I was looking for a digital picture frame as a gift for a senior. Wanted the "traditional" 4:3 aspect ratio, no touchscreen, no Wifi, simple to set up and use, and with a wood frame. This was one of very few frames I could find that fit the bill, and I was leery about buying it after reading some of the less than stellar reviews. But for the price I thought I would give it a try. The frame arrived packaged well and in excellent condition. No instructions needed, as the on-screen instructions are self-explanatory with intuitive navigation. It has all the cropping and image quality settings necessary to make your photos look their best whatever their size. And a wide selection of creative transition effects for slideshow mode. It also has time and date and an auto on/off timer, which is not advertised. I had no problem configuring photo stores on either a USB flash drive or SD card. Some photos that were very large or saved in a strange format did not display properly, but reducing their size and/or resaving in JPG solved those problems. Overall very happy with the purchase so far. It will make a great gift!
