Poster frames
These frames are not top-of-the-line, but they can hold their own. The only thing is, the glass part is plexiglass, but that's okay because the frame and backing are pretty sturdy and they look great.

Great Frame for Puzzle mounting
This is a beautiful picture for puzzle makers wanting to display their favorite completed puzzle or artworks. The plexiglass cover is fixed into the frame therein providing more frame strength. I knocked the assembly rating one start because the only issue I had was the backer board, which is stiff and strong, was a very tight fit and took a little effort to remove and reinstall into the frame. If the frame maker, MCS, would reduce two edges of the backer board by about 1/16", that would allow the backer board to easily clear the installed holder clips without impacting the integrity of the clips holding power. I'm ordering more of MCS's frames to replace previously framed puzzles using frames of lesser quality and sturdiness.

For the price and quality, I’m happy. I’d buy again.
I have a bunch of old sports, movie, and music posters from the 1970s. They’ve been rolled up and stored in a cardboard tube. I finally decided to display them so I purchased several MCS Gallery Foundation Poster Frames of different sizes. I didn’t want to spend more $$$ on the poster frames than the posters are actually worth, but I did. After I received and framed the posters, I was satisfied with them. The MCS poster frames seemed to have the best quality at the most reasonable price.The packaging of the MCS poster frames was outstanding. All the shipping boxes were well-protected so there was no problem with damage or breakage.The MCS Gallery Foundation Poster Frames are NOT museum quality, but more than adequate for posters. The posters were fairly easy to insert. The only problem that I encountered was one of the posters had a sticky “gummy” residue on the inside surface of the clear cover. Luckily, I felt it before inserting the poster so I was able to wipe it off. If I hadn’t wiped off the “gummy” residue, the poster might have gotten stuck and torn if I had to reposition the poster within the frame.The MSC Gallery Foundation Poster Frames are lightweight so hanging the frames to the wall is fairly easy. If you’re in an earthquake prone area and afraid of falling debris inside your home, the MCS is light enough that it shouldn’t do too much damage if it falls off.The MSC Gallery Foundation Poster Frame has two saw-tooth hangers for vertical and horizontal hanging on the back. There is, however, NO wall hooks included for wall hanging. The wall hanging hooks have to be purchased separately.For the price and quality, I’m happy. I’d buy again.

beautiful frame
I love the frame and just ordered two more. It looks great and is easy to use, my picture doesn’t show it as well as I hoped.

Sloppy construction, INCREDIBLY terrible glue
I bought 3 of these. Outwardly the frame looks good, but, as many other reviewers have noted, the plexiglass is glued to the frame, and it's a REALLY big deal for the following reasons:First and most importantly, the factory churning these out has poor quality control. The glue is used far too liberally and not only is it visible from the front in some cases, but it also frequently completely covers the inside edges. Be warned, this WILL stick to your art piece and potentially tear and destroy it at worst, if you're not careful, or leave stains on it at best, if you are.Secondly, removing the glue is near impossible. I don't know what kind of glue it is, but it's quite literally the most tenacious gunk I've ever seen, more persistent than carpet glue. I spent weeks working in my spare time and testing different chemical and mechanical means of removing the glue. I did eventually stumble on some insights that help (which I'll share below), but in the meantime I basically destroyed one of the frames, and ended up having to completely sand and repaint it, which was not easy because a powered sander of any kind will heat the frame plastic up too much and just melt it into a giant mess.Just trust me when I say that if you're thinking about removing the glue yourself, just throw the the whole thing in the trash and buy something else. Or maybe just cover the glue up with some sacrificial paper or felt or something and forget about removing it entirely (which isn't even an option if it's showing from the front).Lastly, the frame itself is made of very light, bendy plastic. While it's durable, it has no strength. The glued-in plexiglass is actually strictly necessary for the frame to stay together. Without the glue, the frame can't even support the weight of the plexiglass and cardboard backboard, so the bottom edge of the frame will droop. Additionally, the frame's joints are not particularly strong either, and will begin to loosen after too much strain (easy to do if you've committed to removing the glue nightmare).Additionally, the plexiglass is quite soft and will readily accumulate micro-scratches, which make it look horrible under direct light. This is not really a fault of the product, but something to keep in mind. To add to my pain, I originally used a counter brush and a bristled vacuum attachment to clean dust off of the plexiglass before installing it and this was a huge mistake. I ended up having to polish both sides of all 3 sheets with both a heavy and fine scratch removing polish to rescue them. Only touch these sheets with microfiber cloths!If anyone else is as insane and hobbyless as I am and truly wants to remove the glue on their cheap frame, here's my tips:1) Prepare enough counter space with towels and microfiber cloths so that you can easily set the plexiglass down in at least 2 non-overlapping locations. Do not rely on the plexiglass standing up on its own while leaning on something. It's far too flexible for that.2) Carefully and slowly separate the plexiglass from the frame by working your way around the frame, applying firm front-to-back pressure on the plexiglass, and using a sharp box knife to slice parts of the stretched glue which will not let go of the plexiglass.3) I built a shallow trough out of cardboard, completely covered in packing tape to make it waterproof, and using hot glue to plug the ends. Then I filled it with just enough regular canola oil so that one full edge of the plexiglass sheet could be submerged enough to cover all the glue. The custom trough was necessary because I didn't have any other container long enough for the full 3 foot length of the plexiglass. For smaller sheets you could probably find some large plastic container or bag to make it work. I had to jerry-rig some support to keep the plexiglass upright and not allow it to flop over.4) Leave the glue submerged in the canola oil for a full 24 hours (yes, really). The longer you leave it the easier it will come off.5) Lay the sheet flat and wipe off the now very wet and far less sticky glue. Make sure to use a microfiber cloth, or be prepared to polish out micro-scratches. You'll probably need several cloths, because the glue will stick to them and just get right back onto the plexiglass if you're not careful. For tiny bits of remaining residue, you can use 1:10 vinegar:water and some elbow grease. Clean the residual oil and other mark off of the sheet with soapy wet cloths and a non-streaking glass/acrylic cleaning spray.6) For the glue on the frame, this is more difficult. I tried similarly leaving some canola oil in one edge at a time, but I ended up having to scrape the remaining glue residue out regardless, it's just too resilient. Any kind of more potent adhesive remover can easily leak onto the front of the frame and destroy the finish (which is why I had to completely sand and repaint one of my frames).In the end, I just found that taking a wide-bladed, sharp flathead screwdriver or a thin-bladed chisel and scraping out the glue worked the best. You literally have to scrape as hard as you can without completely breaking the frame to make this work. Basically you need to scrape away the entire surface that the glue is bonded to. If you feel any tackiness at all after removing most of the glue, just scrape more or scrape harder. The insides of the frame will end up looking like garbage, but nobody will see that part.If you're still reading, it should be obvious that none of this is worth the money you'll save by going with this $30 frame.

Beautiful frame great price
Looks like I went to Michael’s and bought a much more expensive frame. Came packed well, no damage, great quality

Low quality
One of the frames came damaged, easily come apart and I are put together very well . both frames sag when you hang them on the wall, low quality but the price was reasonable so my expectations were low.

Very good for the price
I'm very happy with this frame.I hope you guys know how expensive is framing. The quality of this item is good and the price almost ridiculously low. Of course you have to the job yourself, but if you're a bit delicate and precise, it s no hard task. The only downsides I can think of is that the plexiglass is quite reflective (we get what we pay for, no anti-reflects treatment here) the backplate is very very tight; makes it a bit hard to remove and put back in, but that s not a manipulation you should make more than once or twice. Using a small (1'') clean putty knife helped wedging and prying.I recommend this item
