MCS Format 8x10 Picture Frame Black, Gallery Wall Vertical & Horizontal Wall Hanging Picture Frame for Photos & Art Prints (12-Pack)

I've now purchased these three or four times in different sizes. I love the ease of use and the ultra-thin frame, which doesn't distract from the artwork. If that's the look you want they are a very good choice. They're definitely cheap plastic (which is fair; they are cheap), but they don't look it when hanging, and I've never gotten one with broken plastic or chipped glass or anything. I have only hung them—the little stand seems pretty terrible—but for hanging ultra thin profile black frames they're a great choice.

These frames are rather spectacular! I have a photography series my sister did when in high school that I have been meaning to hang for decades now, and I finally decided I would just put them in any kind of inexpensive frames to protect them at least! But these frames are gorgeous! Very minimalist, which I love, and super easy to use: you don't even need any other tools except your fingers! In fact, I had hand surgery 5 days ago, and I have already assembled five of them with not even a full complement of opposable thumbs! They are quite sturdy I'm finding out, because I am applying a lot of force with this rigid partial cast, which I don't recommend, and the glass isn't breaking!?! They seemed to be harping on it in the video, but it's just true that the finished edges preclude any crack propagation or nucleation (if you will) sites, gracias a Dios. It turns out they're also sturdy, because being down an opposable thumb makes moving things clumsy at best, and I dropped them on a hardwood floor from I don't know, maybe 2 feet... they just bounced and were fine! They are actual glass, which is why they can pop in and out without flexing and looking creepy and yellowing over time with whatever UV electromagnetic waves manage to reach them. As you can see from the photo, after handling the glass, forcing it to pop back into place, you will have to clean off fingerprints (I'm being very careful to only touch the edges and the front/outdide, so after I hang them I can clean them all off), and there is of course reflection, but I have yet to find glare proof glass that truly lets you see all of the tiny detail through it -- I want to be able to see evidence of every grain of silver in that gel (I know, I know, not possible with the naked eye). So? I'm thrilled!

Perfect, reasonably priced, easy install!

Plastic frames with stand attached to the interior. Easily removable. Some work some do not. That's not to say that the design of the stand is flawed, it's the fact that the frames are all slightly twisted-quite twisted, indeed! I have used similar frames for quite a long time and thought I would try these out because of the price point and the quantity of frames that I go through. These were nearly identical to my usual frames, being that they were plastic, had almost identical "stands", and with very little recess of the glass to the front of the frame (giving it a more professional look, strictly, in my opinion). Four of the twelve were filthy. They were all a little dusty and smudged, but a few were just dirty. They all cleaned up very well with a little effort and time. Both of which I value more than the frames or the glass. Speaking of the glass; I tried for nearly a half hour to get one pane of glass clean just to realize that it was just really inexpensive piece of glass that would never look "clean". Again, if I were in the position of needing "decent enough" looking frames for a very low price, and quickly, these will do the job. All in all, these are good for the price point if they are discounted. Otherwise, I'll be sticking to the other frames I have been using for so long. Easily found at the same price point. I hope this helps. Happy shopping!

These picture frames were perfect for adding a wall of uniform looking pictures. I wanted a full wall of a "through the years" theme displaying all my kids' school pictures. These were perfect for display, making the picture the star and not the frame. After reading others' reviews I was a little concerned that the frames would be chipped or damaged in some way but I have used all of them and all were in perfect condition. Each frame comes wrapped in it's own protective plastic and can be used for wall hanging or setting on a shelf. They are front loading and easy to pop out, place your picture in and then pop back in. For those pictures that may have been trimmed a bit too small, the black cardboard that is in each frame hides that flaw well when place behind the photo. Pros Easy to put pictures in Black cardboard backing hides any gap from trimming photo too small Frames were individually wrapped to protect them from damage Simple frame makes the photo the star instead of focusing on the frame Frames can be used to display photos on wall or on shelf Each frame comes with a tab and instructions to make is a free standing frame Works with a photo mat if you want one Simple to hang. The frame has holes to hang horizontal or vertical Frame is light enough you can use a push pin to hang it from Cons If you change from hanging to sitting on a shelf you will need to take out the photo and put back in upside down. The way to attach the tab for the stand uses the same hole that you would use to hang on the wall so the top of the frame would then be the bottom if moving from wall to shelf. It's very easy to just pop out the photo and put back in, but it still would be nice to change your display decision without taking your photos out.

I looked around on amazon for a bit looking for a frame for a poster I had. I was looking for something that was cheap, sturdy, minimalist, durable, and had four or more stars. This frame met all my criteria, without breaking my wallet. Its has a super minimalist design that is both durable and sturdy. The glass on the front arrived without any chips or cracks. You can display your picture in both landscape (horizontal) and portrait (vertical) ways. The bezels are super tiny, almost invisible, but to show you how small they are I compared them to a standard Ticonderoga pencil in a picture I took. Whats also nice, is the bezels don't cover up any of the poster so you can see the whole thing. It is also quite light so you can hang it and not worry about it falling off the wall. Not that a picture should fall off a wall. Its super easy to put your poster in, you just pop off the front glass carefully, take out the "Format" paper in it, put your picture in, carefully pop the glass back in place, hang it, and voíla! You're done! There are instructions inside if you do get stuck, this doesn't come with an easel, as its too big for that. If you are looking for a 11x17 inch frame that is inexpensive, durable, and stylish. Then this is what you should get, you'll be glad you did.

I bought the 12 pack and for 35 dollars I wasn’t sure what to expect but I’m pleasantly surprised; for what these are they are very good quality. I had bought them to gift 8x10 photos to family and I feel perfectly okay doing that because these are nice. I wanted something that basically upheld the purpose of holding the photo since that’s the real gift and was still nice to hang on the wall and good enough quality that I didn’t feel like a cheapskate. (Purchasing 12 separate frames gets expensive) These are easy to use, the purpose of these type of frames in my opinion is to showcase, when you want something good quality but it’s main purpose for you is showing off the artwork or photo. These are perfect for that. This is a great price much better quality than the frames of this style that you would usually find. I was intimidated by the front loading glass but I didn’t need to be, I did watch the video here on Amazon but I think if I hadn’t I would have been okay, I do recommend that though. These are easy to use and the glass is such good quality and they have it polished to where it won’t cut you. I really love these and if I ever need to, I will purchase again. Even though I bought these for photographs and they work perfectly I think these frames would be absolutely perfect for prints/artwork as well.

The quality of the frames was fairly good, but the glass in one of the six frames arrived broken and unusable. There was an option to return all of them or replace all of them but I only needed to return one or get a refund for one. I needed them now and didn’t want to return all of them. Also, the price was quite expensive compared to similar frames that I purchased a year ago.

First one arrived damaged. Second one was fine and looks great on my wall. It feels pretty cheap and fragile, so I doubt it would last if you changed out the picture too many times (you have to bend the frame to load the picture in) or through numerous moves. I used it to frame an old concert poster. Works great for a clean/minimalist look.

I was hesitant about these at first from seeing many reviews mention the broken glass, but I must of been very lucky - all 6 frames arrived in perfect condition, there was not a single cracked or scratched glass panel that I could see. For the price of around $30 for 6 frames (at time of purchase), it’s a pretty nice value pack. They aren’t super fancy nor heavy-duty frames but they are more than adequate for any basic framing needs. They can be hung on a wall or placed on a tabletop (using the included plastic stand piece). I bought these so I could frame and hang some art prints I recently purchased (to display without breaking the bank). Will possibly update later with photos when my prints finally arrive.

Para lo que cuestan están increíbles, le marco casi no se ve, cosa que a mi me encanta porque pasa desapercibido. He pedido mas desde mi primera compra y no he tenido problemas con ninguno, y ya tengo mas de 2 años con los primeros que compre.

Cheap, thin plastic frame. Not the quality I expected for the price.
