They make it easy to order, have comparable prices, and many choices including beads not found in other stores. Also love the designs and the fact there is a pattern for each.

Products are easy to find on the website. Large selection of beads and good sales. I have had some log in issues. I have also had issues with bead quality. Some aren’t drilled all the way and the color flaked off of lined beads.
