I liked this product except a couple of the coasters were scratched when I got them. They ended up turing out nice when I got the right size picture to fit.

I received these as a mother's day gift and was very happy with them. They do have a few smudges/scratches which might bother you if you are very particular. However I found once I put my photos inside, I hardly noticed these.
My photo printing software prints a 5.5Cm X 4.5Cm print which I found worked perfect in these coasters. I cut around the print with the 7Cm X 5Cm template that came in one of the coasters. This left a very small boarder (.25Cm) on 2 sides of picture, which doesn't show once inserted into the coasters. In the other direction (7Cm length), I left no boarder on one side, and a 1.5Cm boarder on the other side. This centered the photos perfectly, and left a long strip that extended out far enough that I can easily grab hold of it and remove the photos to replace them with new ones. It seems to work equally well with vertical or horizontal photos. This method also seems to eliminate the problem of the photos moving around inside the coasters. I thought it might be difficult to get the right size photos and get them centered, but it didn't take me long to get this figured out.
I take lots of photos, and this is a unique way to display some of them.

I was looking for a very unique gift to "personalized" for an artist/photographer friend. I bought several sets. One set I filled with black & white photos, the other color. The artist has actually spread these coasters throughout their home, i.e. one under drinking glass in bathroom, several on end table in guest room. These are well made and make a great presentation. Also used as office gift and filled with co-workers photos as memento. I will purchase more of these as need arises!

5 seconds after removing these from the box I have already decided they're never going on my coffee table. First, the "wood" holder is badly chipped and there are bits of black paint all over the coasters. But worse, the coasters themselves (which are tools meant to protect the finish of a table, if I'm not mistaken) have a metal backing with a fairly sharp edge underneath where the photo goes. It doesn't take a genius to recognize that within a few days of regular use that metal edge would cause all sorts of damage to a table much worse than a ring of moisture ever would, despite the tiny rubber feet on the bottom. As a test I found that I was easily able to shave the finish off a corner of an old table with no effort at all. Glad I only paid $10 since I'm sure I'll never get my money back.

I would give these 0 stars if I could.

It is pretty difficult to get the photos in & out of these and if you drop them or hit them together at all, the sides will chip and due to the nature of the glass, fixes are easily seen.

I would not recommend these for a house with children or where things get dropped at all!
