SeaKoast review for Pixels ‑ Print On Demand
Sept. 30, 2022
I have been using the Pixels app since 2018 and definitely recommend this app. Pixels prints with outstanding quality and fast shipping times. Our Shopify store currently offers prints, home décor, and accessories with the Pixels app. Here is a little background as to why we chose Pixels as our primary POD company to work with. I am a 2nd generation graphic artist. We started a family business in 1992, specializing in high end, high volume screen printing on apparel. 100% of our work was in-house from new artwork generation, to separating the print colors, printing film positives, stretching screens, exposing and reclaiming screens, etc. Our press ran 8 color simulated process designs at 70 dozen shirts per hour with a 0.01% misprint ratio. Typical across the industry was 30 doz/hr with a 2% misprint ratio. Our ‘down time’ between jobs was 16 minutes to clear one set of screens, set up the next job and have a perfectly printed shirt in hand. The industry average was about an hour. It was like a Formula One racing pit stop. I was Production Manager and Quality Control Officer and created our Standard Operating Procedures. In 1998 we opened a retail store in a very busy tourist/resort town. All of our retail products were printed in our production shop. In 2003 we added dye sublimation to our product line. In 2008 we added a 44”, 12 color printer to print large format prints for our store. Matting and framing was also a part of the process. Our first e-commerce store began in 2003, offering both print on demand items and pre-printed items. When considering POD apps for our Shopify Store, I ordered samples and was impressed with the quality of the products from Pixels and decided to use Pixels and am fully committed. I have not been disappointed. As a bonus, each month I receive sales from Fine Art America which is something that no other app can offer. The added sales channel can be very profitable. I am very happy to have chosen Pixels as my primary POD app on Shopify!
