Picture / Poster Frame, Smooth Grain Finish, 2" Wide, Dark Brown (FM74DKW)

I purchased this frame after reading 3 glowing 5 star reviews. What each reviewer failed to mention is that this frame is nothing more than an MDF frame base with a faux distressed wood grain sticker on top. If you look at the frame, the "wood" finish is simply tape placed over the MDF. From a distance it looks great, as shown in the picture. However, up close and to the touch it look and feels cheap. This frame also has an acrylic (read: plexiglass) window, not glass...but at least this information is provided in the product description.

Additionally, this frame shows a "list price" of $76.99, so you really think you're getting a bargain on a high quality frame. Not only is it not made of high quality materials, but the frame lists for $22.99 to $26.99 on the Craig Frames manufacturer website (on which you can also use a coupon code)...so not much of a bargain at all!

When I contacted the seller about their false advertising, they told me, "On Amazon the list price is the suggested retail price that Amazon requires us to post." They offered to provide a refund if I shipped the frame back, however would not compensate me for return shipping. So essentially, I'd be paying roughly $10-$15 in shipping for a product that I would no longer have.

The reason I gave this frame 2 stars is that the workmanship of the frame is actually quite decent and it looks nice from a distance. However, the quality of materials, advertising policies and customer service are severely lacking.

You would be hard pressed to find a better frame for the price. Please note, that the frame does not come with glass, but instead Plexiglas. The frame is well constructed, looks amazing, and the kit that comes with it has everything you need to hang it with just a cordless screwdriver. I will be buying more frames from them in the future!

Nice solid frame. Finish is slightly distressed just enough to give it character without looking cheap. Looks fantastic with a black mat. Good deal for the price!

I wanted real wood frames. These frames seem like real wood by the item description and pictures. I was very dissappointed to find that they are particle board and wood veneer NOT REAL WOOD. Amazon should encourage the company, Craig Frames, to disclose exactly what the frames are made of (i.e. "These frames are made from particle board with wood veneer.") Buyer beware.
