Maps International - Giant World Map Mural - Mega-Map Of The World Wallpaper - 91 x 62 - Neutral Colors

We were nervous about our ability to install the Map which came in four segments. This was because we had read the reviews. The actual result we accomplished was better than we athough possible. Yes it takes a lot of manipulation but if you put the first segment up completly level then the rest fall into place. It took us about 45 minutes and some manouvering but the map looks fantastic.

This map is great, but it is kind of a pain in the butt to put up. My wife and I spent a good hour putting it up and lining it up correctly and stapled it into the walls. I believe she said that the instructions were to glue it to the wall but we weren't ready for that and decided to go with the staples instead. That worked better for us I think because she's a bit of a perfectionist and wanted it to line up perfectly over each other. Once it's up it looks great and its nice and large, taking up most of the wall we put it on (which is what we wanted). My only wish is that it would have been one large piece of paper instead, but I bet that would be hard to ship.

Beautiful map. Came in 4 pieces. The only reason I didn’t give it. 5 stars is because it’s not pre-pasted.

I ordered this giant wall map for my 6th & 7th grade Intensive Reading class because most of the curriculum materials are featuring cultures & story telling from around the world, Hispanic Heritage Celebration, the Holocaust, & the Cvil Rights Movement. It's a hit! We've traveled from Puerto Rico, Central & South America, to Spain. It's so exciting how excited they are to apply their map skills. It's added realia to the learning environment. It was shipped in a tube in 4 quadrants, non laminated, but durable paper. However, it needs to be laminated if you use it for this purpose. I went to several locations but no one had a machine that could fit the quadrants. Fedx could but it was going to be $250 per quadrant with tax. Yep, $1000. Finally, I got permission fm my principal to laminate it thru the district's print shop if it cost less than $100. It was $60 to laminate the entire map.

Loved this map! Took us a while to install, especially since we didn't follow the directions the first time and had to buy another map. We have orange peel texture on our walls and we we're able to paste the map over it without problems. We found that brushing on a thin layer of paste to the back of the paper and the wall then using a small roller to even it out worked the best to apply. It does stretch if you get it too saturated or if you don't work quickly. Also works best to smooth it out with a heavy sponge. We didn't have one but a soft cloth would work too. (We found this out when my husband started using his shirt to smooth out the edges. He eventually took it off and used that.) Just using your hands could stretch it instead of smoothing it out. FOLLOW THE DIRECTIONS and install them in order!

This map comes in 4 pieces with EXTREMELY vague instructions on how to apply it to the wall. There are spelling errors and grammar mistakes in the instructions, too. Putting this up was a complete failure- the sheets stretch unevenly and make it nearly impossible to line the seams up. Complete waste of money and now we have to scrub excess glue off our walls from where we tried to put it up. Do not buy unless you are an expert at applying wallpaper. Also, the coloring of the printing does not match exactly between sheets.

I had been looking for a wall map for a while, and all were at least 3x the price. I was afraid this would be low quality, put it far exceeded my expectations. Beautiful colors, lots of detail... and BIG!

Did everything in the instructions: cleaned wall, made sure it's flat without any imperfections. Applied paste with special wallpaper paste brush. Once paste is on, the wallpaper becomes like a wet piece of paper. Very difficult to handle. I applied first top corners and slowly with a felt squeegee started working downwards. At the beginning everything seemed fine, no bubbles and the wallpaper was sticking uniformly. After a few minutes, tons of bubbles and creases everywhere. The wallpaper expands while on the wall creating all these problems. Of course the next sheet will not match because you would have to put all 4 pieces at the same time on the wall, to maintain the same expansion rate. I don't understand why they didn't make a single piece of paper. Will most likely remove it and find something better.

Mia moglie l’ha piazzata sul muro del salotto ed e spettacolare, abbastanza facile da installare. Noi abbiamo fatto tagliare 4 pannelli di legno su misura

Really happy with the map , looks great and easier to put up than we thought after reading the reviews . Would definitely recommend

Amazing poster, but it's not easy to install

Would have like it if its self adhesive, its unlike a usual wallpaper quality , so It stretches a lot when applied with paste and being installed. I've read the review before I bought this so I know it was a challenge to put it up. Lo and behold they are not wrong. I like the size, not paper quality as I say, it stretches a lot and will be difficult to align. My installation was not perfect if you look it closely, I let the misalignment pass as it is hard to redo it once it started sticking to the wall.

Makes for an interesting and somewhat challenging setting up. Western Africa, at the crossroad of all 4 maps does not align perfectly This cannot be used as a precise map but more of a beautiful background to a living room.
