Review of CanvasChamp customer complaints, rating & accreditation on Better Business Bureau
Is CanvasChamp registered on BBB?
CanvasChamp is not registered on BBB. Therefore, this business has no BBB rating and accreditation.
Secondly, it did take about 2-2.5 weeks to get in the mail. It's coming from over seas so I am understanding. I was very patient and honestly almost forgot I ordered them until they came in which made it such a fun surprise! Like, you forget you order it and then it's like a gift on a random day!
Lastly, my photos came out great and I will recommend this company to EVERYONE! I know people leave bad reviews because of the shipping but the work that they did was amazing and for an amazing price!
I made an online order for a 30X40 wall print for gifting my friend who bought a new home. I received the copy 2 days before and found that the signature at the bottom right corner of the image is printed as 60% cut off to the border. This is a very basic quality check which can be done before printing. I reached out to customer care and CanvasChamp are saying totally non- related explanations and not giving me an answer why the printing person didn't do the basic check to see if the text at the picture is cutting off. Customer care is very bad as they only encourage to send email and they respond with simple one sentence relies without any resolution (I have asked to reprint it without text cutoff).
I will never recommend this to any one else.
Please stay away if you want to get your images print properly.
Edit: finally got a hold of a human at canvaschamp and CanvasChamp refunded my shipping fees ($15) and promised that the duty would be paid, but that's not confirmed yet.
It was first time and after some reviews from other people about the service and courier system I am really worried about my order. Still I want to remain respectful to everyone. If the Canvaschamp team would read this please resolve my issue without any further inconvenience.
I am going to wait till July that's it.
Also I have given 2 stars because I am not sure about the quality of my photo prints that I ordered. But service wise This was my not so good experience.
Edit: I strongly suspect that this review will get a canned response from the company which can be seen on every single negative review and I copied below! Laugh with me about the horrible customer service when this posts below my review...
This makes them look like they respond to negative feedback and want to do better. In reality they only cut and past the same excuse for not fulfilling their promises.
The "heavy order flow for Christmas and backlog of pending orders" were completely predictable in the holiday season. They failed to plan accordingly. They could have hired more people in help fulfill the orders (we have plenty of people looking for work,) they could have adjusted guaranteed delivery dates to be accurate and realistic or they could have chosen to only take as many orders as they could realistically fulfill. If they had said it was sold out I would have gone on to another site and gotten my gift in time for Christmas and never left such a crappy review!
I don't believe Paul K from their supposed "customer service" department. Their customer service is non existent.
"We are extremely sorry for the inconvenience caused. Due to heavy order flow for Christmas and backlog of pending orders, we apologize for the delay.
Please note, we do not compromise with quality even in heavy rush of orders, and in normal situation, delay doesn't occur. This is only a matter of time.
You will get your order delivered as soon as possible.
Warm regards,
Paul K"
It was advertised and guaranteed to be delivered before Christmas today is December 24 still has not arrived! CanvasChamp told me my order was still in production and would arrive in January and stated that to be here before Christmas would had to paid for express shipping and it plainly stated order now receive befor Christmas free shipping! Now I have to go purchase replacement gifts and I am not happy about this at all very angry Do not purchase from Canvas Champs as they lie and falsely there ads!
The 2nd attempt was worse than the first, and for the same reason. Both sets of images were shipped from India. I take no exception to the long ship time, but neither set of images had any corner protection which resulted in damage in the long journey both times. While CanvasChamp might be able to print a satisfactory image, this company is unable to pack media appropriately for the overseas journey. I'd steer clear. It wasn't worth the hassle to attempt to use a distant printer, even at the budget price, since CanvasChamp went 0/6 on getting the prints to me undamaged. I'd recommend CanvasChamp consider adding intentional foam corner protection to their shipping strategy rather than hoping a couple of flimsy composite boards hold up to an overseas trip with FedEx to save themselves some money on (pointless) re-prints, as well as likely maintaining satisfied customers. Not a single metal print was usable out of the original set of three, nor the replacement order of three. Perhaps you'd have better luck if you were in Asia or Europe and the journey weren't so arduous, but I wouldn't risk it!
So after you order a 11x14, you should read the order message to let you know that you will not be getting 11x14, but could be getting 10x15 or anything around that size.
Their print WILL NOT fit in a standard frame because CanvasChamp are whatever size they want to make it.
DO NOT ORDER FROM THEM. Their response is, you should know from the order email that we don't send you the size you ordered, but close to it. WORTHLESS if you can frame it.
BTW they use DHL, they say 2 weeks expect 3 weeks.
Why would you waste your money on this kind of company. No refund, you should know when we say 11x14 it is really not 11x14 from our web site and the note we send once you order.
I complained to them and sent them extremely detailed information about all the issues. I included labeled photos of every issue, and photos of the old prints that were done correctly for reference. They told me they would correct the issues and send me a new order free of charge. I waited another 2 months for this order to be fulfilled, and had to exchange a ton of emails with them. SO much work. The corrected order finally arrived and was completely wrong again. 2 of the 4 pictures were exactly the same as the first incorrect batch, and the other 2 were the wrong size again and had no mat at all.
I am not a high maintenance customer. I have been incredibly patient, waiting much longer than the website said it takes to fulfill orders. I understand that with the pandemic things are behind. I tried to work with them to correct the problem. After all this I am throwing the prints in the trash and getting my money back.
I have been trying to leave my experience in reviews to warn other people about this, and I have found that many of their positive reviews seem fake, and barely make sense as if they were computer generated. Finding a place to leave a real review is very difficult. I wish I had noticed these things before spending my money here.
DO NOT ORDER PRINTS FROM THEM.
- Prompt response to questions and queries
- Timely delivery. The expected delivery was March 17th and it was delivered on March 17th at 12:30 p.m.
Negatives:
I ordered a 30"x25" metal print and paid 100+ USD for it. The print was very dark and the colors were very different than the colors in the JPEG that I used. The trees are all dark brown (CanvasChamp are green in my photo). I am very disappointed by the print quality. In fact, the print is so bad that I am not going to hang it in my living room.
I really wanted to like and recommend CanvasChamp, but unfortunately, I am not going to recommend them for metal prints.
Dear Customer
We apologize for the inconvenience. Please know that as the products are handmade so there are + or - 1inch variation which we have mentioned on the website.
Regards

Don't buy anything from here, trust me, it's crap.
Called them again and they lied that they did not receive my email. It was all an obviously an avoidance tactic. Sent another email and kept them on the phone, confirmed email address, and they again stated they did not receive email.
Out right Lies. Advised them if I don't receive acknowledgment that a refund is being processed, I would contact Visa and deny charges. Canvas Champ is not delivering any resemblance of a quality product and they have refused to refund on a terrible quality product.
DO NOT GET SUCKED IN BY PRICE OR CONVENIENCE IF YOU WISH TO PURCHASE ANYTHING OF REASONABLE QUALITY. VAANVAS CHAMPS HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DELIVER AND HAS REFUSED TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION.
I ordered a total of 4 canvases of my wedding photos: 2 for my household and 2 as gifts for my parents for Christmas 2019. Sizes ranged from 16x20" to 22x30". Though too late to give in time for Christmas, the 2 for my parents were otherwise perfect so I let the tardiness go and figured it would be safe to assume the others were just as perfect. Why wouldn't I right? Well, BIG MISTAKE to assume that.
I was in the process of moving when I received my canvases and subsequently jumped right into home renovations so in an effort to preserve them from damage (ironically) I left them in their protective packaging. Our renos recently finished and therefore I went to decorate our walls only discover an alignment defect on the 2 prints for my household. What a MISTAKE it was to wait to check them... Outside the 90-day window, believe me. no ifs, ands or buts, you are screwed.
This is what you can expect if you DO wait to check them.
You: Hello there, I see in your FAQs that we have 90 days from receipt of order to claim a reprint however back in January we were in the process of moving and then jumped into home renos so in an effort to preserve my canvases I left them in their protected boxes. Our renos recently finished and therefore went to decorate our walls and discovered a defect in the alignment of our print outside this 90-day window.... would I still be permitted to send in pictures of the defects for reprint?
CanvasChamp: No. I am sorry. We can provide only reprint within 90 days period.
You: Wow so plainly stated customer satisfaction isn't a priority? Nor is a return customer, or a referral to a friend, or good review?
CanvasChamp: All the condition are mentioned on our website.
You: Right but when I received it do you really think I was expecting a defect and would check your return policy when I didn't expect needing it?
CanvasChamp: 90 days is long period for checking the product.
You: I was keeping it safe... Keeping what your website claims would be "100% quality GUARANTEE" and "top notch customer service" with "lightning fast shipping" which was definitely not the case either.
CanvasChamp: That is with under terms and conditions
You: Okay thanks for your lack of help. Please escalate this to your manager. I'd like to receive a phone call.
CanvasChamp: Please be informed that I am from management team and providing you best resolution.
You: A manager is the first line of defense on chats? You must get a lot of complaints.
Moral of my story, check your product ASAP because the benefits CanvasChamp claim on their website are lies, even PRE covid19.
1) "Lightning Fast Shipping" - Nope. Ordered my product Dec 2, 2019 with "guaranteed" delivery by Dec 21, 2019. It was delivered Dec 30th from India to Blaine, WA, USA. Didn't I buy this from the US??
2) "Lowest Price GUARANTEE" - Sure. I guess you get what you pay for when they offshore their product and people.
3) "100% Quality GUARANTEE" - Check you canvases AS SOON AS THEY ARRIVE or you're 100% screwed.
4) "Top Notch Customer Service" - Um. If they call the above top notch, and from a "manager" with improper English to boot, they have lots to learn.
They could have turned the situation around so easily, specially since I wasn't trying to game any system, I was legit just trying to keep my precious photos safe from EXTERNAL damage. Seriously, SO ironic. They could have taken my sadness, applied EMOTION to the situation rather than their canned responses to make this post a praise of their product and service, but instead they went with this.
So if you choose to still buy from them, just be forewarned, CHECK. THEM. ASAP.
I have checked several times on the status post Dec 11th since it was still showing "In production". I have emailed client service several times and each time Bruce expressed his regret in the inconvenience each and every time and shared with me what I already know from the "my orders" tab on the site; it's STILL in production.
On Sunday Dec 20th I was told "We really understand your concern and have requested the related team to prioritize the order and ship it within within 24-48 business hours positively" Dec 22nd, 48 hrs away, still in production.
I absolutely understanding shipping delays during the holidays, especially this year. This has nothing to do with shipping and everything to do with this company making promises CanvasChamp cannot keep.
I fully expect to not see these items until well into January and I will be requesting a full refund.
I will NOT be using this company again and will actively discourage others from using them.
The 1 star is for "Bruce" and his regret in the delays...
*** update - finally sent via FedEx, from India on Wednesday Dec 23rd. Estimated delivery is Tuesday January 5th 2020. It took 32 days to prepare my order and send.
* Proof: where they send you the proof to review before "printing", it's literally the same digital image you uploaded to print. Other services essentially send you the print preview of what will come out. It was a waste of money (however small the fee) to just get sent back the same image you uploaded.
Shipping: I ordered 2 items in one order to the same address. Once I got the order shipped I notice two different tracking numbers. One for the mug and one for the canvas. The mug came and fairly quickly considering the items ship from India, but the canvas when I checked the tracking ended up somewhere in Michigan. I sent them an email and they at first said okay we'll send you another and I responded to confirm they won't charge me to ship another item. They responded retracting that they'll send another and instead said that I did receive the item and sent me a screenshot of the FedEx tracking log (this was the tracking for the mug which I did receive not the tracking for the canvas, which I referenced to in my first email). I replied by once again referencing the correct tracking number and this time included all the receipts, from the email that showed the two tracking numbers to the FedEx tracking log showing it ended up in the middle of nowhere (sorry Michigan but it didn't specify where in Michigan). Once I sent them that they said they would send over a new one. I stalked FedEx and sure enough it arrived (I can't say on time because on time would've been at the same time as the mug) and they didn't charge me extra but I think it's because I used PayPal (I could be wrong as to why they didn't charge me)
Please save yourself the time and frustration; go somewhere else to print your images. There are so many other options out there. You know, if these items were for myself maybe i wouldn't have written this review but these items are meant as gifts and now I have to explain the my loved ones why their gift looks terrible. If you still choose to purchase something from CanvasChamp keep all your receipts and emails, stay on top of FedEx and expect really poor quality. I regret not looking into the comments themselves before ordering from them
