Some acrylic options are described as extra-thick 'block' frames made from two 11.5 mm panes bonded together to form a 23 mm solid block. These are offered in multiple sizes for a freestanding, 'super thick' look.
Strong magnets—either at the corners or built into the panes—secure photos between acrylic or wood pieces. The panes typically slide apart or pull away, so replacing photos is quick and easy.
Do not use glass cleaner on acrylic. Instead wipe the acrylic panes with water or a soft, clean cloth to avoid damage and maintain clarity.
Reviewers frequently praise the cute, attractive design and report that the magnets are strong enough to hold papers reliably.
Extra-thick block construction (solid acrylic panes) or a solid wood base are described as allowing frames to rest firmly on counters and stand independently without an easel.
