Don't hesitate buying!!!

Quality item! My son and his fiancee absolutely loved the tray. They like unique and personal things and this was the perfect engagement gift. This is the first time buying from Uncommon Goods but it won't be my last!


Great gift for lake and beach houses.

I have given this tray as a gift and it is always a hit. Just the right size for drinks or snacks. Great tray!


Quick Turnaround, but Material Is Eh

I really appreciated how quickly this came, as it was a gift, and I was able to wrap it /put it under the tree quickly. I do wish however, that the material/texture was a bit tougher. I would not place any drinks on it as is due to fear of ruining it, but will try some DIY to make it a more practical serving tray.


I will purchase this item again for a family member!

This item is exactly as described and such an incredible conversation piece. I love it !


Amazing Gift!

The tray turned out amazing! It looked beautiful and the bday girl was very impressed. Definitely more decor than utilitarian. We went with the darker wood frame and looked so professional. The map was clear and placed perfectly. Cannot say enough good things!


easy, quick, thoughtul gift

It was very easy to create this gift and the shipping was super fast. Its beautiful and cant wait to gift it


Better than expected!

Was looking for a unique Christmas gift for my nephew & his partner. I have visited them several times and they have shown me around Denver & the surrounding towns. I was able to chose the spots on the website map for the making of the tray. The stained wood was very nice. Entire tray was very well made and will look nice on the coffee table & make a good conversation piece. I also ordered this down to the wire for Christmas and received it quickly in plenty of time & well packaged. YAY Sweepstakes #141


Truly love this, two areas for improvement

This was a gift for my parents for Xmas and I want to say right off the bat that the product itself was exactly what I ordered, just like it looked in product photos and my parents loved it! Quality is great. My first comment is that the custom map image at the bottom of the tray could benefit from some kind of protective finish like a thin layer of resin or something like that! I envision that the image will fade/scratch off over time with regular use of the tray. If you're buying it just for display (which is valid, it's very cute and perfect to stand up on a shelf somewhere or hang), I don't think you really have to worry about the wear and tear. My second comment is that the product page allows you to refine the exact pin of the location you set so that the image on the tray shows the image you want, which is fantastic, however, maybe a fluke, but when I received my tray, it appears that the image was slightly off center from where I specifically placed it. Maybe user error! Either way, this is a great product and nothing I had to say should dissuade you from buying, I'm just hoping the creators take note! Would buy again.


Excellent Groomsmen Gift

I purchased this map serving tray for one of my groomsmen gifts. My groomsman was pleased to find a map of where he studied abroad in Paris back in college. This was a total hit! I know he will be displaying it in his house shortly. #sweepstakes


Would not recommend

Like the last review (that I just saw - should have read earlier)... The wood is not that nice but the print map is the worst - it is very faint, looks really cheap. Plus I customized with the names of the engaged couple & there's an extra space between the "&" symbol & the guy's name...so looks off-center, poor attention to detail. Paid for express shipping - it arrived very quickly but the quality is so poor. I'm embarrassed to give this as an engagement gift - think I'll have to go buy something else & be out the cost of this + express shipping.
