Review by Mom Does Reviews:

I was very excited to get my PhotoTrax in the mail last week! I was even more excited to find out how easy they are to use. You know when a product is user-friendly when the instructions only have 3 or 4 steps. The first step was to remove the adhesive squares and stick them to the back of the Trax (one in each corner). Then press the Trax firmly to the wall. Then fill with photos or artwork! Now, if you want to use the Trax for bigger photos or art projects, you can split the Trax and customize them to fit any size picture. They come pre-scored for easy splitting. Mount the bottom Trax on the wall first, the put the photos or papers (all of the same size) on the bottom groove. The place the top Trax onto the photos and press firmly onto the wall. It was so easy to put up, my 9 year-old put some up in his room for his favorite posters that come in his Lego Magazines. We are planning to redecorate his room, using the PhotoTrax will make everything so much easier and less permanent.

PhotoTrax is the perfect solution for anyone who loves to display family pictures and kiddie artwork! Front-loading photos is so much easier than dealing with frames or photo albums. Mom Does Reviews highly recommends PhotoTrax for anyone that wants any easy way to display photos, artwork, posters and more. The possibilities are endless!

The only thing I didn’t like about PhotoTrax is that I want more!
