GB eye Contemporary Wooden Oak Picture Frame - 12" Record Sleeve - 31.5 x 31.5cm

The frames are a good size for my vinyl covers, but one of them is damaged, there's a crack in the middle of the plastic frame, and whoever cracked it tried to cover it with Sellotape. The frames is meant to be part of a music art show that I'm doing which is beginning a day after the delivery was made, so I would like a replacement for the crack one.

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.

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.

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

These frames are simple and beautiful. They come well packaged and have handy holes drilled in the top of the back of them for hanging.Highly recommended.

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!

No backing board and not glass, blurry plastic with lots of scratches
