I've already ordered some photo albums via the Internet and was always satisfied. This time I have to rely on the positive review of its predecessor and the name HAMA. All the greater was the disappointment when I unpacked the albums: 1. The sides are not like other large-format photo albums made of thick cardboard, but thinner material. 2. I had specially the largest format (34x32 cm) ordered to glue photos in DinA4- format can, but no longer goes through the very inconvenient glued parchment sheets: The adhesive hinge takes as much space on the side of the leaves away that I the albums for my 20x30 cm photos can not be used properly. It remains only a very narrow (6mm) margin left. 3. Even the thin material of the sides does not allow the gluing großfromatiger photos. I am of the albums very disappointed (material and usability for large pictures despite large format albums) and would not buy it again, especially since there are others with better quality and usability.
