The gold trim makes them look nice. Quick to assemble & hang. I didn't really like the very flexible plastic "glass". But once they were on the wall you didn't notice that anymore. Plus side: You will never need to worry about breaking the "glass"!
These are perfect for kids' certificates because there is no glass. But the cardboard in the back is so flimsy that it feels like it will fall apart. If they put thicker cardboard in the back they would be great.
