GB eye FMALA1BK Black Album Frame, 31.5x31.5cm, Wood

What you see is what you get. Wasn’t expecting it to be the fanciest thing in the world but with a lack of backing board, makes displaying your albums art (and vinyls) a lot harder and you risk damaging the album art itself. Wouldn’t recommend would get better value for money from a frame from IKEA

I wanted to buy some frames to display some of my favourite albums on my wall, and as I'd previously bought one of these from a high-street retailer and thought it was acceptable I bought the other three I needed from Amazon.First things first, they're not "quality" wood. The frame is lightweight and is probably made of MDF or something similar. They're black all round and look perfectly fine hanging on a wall, but don't expect ebony for the price you're paying. The "glass" is a sheet of perspex-type plastic, covered on both sides with a protective film which you remove, and is held in place by some metal strips which you bend back to insert your record, then bend them back again to secure it in place. They work fine, and my four frames now hold both single and double albums, sleeves with the records inside. Annoyingly one of the plastic "glass" sheets I received has a small crack in it, which is visible despite the album behind it.Hanging the frames comes with an issue. The frames have pre-drilled holes which are fine for hanging them on a nail or a screw, but annoyingly the hole is not centered, so the frame hangs on an angle! Of course you can drill your own holes, or use hooks and wire (not supplied), or do what I did and use some Command picture hanging strips which work OK.So all in all, they do the job acceptably, look fine, but the couple of flaws (cracked "glass", non-central hanging holes) mean they're just OK for me.

Works exactly the same as a normal photo frame with metal tabs keeping the 12 inch vinyl in place.On the back it has a small hole to hang the frame.I already had a screw in the wall, the head of the screw did not fit in the frame's hole.Hole approx: 7mmI just set the lip of the frame ontop of the screw it sits fine. Rather than to take a drill to the hole and make it larger.The perspex screen looks ok it has a screen protector on both sides you have to peel off.Took seconds to fit and hang , you will spend more time deciding which vinyl to frame than doing this.

Overall it is a great product however I found that it is slightly too large for my vinyls which means it has a slight gap between the frame and the vinyl! However if you have some card or whatever you can easily hide the gaps!

A number of years ago there was a shop in Ashton Under Lyne that sold relatively cheap household goods. They sold picture frames for 12" Album Sleeves for a mere £2 each.I bought this disappointing piece of tat for five times that price.There is no backing board.It's not a glass front to the frame- is nasty flexible plastic that looks as cheap as it most definitely is.The wooden frame is stapled together in a clumsy manner-the whole thing look like it was made by somebody who was in colossal hurry and a (not so) secret hatred of record sleeves.not only would I not recommend- i would avoid this product as though it were a pit infested with vipers and the bubonic plague....TL:DR- no even fit for firewood.

Just what I needed to hang and display and Limited Edition signed Album.Good quality, stylish and easy to use/hang.Currently hung in my office but as it is neutral it matches most decor.

Disgusted! I am disgusted that this item is for sale at £15! I am embarrassed and ashamed for the people who have produced this. I am livid that amazon would sell such a thing on its site! £15!!!! 4 pieces of MDF wrapped in plastic, 1 piece of perspex and 6 metal pins. I estimate that the cost of the item is less than £1.00! Not even a piece of wood as a backing! I would have sent it back in a split second but had committed to using it as a present, putting my mothers 1963, 'With the Beatles', vinyl album in a white frame. No fixtures on the rear for hanging. It is complete and utter rubbish, but I am also ashamed that it is made in the UK, is this is best we can do? It weighs less than 1KG in total, everything about is cheap!GB eye LTD - you should be ashamed of yourselves, you are stealing from people selling this junk!
