RetroViewer

Awesome Keepsake

We have been getting a yearly real for the last 4-5 years and it has become a family tradition/keepsake. It is always easy to make new reels and the turnaround is fast even with the regular shipping. Will use for many years to come!

Birthday Tradition

I have used RetroViewer for years. I have 6 grandchildren and each year I make them a reel highlighting important events in their past year. They all look forward to their birthday reel.

I order a reel every year for Father's Day. Designing the reel is easy and my product comes right on time. Quality is very good.

I paid for an american prices for chinese quality

I paid for an american made item and i am disappointed. When i look into the viewer the pictures are NOT clear and I have to constantly push the change button multiple times for it to change.

Creative and Fun Gift

Good quality. Fast delivery. Great gift for kids and adults.

I had bought from RetroViewer before- around 2024 and had a great experience, so I recently placed another order! their reels have always turned out great for me, and the quality has been consistently excellent. this time around I reached out with a question about my order and mentioned that I had accidentally bought a red viewer through Amazon before realizing I could have ordered everything directly from their website and in any color. even though that wasn't their responsibility at all, their team kindly offered to include a black RetroViewer with my order, which I truly appreciated. that level of customer care really stood out to me. it's clear they care about their customers and the experience people have with their products. also, I placed this recent order around 2 days ago and it has already been shipped, such a plus! I'm still waiting for my order to arrive, but based on my previous purchase and the great service I've received so far, I'm confident it will be just as great as before

Excellent Customer Service

I had purchased from RetroViewer before- around 2024 and had a great experience, so I recently placed another order! Their reels have always turned out great for me, and the quality has been consistently excellent. This time around I reached out with a question about my order and mentioned that I had accidentally purchased a red viewer through Amazon before realizing I could have ordered everything directly from their website and in any color. Even though that wasn’t their responsibility at all, their team kindly offered to include a black RetroViewer with my order, which I truly appreciated. That level of customer care really stood out to me. It’s clear they care about their customers and the experience people have with their products. Also, I placed this recent order around 2 days ago and it has already been shipped, such a plus! I’m still waiting for my order to arrive, but based on my previous purchase and the great service I’ve received so far, I’m confident it will be just as great as before. Highly recommend! - Krod

Great Gift Idea…

Received view master in a timely manner which gave me time to order photo reels. Purchased for my brother's 80th bday, and he loved it. I will now make new reels for every occasion from old and new photos for him, and I know it is something he will cherish.

So easy and such fun!

A Unique Way To Show Off Photos

My niece wanted photos of the grandparents, so I created this reel for her. I ordered it later than I should have, but it still came in plenty of time for her birthday, much more quickly than the time frame indicated. The creation process on the site was super-simple, and the result is beautiful. I also bought the viewer, which is nice, but a standard View-Master viewer will work just as well and costs about the same. One difference to note: a View-Master reel has a paper coating over all but the photos. This reel is some kind of plastic all over; whether that's good or bad, I don't know, but it does allow for an extra photo in the center of the reel. A little pricey, but I would definitely buy this again.

Great nostalgic gift!

I found and ordered the RetroViewer from Uncommon Goods as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend. The ordering process was simple. There was a little technical issues when first putting together a reel, but it eventually smoothed out just fine. It may have been a computer issue on my end; I'm not sure. It wasn't long before everything came together and I was able to get everything ordered. The reels I ordered were delivered quickly and made for a perfect gift!

It makes a fun gift

It makes a fun gift. The images on the reel don't seem as 3D as I remember, but my friend said she loved seeing the photos through the viewer. This is a good gift to commemorate special events. It is easy to upload the images and the reel was shipped in a timely manner. This is the second one I've given as a gift and it was received with greater enthusiasm than the first.

Unique Gift

I really liked the finished product. The pictures were clear and it was fun to gift to my husband. Very unique. A tad pricey, especially the viewer. I felt like they scare you into buying that by not guaranteeing their reels will work in other viewers. We have two different generations of ViewMaster and they worked fine with the reels, so take that how you will.

Great experience Great gift

Easy. Great product. Good turn around time on the reel and easy to upload pictures. The pictures looked great in the viewer and everyone loved them as Christmas gifts.
