Cover Memory Book, Cobalt Blue

Perfect for 8.5x11 borderless photos using HP Premium Plus photo paper. For me, it was easier to just take album apart and then add the photos to the top loading page protectors. Even works well if the photos are laminated. If using laminated photos, ensure the lamination is trimmed to almost the very edges of the photos or else they will not fit. Much easier to insert laminated photos (8.5 x 11) while the album is apart. Note that I have a mixture, so extra extension posts (included with Pioneer RW85 Postbound Top Loading Page Protectors) might be necessary depending on thickness. Also, as a point of reference, the white page insert thickness is much less than that of HP Premium Plus photo paper which is 80 lb.So far I have 50 8.5 x 11 photos in the album and the covers lay nice and flat. I don't see any reason it would not lay flat with more photos provided you have the proper number of extension posts and are not trying to add more of the RW85 page protectors without extending the posts. There is an optimum post size based on how many photos and how many spacers. Best to keep it all snug but not super tight (extension posts too short).The album comes with a thick clear plastic protector which covers the entire outside of the album as well as the top and the bottom covers. This is a high quality album that looks good and is robust enough to handle without the fear of it falling apart. I am very satisfied!

Just as described perfect for what I wanted

Only brand of album I buy for my scrapbooks.

This comes in so many colors but i had to get the pretty lilac. This brand has never steered me wrong and this is a solid quality scrapbook. It's a top fill instead of adhesive which i personally prefer. Also I've never expanded one before but this one made it super easy lol

This is a perfect photo book for my 5 x7 pictures. I have been pitting all my christmas cards in here from the past.Its sturdy, simple and exactly what i have been looking for!

I bought two of these to replace my kids’ baby albums that were damaged. I wish I got these ones in the first place because they are awesome! I love the fact that they are expandable and the plastic protective sleeve is too!

First one came damaged but the replacement came in perfect condition. Just wish it had more pages included.

Nice product for the money.

It is a very nice album but it is not 12 x 12 it is 8 x 8.

very good quality photo books that can expand, we use them for kids year school/sports and activities pictures. Very sturdy and can exand very easily.

Great album. I am using this for my first child's baby book as I want to do his on my own. Glad that I can add extra sheets and do my own thing on the inserts. I bought inserts off of amazon that had beautiful unique patterns and backgrounds only 7 bucks.

great

This is a nice scrapbook, of a more manageable size than the 12" x 12" ones you see so many of - I got it to make a "support book" for my son that he can carry in his school backpack and take out when he's having a rough time and needs to feel better, so the compact size is good. And it seems quite sturdy, and can expand to fit a massive number of pages, which is nice.My only criticisms are that the starting number of pages is quite small, so you'll likely need to order refills at the same time as you get the book, because you'll need them pretty soon, and that I found the way the pages are bound in a little difficult to undo when I needed to add the refills. Maybe just because I'm not very used to it, but it took me a while to sort out that you had to actually use two screwdrivers, one on each side of the bolt, because if you tried to just unscrew one end with the book lying flat, it would just turn and turn and never open. And the two-screwdriver approach can be a bit awkward if you don't have a third hand to hold the book steady. But it's probably one of those things that gets easier with practice...
