Is it any good and would you recommend. There seems to be so much choice and I need one for DDs birthday at the start of April and I am totally lost!

I have a Polaroid. It's really good but the film is expensive. Instax is cheaper Smile

I have a few Instax cameras and one Polaroid, the film is not cheap for any of them and the packs are small.

Maybe instax then if the film is cheaper! I mind spending money on that, I don’t mind so much about the camera cost.

2 of mine have Instax cameras. Neither of them get used. Waste of money. Unless it's something she really really wants I wouldn't bother.

I got a Canon SELPHY printer for my teen. Can be used with a phone or camera. The ink and paper packs are much more realistic and you can do little collages and stuff. Print quality is decent too.

It’s 100% what she wants - she’s asked for a year now.

DD has a HP Sprocket, prints from iPhone, she finds it very useful.

Three of mine have them, they have them between three years and four months. They are not used on a regular basis but are taken out on occasions especially if there is a sleepover. Mine love theirs. Film can be expensive but shop around and there are deals
