Has anyone ever bought anything from Cafe Press? I would like to but I wonder if their stuff looks cheaply made, like an old flea market made "image-ironed-on" shirt or bag. Any suggestions?

I actually started a store for my mom, who's an author, on Cafe Press... their items are actually very well made! I bought a sweatshirt hoodie from there, too, and it looks just as good as anything you'd get in a department store :)
HTH!

I've bought several things from Cafe Press. Some were well made, some were not.

I've thought about buying some items from that site, I like a lot of their tees and such but it's seems overpriced to me.

Personally, I prefer zazzle.com. I really didn't like the products I made/purchased at cafe press.

i have bought several sweatshirts, a hoodie, 2 poloshirts, several mugs, 2 aprons, and a magnet and have been very pleased with everything. the designs haven't faded with repeated washing,shirts don't shrink in the dryer, and they are reasonably priced, for the most part. i did think the mugs were kind of expensive but they're adorable.

I buy T-Shirts from them all the time. They are made by Hanes (at least the ones I've been buying) are of thick material and well-made. Love their company and go online to see what they have all the time. I'm currently on chemotherapy and found a Tee that I bought from them recently that says "Chemo--it's what's for dinner". The staff in my oncologists office love it!

Bought totes for my kids from there and they are well made, no problems.
Thanks everyone for your replies. Much appreciated!
