Customer Reviews

Yes you can cover the adapter
I just wanted to address a problem that was mentioned in the other reviews. The AC adapter can be plugged in to the unit and the cover can be closed. It isn't detailed in the instructions, but there is a (very) subtle hole for the cord to go through in the lower left of the cover.

This way your AC adapter isn't hanging down like a giant black box, but is tucked neatly away inside the frame. The only drawback I see immediately for this product is that some photos are cropped, as another reviewer mentioned. I intend to use that person's fix to address the issue.

Gave it as an Xmas present but it wouldn't work.
It looks nice, but it didn't work. The powercord arrangement is a joke. You have to unscrew the back and screw it back up again. The cords are about 6 inches long.

Great Frame for the price
I purchased two of these, one for myself and one for my daughter. Was counting on the reviews being accurate, and they are! I am very pleased with my purchase.

The random is not totally random, and it does repeat the the third picture back quite often, and if you have a large number of photos loaded, it takes a while to get to all of them due to the repeating. I may change it to play in order to see if I like that better.
It takes some fiddling to get the adapter in, but I found that when I turned the black box that goes in the compartment over, it fit fine.

The quality of the frame itself is surprisingly good. The miter joints are excellent, and you will be proud to display this in your home or office.
