Everything is OK. does the job.

Let me just say I was pissed when I opened my package and picked it up. For thirty doors, this quality is extremely poor. To be honest if I rated this myself I would be willing to pay no more than $20. This is not real wood and not even a good imitation of wood. What it was was textured chipboard with an acrylic inlay, the backing was literally cardboard. This insert is very easy to scratch, it is very easy to leave fingerprints. Dust not easy to remove. I got fingerprints on mine within seconds of opening it, cleaned it and some damn crumb I couldn't see scratched it permanently. In fact, the teeth on this suction cup itself will scratch the acrylic, so it's awful they haven't found a workaround. I was going to put a star, smash it, angrily return it, but figured why the hell not try putting my poster in anyway. The picture explains exactly why I kept it. Despite the disappointing and cheap quality, once you put a print in it you really couldn't tell without looking closely. I think this piece of gray and white really covered up how much of an imitation it was. In fact, I finally came to terms with the fact that all I needed was a way to protect my printed poster, to hang it up without thumbtacks or tape to damage it. My print didn't need an overly fancy frame that looked better than a piece of art. I just needed a way to hang the paper with a frame suitable for printing and protect it from damage. As shocking as it was to me, it just looked gorgeous in the frame once shown. Could it be that the quality of my shot is so bad that you just frame it with your eyes and focus on the art? I think that's the point, so I save ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ
