Good Value, Great Style
This is a good value. The frame is stylish. I purchased the silver aluminum. The finish was clean.. Easy to assemble, with some forethought. As a quick framing solution I doubt it can be beat. I rate it as only four stars because of what are likely inherent problems in the design and materials, as follows. A. Shipped assembled with glass in the frame. The frame is thin, part of the style, and hence flexes during shipment. I believe this flexing during shipment caused a chip in the glass along one edge. There was a small scratch in the glass elsewhere, but the chip is the most visible. It was shipped with bubble wrap, the default material for shipping everything. Rigid foam board or thicker cardboard is needed. The frame's box is almost, but not quite rigid enough to keep it from flexing during shipment. B. Your photo is placed on the backing, the mat placed over, and all slid into the frame. I advise using photo corners on at least two corners (on mat or backing) to hold a photo where you want it. Have to measure carefully. A bit tricky but can be done. C. The mat is acid free/archival, but the backing appears to be bad cardboard. Replace it or put something over it so your photo doesn't make contact with this cardboard.
