This is a laminate in the sense that it is not just plain paper, but not laminated in the way most people consider. The map is not the standard piece of paper that has been taken to Kinkos and had nice thick plastic heated on both sides. Instead it is some sort of paper/plastic material. I purchased this to be able to mark on it with a dry erase marker and then erase and mark other things. As of yet I have not marked on it because I am afraid it will not come off since it is not laminated like normal. I guess this is why it is cheaper than some other "laminated" maps. It is still a good looking map and seems pretty durable.

The map is great but the "Lamination" is very cheap and flimsy. It gets the job done but I'm going to be careful in the future and make sure I buy a map that is more durable, Sturdy and actually laminated and not thin "Plastic-ish" paper.

Took ages to arrive and even though it was rolled in a tube it wasn't rolled very well and consequently looks as though it is folded. I've had it laid out flat for a week now but it's still creased.
Actual image is great though and it's really large.

This map is great and very clear. Amazon shipped it within the specified time and it arrived in excellent condition. No complaints.

This map is exactly what I was looking for. It is very big and covers my wall at work where I will be planning out my travels for work. It took too long to be delivered, though.

I was very pleased with the product, but Amazon took a product that should have been shipped in a tube and mashed it flat between 2 pieces of cardboard. When it arrived I had to work with it a lot to get all the creases out of it. I ended up gluing it to a piece of foam board to get it flat and useable.

If you can find this at a local retailer get it there. Otherwise it will arrive in a plastic bag all creased and bent. This supplier seriously needs to invest in those plan tubes that are more rigid and offer more protection. Will not be buying from them again.

I was surprised when i received a huge and flat package last week. For my surprise, it was my poster order from Amazon. That's correct, instead of using a poster tube to ship the map, Amazon squeezed the item in between two large pieces of cardboard.

As result of the poor packaging job, poster arrived flattened - very disappointing, of course. I am now contacting Amazon's customer service for a replacement product - i hope this time they ship it right!

After reading the reviews about arriving creased and damaged I figured Amazon would have it figured out by now. WRONG!!! Arrived in a rectangular box that was crushed... map is toast. Come on guys... how hard can it be to ship a poster?? Do not buy this map unless you want a creased map.

I was totally dissapointed with this map. I ordered this to put it up in my daughter's room. But when I receive this, it was all wringkled and the laminating was so thin to tell whether it is acutally laminated at all. I am keeping them just because my daughter wants it in her room so bad yet I don't recommand this to anyone.....
