Review on NuWallpaper NUS3562 Saybrook Stick Wallpaper by Kev See

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Beautiful but painful

We wanted to install this wall in the children's room. This is a beautiful pattern with a large print. Unfortunately, setting and perfectly aligning all lines that slightly overlap was a disaster. It started well at the top, and then when we placed it at the bottom, all the lines were cut off. If you take too much of it you will feel it stretch out like we did and then we had to throw away a whole section which required another roll to finish the job. In fact, I'm surprised my husband and I are still married afterwards - it must mean we'll be together for the long haul since we survived the wallpaper installation. I've seen other reviewers mention cutting it into smaller pieces to try and line up the drawing better, and they didn't find those pieces flashy. Something to consider for the future. Another point to note is that while I love the look of baby room paper, it has a bit of a sheen to it and when you touch it feels like a vinyl sticker. I'm actually okay with that as this is a child's room and is subject to some wear and tear and needs regular wiping. However, I probably wouldn't use this in a nicer living space. Glad we used it but be careful it's hard work.

Pros
  • Great design
Cons
  • Some difficulties
