Customer service is online only and they do not accommodate for late arrivals. 5 to 8 business days is stated when processing the order but in the email they replied it is 3 days processing and 7 days in production. You can expect your order to arrive within 2-3 weeks after placing your order. I did not have the order in time for a gift. I ordered 4/27/26. It's is 5/11. More of an international shipping and not US local.See less

Don't waste your money – I thought I was buying an Australian product, their website leads you to believe that's what you're doing. I don't mind buying from China, I would like it to be a choice and not a trick. Delivery time is wildly exaggerated. My canvas took 4 weeks to arrive, tracking number didn't give updated or accurate information. I emailed multiple times and… Read more

was fobbed off with platitudes and assurances my satisfaction was important to them. I asked for a refund on multiple occasions as I stopped believing there was an order and thought I'd been scammed. My canvas went to a post office over 1000km away. I notified customer service who again told me my satisfaction was important to them. When I finally received my canvas it was in a thin, flimsy plastic bag with multiple signs of damage after its extremely long journey. The canvas itself is also damaged slightly. Upon notifying customer service I was told a replacement would be sent because my satisfaction is important to them. 11 days later I enquired after my replacement and was told "management" had reviewed it were not replacing it. If I hadn't enquired I still wouldn't know. I have found this company to be unethical and dishonest and wish I'd never wasted my money. Clearly my satisfaction is not as important as they said in every single email.

Another dishonest Chinese business posing as Australian – This business poses as a small Australian business whereas they operate from China. It is unacceptable to use this dishonest tactic to win the support and trust of the Australian consumer.

I just lodged a complaint with the ACCC. Please do the same to stop dishonest businesses operating in disguise.

Terrible communication and no show on faulty product – I have emailed 3 times and it’s been over 2 months and this company still haven’t sent me a replacement of the faulty product. I even paid more for delivery for this. The canvas is lifting off the wall. I notified them 2 months ago ASAP when I received it and they said they’d send another. Nothing in 2 months. Wouldn’t purchase from here again and will let other know this also.

Do NOT use this service – I placed an order on the 14th May at which time I was advised that delivery would be 5-7 days from that date. The print did not arrive until 15th June and when I opened it it had a small but very noticeable dent in the top left-hand corner of the canvas. I immediately bought this to the attention of Custom Canvas Online. Their response was..."Can… Read more

you try to use the garment steamer or hot cloths iron that sprays hot water to smooth out the dent"? The also offered a store credit of $80 that I will not be using as I will never use this service again. I have spent $300 for a canvas I cannot hang.

Better than I expected! – SO happy with the end result. Still wrapped in plastic and ready to be hung. Can’t wait to purchase another 10 pieces of art for our office space. Very, very happy with the service and end result. Exceeded my expectations!!

Be warned – Be Aware that this is not an Australian company, even though they try to portray that they are. I deliberately chose them as I believed that they were an Australian Company, but only found out when I received the tracking that my prints were coming from China. This is very annoying and then became indicative of the quality that they produce. I… Read more

thought by ordering from an Aussie company that I was firstly supporting a local Aussie business, secondly, it would ensure a reasonable quality of product and lastly, it would ensure a speedy turn around. So, the first issue was that the prints took much longer than they say on their website, then I had multiple issues with delivery, which was a combination of their error and the courier incompetence, then when I finally received the canvasses, they were both of very very basic quality, only just held together, and each one had one of the support struts not attached. I asked for a replacement and they refused, and offered a small refund. To be fair, they did respond reasonably quickly to this complaint. However, my canvasses were very large and hence cost quite a bit of money, and the refund they offered really did not compensate for the poor quality of the frames. They finally agreed to slightly increase the refund, but complained to me that they had to pay higher than usual courier costs due to the size of the prints, which was apparently my fault?! To top it all off, when I attempted to leave what I consider a more than fair review on their website, they blocked my review and would not post it. Please use this company only if you understand that it is NOT AUSTRALIAN, that it will take much longer than promised to receive your canvas, and the quality will be only barely acceptable. Do yourself a favour and find a truly Australian company to support instead.

Just perfect! – I was after particular images for canvasses as gift to son & dil for their new home that I couldn't find in retail stores. Having found the artwork images I wanted, Custom Canvas Online did a brilliant job in applying them to my canvas size choice. The colours & images are clear and bright, the print quality excellent as is the total framed… Read more

finish. The communication through the process of submitting order to its completion was excellent, nothing done until I approved the proofs via email exchange, & delivery was fast with tracking available through transit to delivery receipt.

Absolute value for money & no hesitation in recommending their service through my own experience. I'm even planning my next commissions.

January 5th 2018 Update: Second purchase

I've made another purchase from Custom Canvas..this time I had professional wedding pictures in b&w and a color family portrait printed for my son & d-i-l. They are perfect. The b&w prints were slightly different in shades but Custom Canvas were able to print them so the tone on all four were the same. Email preview allowed me to change from a gallery wrap to a solid color edge on the b&w prints for a better finish.

I highly recommend this company and their service, I can't fault on quality, price or timely delivery.

January 7th 2017 Update: Second purchase

Returning customer...I made another purchase from Custom Canvas...this time I had 4 b&w prints and 1 color print reproduced from professionally taken wedding and family portrait pics....they evened the tone of the b&w prints to match, I was able to make a change through the email preview process and the finished prints were perfect...packaged wee and delivered safely.. the whole process was between 2-3 weeks immediately prior to Christmas & they were on time to be put under the tree....perfect again & I highly recommend.

Great Company - Highly Recommend – After looking around at many canvas printing services for my first set of canvas prints, I came across Custom Canvas Online, which had prices (including shipping) better than anyone else. My project was an image across 3 canvases, each 600mm (w) x1000mm (h). I was a little nervous at the process, as all the other sites allowed you to upload,… Read more

preview and re-arrange your layouts using web based software which looked pretty much the same from all places. Custom Canvas allows you to select your layout and upload your image - but no software involved. Once I placed my order (and also requested they send a preview before proceeding), and because I wanted to be very specific as to how may image was laid out, I used another site's software with the same format of prints to mock up what I wanted, then took a screen grab which I cropped and emailed through to Custom Printers to show the layout I wanted. They sent back a preview within 3 hours of me placing my order - which showed exactly what I requested. The final product was hanging on my wall 7 days later - exactly as per the preview image.

Each canvas was individually wrapped in plastic, then bubble wrapped around all three and boxed for shipping. As soon as the item was shipped I received an email notification with a tracking number which I tracked through Auspost. Note that this product is shipped from China - however I have no problems with this other than that it wasn't mentioned on the website which makes it seem everything is done in Australia - but for the price and the final result - I'm happy. I paid through Paypal to protect my details and just in case things went wrong - but nothing did.

The canvas is stretched over a basic timber frame (rough low cost timber, but it does the job) with a hook centred at the top for hanging. I can't compare print quality vs other printers as this is my first canvas print - however all the colours appear correct (as long as you don't assume the colours on your home computer screen are EXACTLY what is printed - if you expect this then you need to research the difference between colours possible in printed ink technology vs colours possible in a backlit LED screen - let alone whether or not your computer screen has been calibrated....etc. etc.). All in all a great result. If they are using Epson printers as they state on their website (and I would assume Epson inks, but in China - who knows) then the print quality lives up to expectation.

I will definitely use their services again. Quick, low cost, excellent communication Not clearly stated product will come from China (although doesn't bother me). Great results anyway.

Love the reproduction of my photo – I thoroughly recommend Canvas on line, customer service was efficient and very helpful. I was emailed a draft of how my finished photo would look on canvas and I was able to select exactly which area of the photo I wanted to be reproduced. The canvas arrived in a couple of weeks and was packed carefully. I am very happy with the result.

Couldn't be happier! – I just received four framed canvases and they are absolutely gorgeous!!!! The quality far exceeded what I had imagined. I can honestly say that they are flawless. The wood on the frames is so nice and the exact tone I was after.

Not Australian but Chinese – The website does does not disclose the item is printed and shipped from China, instead only displaying a Sydney address. We feel this is exceedingly misleading to your customers, who may choose to only buy Australian products, if they have the full facts. Your website states that you deliver door to door in 5-7 business days. We ordered and paid… Read more

on May20th, so now we would be more like 14 business days out from that and by the supplied tracking records, our order is still in China. No matter how good the canvas might be when it eventually arrives here this bad customer experience has left us extremely dissatisfied with your company and we will feel obliged to give you a review that reflects the level of service and honesty we have been given, which is poor in the extreme.

Frustrated but happy with order in the end – After receiving my tracking number I then realized it was made in China to my surprise. Very disappointed and furious it was not stated on website. Thinking it was made in Sydney I didn't hesitate as I wanted to support Australia. Took 5 weeks with continuous emails and not much support. Was an automated response service. In the end all emotions… Read more

aside, I received the print and to my surprise it was PERFECT. The finish was amazing, so good job there. To have a successful business you need honesty and a good communication base.

HORRIBLE, falsely advertising canvases are made in Australia – This company falsely advertises that the canvases are Australian Made, they are NOT, they are made in CHINA!! Website also states 5-7 business day turnaround to door, it took 20 business days to arrive! Horrible customer service when confronted them that they mislead customers. How are we supposed to support Australian made and owned companies when they blatantly lie!

5 Star Customer Service – A total professional and great customer service. Canvas well packed and received within days. Highly recommended. No regrets. Their customer service follow ups and advises in regards to your print submission are remarkable. If only other businesses could apply this kind of customer service. To top it all when the product arrived .. it was A grade! Pricing was very reasonable too!

Chinese Company faking as an Australian Company. I am so furious I got sucked in! Don't buy from China – During Covid it is now more important than ever to support Australian Companies. I searched all over their website to ensure I was buying Australian, so I thought! The only way I found out was from their email to me with my tracking details via FedEx shipped from Xiamen CN. They pretend to be Australian with the address of 361-363 KENT… Read more

STREET,SYDNEY NSW 2000, Australia, there is no store at this address, looks like a private apartment block. No phone numbers. I AM MORTIFIED THAT I WAS DECEIVED INTO THINKING THIS WAS AN AUSTRALIAN BUSINESS. I will be reporting them to the Authorities as they are deceptive, using a .com.au address also. I am furious that I have sent my hard earned money over to China.

Do not trust this Chinese company – I placed an order on 23 Mar 2020 for a Panoramic Canvas Prints which costed me $85.90. I received my order from China on 14 Apr 2020 (i.e. three weeks later) but the print sadly had damages on it. The pacel arrived completely fine and in original shape (i.e. it appears the parcel was not even slightly damaged during transportation). The defect was… Read more

probably due to the printing technology or material used. Upon receiving the parcel and realising the defect, I logged into my online account at their website, and placed a return request but unfortunately have not heard from you since then.

Simply put, my $85.90 went to the bin. As other have said, Chinese has registered this AU domain with a address located at Sydney. There would be no customer support if you place an order.

Edit: they finally contacted me and offered a replacement

7-8 business days) and couldn't be more impressed. Once again, great picture quality on a strong material. Email consultation on final image cropping happened early on to ensure that the pictures shown would be as required. The wrap-around is not a crop of the image, but a mirror of the adjacent image edge so blends in without looking out of place & no picture lost.

Highly recommend for price, speed and quality!

Such sweet, helpful, excellent service – So glad I found Custom Canvas Online on the Internet! I wasn't sure what was best for my canvas and Betty in the Support team patiently made suggestions, and persevered when we struggled to download a hi-res JPG. The quoted price was more than reasonable, the end quality was great, and delivery was fast. I will definitely use them again. Josephine Brouard, Woolloomooloo, Sydney.
