Blurb.com Reviews 

I ordered a copy of my book for my cousin which was delivered to his address well packed and in excellent condition. The book was delivered in one week from placing the order.

Great little book. So easy to put together. That is one of the really great things. The paper and presentation is high.
I would really like to make another of these.

Fast service and this book looks great in print xx

I always use MS word to compile my books and Adobe Professional to carry out 'preflight' before uploading the document to Blurb. The whole process has been streamlined during the decade I have been using Blurb and with my internet connection having been upgraded. Hence, getting a book uploaded and printed has become a pure joy after the long hours of preparation.
Having b/w text books printed and delivered back to me within 5 days (as ihave on a couple of occasions) is amazing.
However the cost of freight is a real issue when time is not so important. I would really appreciate an alternative, slower transport option. Generally, the 'trade' copies of most of my books (around 200 pages 6"x9") means fast delivery effectively doubles the price.
This sits against delivery from London of similar size/weight books from The Book Depository at about A$5.00

When I received my order the book had my cover but someone else's contents!
It was remedied quite quickly but I did not receive an offer of a good discount off my next book, in spite of my request.

Excellent service.

My book’s illustrator recommended I use Blurb to self-publish our book. I found the Blurb site easy to navigate and the final cost very reasonable compared to other sites I have used. The turnaround was surprisingly prompt.The finished product is all I hoped for; my book looks and feels professional, text is clear and colours are bright. My experience with Blurb has been positive and I will use Blurb for subsequent books. I will be happy to recommend Blurb to other writers seeking to self-publish their books.

What a beautiful book! (Layflat, premium lustre) Love the quality. It took a while for it to arrive, but it was worth the wait.

A good book ruined by appalling printing of the illustrations. I have purchased through Blurb before but this experience means I really do not want to purchase a Blurb product again.

My books look fantastic. Production and delivery was faster than expected!! I can't fault them. Blurbtacular. Wowowowowow.

Blurb has been an easy website to use from creating my books/magazines, to printing/ordering them and now to even distributing them through their Online Book Store. On top of all that, any issues I have ever had were quickly resolved and organised for me. This is why I keep using Blurb.com and why I now use them as my Magazine distribution store.

The failed delivery( 35 days) of five large photo albums prompted BLURB to
generously re-issue the editions to an alternative address to which they have subsequently been delivered to me in New Zealand.
I am awaiting a more recently uploaded album destined to reach me October 12th. Two new books are being prepared for future publication.

The orders came promptly and were of a decent standard.

One of the pictures was much darker than the provided image; however, and the wrapping of the front cover varied in placement from book to book.

Some books were excellent, but the main issue I had with the ordr is that quality isn't guaranteed from book to book.

Simple process to order and delivery was swifter than expected.

I loved my magazine from Blurb. It is very professional in quality. The pictures look vibrant and crisp. I hope to use Blurb for the book I am writing!

I have recently placed a number of orders for my own books with many people who tried to buy them being unable to find their way around the website. Having had practice, I now find that reasonably straightforward but the process to "Set up your book for sale" and ensuring a pdf is available is very unclear and unsatisfactory. Similarly poorly handled is the choosing of paper, colour of fly sheets and so forth.
The Bookwright programme is quite convenient except when you add pages early in the book and despite having all the pages locked, the later pages loose their settings and move the text and pics so that they fall into the overflow area. so you then have to readjust them all which is a severe pain. The printing reproduction is good and time taken to print very efficient. Early on we had some pages fall out but that was readily replaced.

I have had my first book printed with Blurb, they have been fantastic the whole way through and it takes no time as all from ordering a proof to it arriving at my door. Faultless

I have used Blurb Booksmart to make all of my books. It's easy to use, the choice of various elements is good eg type of paper size of book etc. The quality of the product is excellent. The time between placing and receiving the book is so quick. I can highly recommend this product.

I do love my book. I’m very happy with the quality and service. My only disappointment is that the shipping is very expensive for one book for anyone purchasing it. $11.99 for a thin book that can be sent in a document envelope is extreme!
