Overview
Before the possibility of using smart phones to take pictures with, a lot of people spent a fortune on buying cameras,developing film and buying photo albums to store them in. Now we are able to process them on our own computers with the right photo paper and printers. Some do this quite a bit while others don’t. The Photo Chest is a perfect way of storing them when you do make hard copies.
The Claim
The promoters feel that a lot of photos don’t even make it to a photo album or a frame, but end up in shoe boxes instead. They often end up getting damaged. If you have kept a computer copy then no problem, but if you have deleted them then they are gone forever. The company says that by storing your photos in Photo Chest they are protected from wear and tear, and potential damage from the sun as well as chemicals and oxidation.
The Hype
The hype really all revolves around have an easy storage solution and easy access to your photos. This would make a great gift for the older family members that aren’t computer savvy, and don’t get to enjoy photographs electronically.
The Cost
You can expect to pay $19.99 plus $7.99 shipping and delivery fee for the Photo Bucket. If you want to add another $7.99 to your order then you will get a second one free.
The Commitment
You really have to be an enthusiast about photo collections to make use of this product. If you are then it really is a great way to store them. It is a great carrying case if you want to them somewhere to show them off. Owning the Photo Chest might encourage you to start making prints of your photos.
Evaluation
We came across an almost identical product on Amazon called Iris Photo and Craft Storage Organizer. To date it has had 50 reviews giving it a 4.9 star rating. This version is selling for a lot more though at $48.96. There is also another version for large photos which seems to be really popular too. So it would seem that there is quite a need for this type of product and storing hard copies of photos is still pretty popular.
We’re going to give the product a Thumbs Up rating based on its popularity for meeting a specific need. We didn’t come across any complaints about the product in itself.
Our Recommendation
If you are looking for a good solution for storing your photos then Photo Chest seems to be a really good idea. It has sixteen compartments that fit within the case. Each compartment will hold about 100 photos. This means you have a great opportunity for organizing your photos as well as storing them. This would make a great gift. Older people often don’t get the family pictures that they would like to have anymore because they are stored on computers. Now you could print off copies for them and give them an easy way to store and access them. If you still like to store your photos electronically you can easily do so on your own computer, or on a USB stick or as an alternative you might be interested in Photobucket.
