MANTELLO ESSENTIALS 4x6 Picture Frame Set - Black 4x6 Frames for Photos, Artwork, and Postcards - Bulk Pack of 12 Black Picture Frames with Front-Loading Glass, Vertical/Horizontal

love these frames, easy to pop the glass out to insert photos, easy to attach "stand" for horizontal or vertical display, they look great !

I'd wager very few of Mantello's customers ever have to deal with them unless it's to thank them for their exceptional product value or the unbelievable care they take insuring that product arrives to their customers in perfect condition. Now make no mistake, these picture frames are not a high end product. But the quality of materials, care in packaging and perfect description of exactly what you are getting for your money is unmatched by any retailer I’ve ever found on Amazon and I've been dealing with them for 15 years.The frames arrived inside two sturdy cardboard cartons. Inside the second carton the six frames were perfectly stacked, secured and protected by shrink-wrap with four sturdy, heavy plastic corner pieces protecting them. As advertised, the glass panes on the frames had polished edges so as to not risk cutting a customer's hand. They were easy to use, the fit of my six prints into the 8" X 10" frames was dead on for all six pieces and they snapped back together easily and as advertised with little effort.In the future I may put the name 'Mantello' ahead of whatever household product I am searching for just to see if they manufacture it in order to give them my business. It's rare I endorse any product with a five star rating, but you can take this one to the bank. If you need some sturdy, inexpensive photo or picture frames with real glass fronts that meet ALL criteria as advertised and will arrive in perfect condition look no further.

Update: After I left an unimpressed review, the company reached out to me and offered to refund or replace the frames. I chose the replacement, and as I was in the process of returning all the extras that I had received, there was a time that I had four sets of frames in my office when I had ordered one. So the broken frame is replaced and I have spares, and thank you very much! Therefore my review is changed from 2 stars to 5.I bought these to display some lists on the wall for use by the church congregation, as the lists had previously been taped to the wall and this would look a lot nicer. They were delivered by the post office on Sunday, and when I came in on Monday I couldn't find them. I couldn't contact the post office on Monday so I contacted Amazon on Tuesday and they refunded the order so I could reorder it, and I had the order by Thursday. Yay! A star for that. I opened them and set them up, and one of them has a defect in the glass and another had a chip in the corner, so minus two stars for that. Now it's the next day and one of them keeps falling off the wall, and the frame has broken on the bottom and I had to tape it back together. Fortunately it's on the bottom where it doesn't show, but now I'm worried that it won't even last until Sunday. And I need all six of them, that's why I ordered the six-pack. I'm down to two stars, I'm not very happy with them anymore.Also, while I was writing this, one of the fellows here found the original package that was delivered on Sunday that I couldn't find, so I'll deal with returning that one next week, and thank you to Amazon for their great service (just please treat your employees better), but the quality of the frames is still questionable.

I bought this set for some autographed celebrity pictures. The price is right and I like the front loading feature. They were easy to open and I appreciate the solid black backing sheet included so my pictures were not directly up against the plastic support pieces of the rear of the frame. For me, it was a plus to have real glass versus the usual plastic.Now, I expected to need to wipe away any fingerprints or dust from packaging, but the loss of the star comes from a small, about 5mm, scratch on five of the six glass panels. I always use cotton gloves when handling such items and a micro-fiber towel for any needed cleaning. As I held each up to a bright light for cleaning, that small scratch was visible. It was very nearly in the same location on each of the five so perhaps there was some small flaw in the cutting process that carried through on each? Just a guess.Anyway, I rotated it as best as possible to have a minimal visual impact on each picture. I don't think anyone looking at them will notice...but I know they are there. LOLThe other reason for the loss of a star comes from the frames. Do not get me wrong, they are absolutely sturdy and will probably out last me, but I did notice as I was removing the glass and then inserting the picture and the glass again, that along that inner edge, the material was not perfectly smooth and ever so slightly would make both picture and glass snag. Now, I always move slowly and check for fit and finish so it was not a problem - nothing was torn or cut, etc. But if someone else was in a hurry, maybe their outcome would be different? OK, I'll accept being thought of as nit-picking. But I wanted to mention it as it could be a small potential issue for someone else.Overall, the small scratch on those five (The sixth one had a flawless glass piece) has more impact for me. Still, I am happy with these and will buy them again when I have more pictures to frame.

They look nice - I was pleased to see how nice they look considering they are plastic! The glass classes them up! They are so light, thus easy to put up on the wall!I like them! Look much better than the plastic squares I was using!

These are perfect for certificates and photos. They are easy to pop open, add your item, and snap closed. They are lightweight but look nice. 8.5x11 items fit perfectly.
