12x16 Front Loading Frames Are Great!

Kathy October 16, 2026

12x16 Front Loading Frames Are Great! I needed larger frames and wondered how they would work out also. They are super! I do "leaf framing" and wanted to test them out. For leaf framing you do not use any glues etc. and need to snap the frames on quickly! They worked fantastic!

Still one of the best

Heidi May 14, 2026

I've used these simple frames in many sizes for decades. It's great to be able to find the odd size now and then for frraming newspaper pages and articles as well as photographs. The best part is ease of use. Just gently pop the glass out on two corners with your thumbs and pop it back in after inserting your picture.

Nice, sturdy poster frame

Susan October 20, 2026

These are very nice poster/picture frames. It's easy to load your poster and easy to hang. They feel sturdy as the frame itself is all one piece. The glass pops out easily from the front for loading your image.

Good Quality Poster Frames

Val October 30, 2026

I am very happy with the quality of these poster frames. The glass is clear and sturdy, and the frames are strong. The frames make my posters look nice and are not bulky or cheap looking. They fit in nicely with any decor.

Good deal and easy to use

MARCYVK July 16, 2026

I have bought some inexpensive posters from T—u. I regularly change out decor to suit my ever-evolving artistic styles. I was thrilled when I seen WM have the size I needed for a very respectable price! The only problem I'll have is making sure I have an idea where the nail is for hanging. These are lightweight and good looking. Only I'm going to know how little I paid. I'm planning on making a noodle wall for my dining area and some digital prints for the bedroom that has just been renovated with Better Homes and Gardens. WM you keep selling stuff that allows creatives to decorate like I have a billion dollars!

Mainstays 16x20 Picture Frame

anonymous August 15, 2026

It's perfect! I got this amazing poster by Josh Blaney shown in the picture. This frame is great quality, easy to remove glass and insert your picture, and it's on sale right now [08/15/26] for $6.97. I left a review for the poster on Walmart.com as well. I thought we could edit reviews, that's why this pic isn't in the other review. Mainstays makes high quality items for your home. I definitely recommend trying Walmart brands before the expensive name brand item. You'll be impressed just like I am!

Real Glass pane instead of the plastic junk!

Kelsey August 8, 2026

I only purchase frames with actual glass panes as the quality is so much nicer than the plexiglass ones. Great size for the price. I don't mind the black frame, but it'd be nice if they made other colors to better suit certain decor. Appearance is nice and professional looking with the smaller trim to the edge versus the larger faux wood style. Easy to pop the glass out by the corners.

Nice Inexpensive Frame

AdoptDontShop August 19, 2023

The Mainstays Frontloading Frame comes with easy straightforward instructions on how to load one of your favorite prints. The black low profile frame does not have a “plastic” look. Simply pop the glass up, load your photo, then snap back into place. There are two hanging eyes on the back to mount on the wall horizontal or vertical. The only downsides for me, no included stand to display other than the wall and doesn’t seem like enough room for a mat so I used a feaux mat in the frame. I do like the clean minimalist design.

Broken glass

Bryce September 10, 2026

I've used these frames for years and loved them. The the last ones I ordered came in a two pack and both times I tried to put the glass back in the front. The glass broke. I've never had issues with the glass breaking before and all of a sudden I can't even get the glass to go back in the frame without it shattering.
