Printful: Print on Demand

If you are looking to build your brand with an apparel line then PrintFul is the way to go. I have tried Printify which have a few more options however there is no consistency with them. PrintFul is a little pricer but I never question the quality of print, material or care from these guys. PrintFul does everything in house and has put a lot of money into their equipment (1.5 million in 2017 and the exclusively use Kornit printers which are the industries leading printers to date.) to ensure quality everytime and that’s why your margins are going to be a little lower. However I choose quality before quantity and these guys always deliver.

Shopify rocks i tell u no lies never have never will they are very helpful with all your shopping needs

The easiest app that I have used. Couldn't have imagined that it would be as simple as it is to sell merchandise to our followers.

Everything you imagine is there. Easy to use, lots of choices. Synchronization is great with Shopify. All recommendations for choosing the first choice.

Fast production and shipping! My 1 complaint is that there joggers run small. The XL is more like a large. I also wish they had tapered joggers. my customers really want that style

I used this app to help me while learning how to be a first time mother. As someone who does all of my orders by hand, it really helps to have help that looks soooooo good! The app is great! I just wish Shopify's shipping times were quicker.

It's everything I need and want!
Easy connection between Shopify and Printful. I wish some products had a shorter production time but it is still within a reasonable timeframe.

Great concept, poor execution. If you're a brand that plans on getting premium products with this service you will be disappointed. There are a number of serious issues with using Printful. I tested this for my business and determined the quality was simply not there.

1. The production, fulfillment and shipping times are way too long. Once the order is place, 3-7 days for picking and production and another 3-5 for shipping. In a world of amazon prime, customer expectation doesn't leave much room for a 10-12 day wait period for a tee.
2. What they don't mention is the DTG inks are plastisol. Common in low-end or novelty tee printing but if you're planning on selling a branded $22-$28 tee Printful is going to under deliver. Plastisol is a PVC-based ink so after it's done the shirt feels like there's a sticker on it and no actually printed into the fabric. It's also non-breathable so if you're wearing it in the sun...good luck.
3. My test shirts had blemishes in the art and a few of them weren't even centered on the shirt. It looked rushed.
4. The inks weren't even matched properly so colors didn't transfer from design.

I reached out to their customer service with my concerns with zero follow-up. There's also no phone number to talk to customer service so you're pretty much on your own.

Beware, if it's too good to be true it normally is...

This is a great app with terrific integration with shopify. It is not quite as intuitive as I would love, however, customer service has been outstanding with every single question that has come up for me.

I've just finished completing my first order and I will admit, it was not that straight forward to setup the fulfillment details. Additionally, the fulfillment process identified Latvia as the closest location??? I'm in the US and it sounds like I will be waiting a while for this. I am doing this order for myself to test the service before fully opening my shop so I'm concerned that I might need to find another service if the order is greatly delayed.
