i have used collage.com. good results. if you join groupon.com, they have specials all the time $40.00 books for 15.
We have used VistaPrint several times with good results. The TopTen didn't consider them.
I have made 15 books on blurb.com. Lots of sizes and full bleed pages are available on every page in the book. Quality is superb with a wide variety of quality paper to choose from. Software is intuitive. My last book had 220 pages of matt finished penalized paper but with a less thick paper you can print over 400 pages in your book. You can also view hundreds of books done by professionals from which you may get some creative ideas for your layouts. However, it is not cheap. All in on my 220 page book it was approx. $270. (12x12 format)

I have used mixbook with excellent resuts.
I have had nice results with Mixbook, but may I piggyback on this and ask where you all recommend for nice full res large prints??

SHUTTERFLY, hands down. I've used several photobook makers and Shutterfly is far and away the best. Not only is their printing quality the best, but so is their customer service so if there's anything you're not satisfied with, they will reprint for free with no hassle, and prices are good and there are always special discount coupons available from them, Groupon, DiscoverCard, et al.

I've used Walgreens several times and have always had them turn our very nice. I usually do them when they have the 50% off sale, makes them a really good price. They make great gifts!

The last book I did was a family effort, using images from my Sony A6000, my daughter’s point and shoot, and my wife’s iPhone. Everyone had full page images, and every image was sharp, high res-looking, and very impressive. I used Blurb and couldn’t be more pleased.
I have had good luck with blurb.com. In my experience, you have to make the pictures slightly more saturated than you would if you were printing them yourself and then remember to check the "Do not adjust" box.
Costco produced a very good product for the images of my grandaughter's wedding that I made.

I have used AdoramaPix many times. The offer full flexibility for you to design any book you can imagine. Quality is excellent and prices reasonable.
I used Snapfish and really do enjoy the results. Easy and straight forward.
