A great app that syncs well with both Etsy and Shopify, saves a lot of time in my e-commerce workflow.

Love it! Easy to use, great products, great pricing. I started using it a few months ago and it only took about 5-minutes to get set up and to learn how to use. I love it!

Printful's quality of products are fantastic. My customers love the product! I am a professional textile designer with over 30 years of experience printing. Ilove how easy it is for me to design very complex prints and artwork and have the designs turn out fabulous. The customer service team is awesome!

It helped me add the products I was looking to add to my store. I like that I could add tags and collections before pushing to my store.

The integration is seamless - everything is up and running instantly. We had no roadblock in the integration process even though we are noobs at this

I like what they are doing, HOWEVER I would love to see more BLACK and plus size models. That's my only concern here. I would like to see all races. When I was chatting with someone on printful all the could do was recommend me to go elsewhere to find people of color (THAT WAS THE TERMINOLOGY THAT WAS USED. smh. A little disappointed. A big change is need here. Thank you! The revised the post and the original response they gave me.
Thank you for your review, we appreciate hearing from you! We're truly sorry to see that you have encountered these concerns with our services. I wanted to let you know that we do have diverse mockup models on quite a few of our products. You'll be able to see this when browsing products in our product catalog here: https://www.printful.com/custom-products We are also working on adding even more diverse mockups to our catalog in the future. Feel free to reach out to us at [email protected], if you have any additional feedback, as well as any questions or concerns! - Vita

The printful app is very easy to use to create products for my shopify store. You can have a product up and running in no time.

UPDATE 2: Back to 1 star. I am very shocked with how the customer support handles problems. UPDATE, bumping my 1 star to 2: The short of it is Printful might be totally fine for you if you just want to slap some designs on t-shirts and then sell them on Etsy without any regard for quality. But if you want to start a brand and are concerned about quality, this probably isn't for you. The main reasons for this are: poor customer support, a painful mockup editor experience, and a lack of variety in the t-shirt options (not enough heavy cotton a la streetwear, too many soft fitted tees that warp/stretch/don't last). The editor in particular is rough. Using it is a painfully haphazard experience. For example, if you have different versions of the same design (i.e. the same design in white (for dark shirts) and the same design in black (for light shirts)), you have to manually re size and position them separately. The grid is useless for getting the placement identical between these two designs, so you wind up having to move things just a touch, save, check the mock up, then go back and adjust again if needed. Either that or you can settle for your customer clicking between product images and noticing that one design is slightly higher than the other. A small thing to notice, but it makes a world of difference in presenting your brand in a professional way. A good brand should have consistency and avoid simple mistakes like that. And then when it comes to resizing the image, you have to drag the corner of the design while watching the DPI go up or down. Thing is, it doesn't go up or down by 1 DPI at a time. If you have one design perfectly placed and sized at 377 DPI and now you're trying to match another design identically, the DPI will constantly jump between 373 and 378. Again, resulting in a difference that is super tiny, but makes a huge difference in your brand image and consistency across product variants. Other limitations of the editor include not being able to edit the design on the mockup that you will actually use. Let's say you want your mockups to be flat product shots. You'll still have to edit the shirt on a doofy looking model. This again results in too much work between editing and understanding how your final product will look. If you want to get artsy and do a black design on a black shirt, your mockup will be a plain black shirt--no design in sight. Even in other cases (not pure black ink on black fabric), large areas of black in a design will be replaced with the fabric of the shirt. The problem is, that's not how the actual product will look. The black will be printed (that's the beauty of DTG, no limitations on screens like screenprinting), but that means what your customer sees on the mockup vs what they will actually receive after purchase look totally different. I'm hoping for improvements in the future. If I'm so frustrated, why do I continue to use it? Because it does the bare minimum for now. For now is the key there. Right now I'm using Printful as a foundation for building my brand with limited capital, but if my brand grows to a point where I can leave printful OR if competition springs up that can address these issues, I currently don't see many compelling reasons to continue using it.
Thank you for your review, we truly appreciate you bringing your concerns to our attention! We are constantly working on improving our mockup generator and your feedback certainly helps. I'll reach out to you directly for some additional details on these concerns. :) - Vita

I recommend this app. Once you do the set up, it's totally automatic. Give it a try you will be glad you did.

its OK, they need more advance embroidery machines that can do more complex designs, they deserve a chance. The alternatives provided for some options do not really provide an alternative with the limited colour selection.
Thanks for your review! The embroidery designs you provide for your Printful orders would have to follow our embroidery guidelines and very complex designs aren't possible to be done as they may affect the overall quality of the final embroidery on the product. We are upgrading our machinery and technology when possible to keep up with demand, requests, and feedback, so we definitely appreciate your input on this matter. If there's anything else you think could be improved to provide a better experience at Printful, surely let us know by sending a message to [email protected]. Update: Thank you for your updated review! The alternatives tool can be limited in the product selection since not all items have comparable colors or sizes available. We are not only working on adding more products, but also expanding the variant range for the existing products. In case there are any specific colors you'd like to see available for the products you are using, let us know at [email protected] anytime! - Zana

I've used this app in the past with a lot of luck. I'm not certain what's changed since using it again other than now fulfillment is happening out of NC. Two out of my first three customer orders have needed to be redone. One was missing an entire side and had the label printed on the front. The second order was on a tee that the stitching missed the seam entirely and had a hole in the shoulder as it was not stitched together. It's apparent Printful is having QC issues or not doing QC at all. This makes it difficult and rather embarrassing to launch a brand using this company right now.
Thank you for sharing your review! I'm very sorry to hear that your orders have encountered quality problems! We do have QC teams working at all our fulfillment centers and each item is reviewed before it is shipped out. However, human errors do happen and some issues may not be noticed at first and we understand that it can create an unpleasant situation. It is important that our customers report any quality concerns to us, should there be any, so that we can take a closer look into what happened and help resolve the situation, and how the same issue can be avoided in the future. We definitely take your reports and feedback seriously regarding product quality concerns as they help us recognize problem areas and improve the quality of the fulfillment process. I see you have submitted a problem report for your orders and we’ll make sure to follow-up shortly. - Zana

Great app, easy to use website and what I've seen so far, quality t-shirts and printing. Can be a bit annoying having to ignore products that they don't print on, but that's nothing major!
Thank you for your review, we truly appreciate hearing from you! I wanted to let you know that we've added a new feature that would allow you to ignore all "not synced" products with just one click! The button that allows doing this is visible only on the "Not synced" tab in your Printful Dashboard > Stores > Sync. Feel free to reach out to us directly, by sending an email to [email protected], if you have any questions or concerns! - Vita

Printful offer multiple product and sample options. I use Printful for my activewear Range. Customisation for products is easy and layout options are great. There are various resources and webinars available that are extremely helpful.
