Very good product. I expected they might be cheaply made considering the low price, but the frames don't look low end at all.
What I like about them is that they (the picture frames) disappear and the contents of the frame stand out.

Excellent quality glass with rounded edges in minimalist black frame. Very easy to remove / replace pictures. Excellent quality at good price. Very much appreciate the careful packaging employed for shipping.

Very nice frame, easy to use, very simple and minimal design allows the photo to be highlighted. and Adorama Camera had it delivered in two days from the order, well packed.

Used these for posting 40+ fire procedure/escape routes throughout our agency. Buying in bulk was necessary, but shipping increased the cost. They look and work great, but found the exact frame at Wal-Mart for $2 each.

Frame looks great. I've never had a front loading frame before so I was worried, at first, that the picture would fall out but nothing's happened so far. Low cost and looks great. Doesn't look as cheap as the price would suggest. Love it. Would definitely purchase again.

This frame is plastic with a cardboard backing and a piece of glass to hold in and protect what's inside.

The plastics frame/border is very narrow, which I personally really like. Hate wide borders.

I read some other reviews that had problems with the glass, I personally did not; although I only bought one.

The plastics frame does seem a little flimsy, so you should handle it as fragile.

Overall especially for this price I am very happy with the frame. I will likely buy more of these as needed.

I experimented with a couple of these for framing photographs with a standard window mat. The depth of the frame is too shallow to accept even a standard photographic mat. It is fine if you want to place a photograph and nothing else whatsoever in the frame.

Trying to insert the glass after inserting a mat and photo cracks or breaks the corner of the frame, ruining it.

Most frames include a statement regarding the depth (rabbet) available. These front-loading "Format" frames should bear a disclaimer regarding their limitation.

I ordered these from Amazon. These frames are fragile and readily broken in transit. 4 of the ones in our set had either chipped glass or plastic sides. I suggest going with some alternative. These are not worth the money paid.

This frame was exactly what I was looking for. I used it to mount professional certificates on my desk. The frame is plastic but it looks good on the shelf with its minimal and clean design.

I will order more of these in the future as needed.

This is an excellent frame for nudes due to the lack of borders. I photograph nudes in my studio and wanted to find cheap but professional looking frames and these look great on an all white wall. They are perfect for black and white prints.
