I would like to do one of these but I don't know much about them...
1.Does anyone know if they are difficult to care for?
2. What is the longevity of a wrap?
3. Are there any sites that you could name that have a great quality wrap that you know of?

I've been eyeing a few, but those 3 things listed are some concerns of mine and what is holding me back.

Any help is greatly appreciated :)

I have had a number of Gallery Wraps done by Canvas Press and they do fantastic work. According to the conversations I have had with them the canvases are artist quality and are printed on with large format epson printers with archival ink so the canvas is rated to last 100 years.
Caring for them is probably easier than something behind glass because you can use a duster or swiffer to clean off the dust and a warm damp cloth to clean anything more than dust off.
I would definitely recommend www.canvaspress.com/pr​o (external link). They have terrific customer service and are willing to send you digital proofs if you need them. I think if you sign up for the pro account you get a free 16x20 studio sample.
Hope that helps.

Why do they force you to sign up without even seeing any of their products? I will look into it a bit more, I appreciate the response!

I use UpDone.com. I order the canvas print, build the box and wrap it myself. I can get a 36x48 inch wrap for less than $50.
