I am looking to print a coffee-table type photobook
Has anyone ever done this, I would like to know which websites are good quality, as well as easy to use.
Thanks

I am not sure that that even exists. A coffee table book a book with a lot of big, glossy pictures (I think)
We would like to print something like that online with our wedding pictures-just pictures, no text or anything, as we can't afford to print a proper album right now, and I want to make sure that it is decent quality.

Lots of places do these.
I just did one for my sons Bar Mitzvah. I chose Shutterfly.com because they had more choices (than Costco for example), in terms of layouts etc. I was quite pleased with the quality.

I used artscow recently, but they only do 8 x 8 books.

Shutterfly.com is by far the best. I made grandparent albums for my inlaws and my dad, and it came out MAGNIFICENTLY. I made an 8 x 8 book, which is a story book, but you can delete the text areas, if you don't want commentry.

I want to make 12 x 12's for the other kids' weddings. Its way nicer than those albums that you get from photographers, becuase you can put so many more pictures in it.

I tried mypublisher.com and it was too slow, because the pictures remain on your computer, whereas shutterfly, you upload them to an album there, choose them and then place them, and the choices are awesome.

HIGHLY recommended.

For the Israelis - I just did one here (beaper than mailing it from the US)
at pic-a-book.
PM if you want a better link and a discount coupon.
THey were great and the book is too. You can do a right to left or left to right format.

Lovely glossy pages.

Artscow will ship to Israel at not much more than it costs to the US. It came out much cheaper than using an Israeli place. (Just you can't use your Isracard because it's not Israeli...)
