Aluratek - 8" LCD Digital Photo Frame - Black

I purchased this frame because I have another larger Aluratek Frame that I love at home (14 Inch model). This one is for my office cubicle and is the perfect size. I loaded up some great family pictures on my cameras SD card and inserted into the SD card slot and the auto slideshow began. It's that easy. I love the random effects of the slide show and the crisp brilliant colors this thing puts out. I cannot believe the quarlity for the money and am very happy with my purchase. Highly recommend for those looking for nice and easy. I've looked at several other 8 Inch frame model and I beleive this one tops the list in my oppinion.

I followed the directions and tried 3 different outlets, but the frame would not turn on. I called Aluratek support and they told me to return it to Best Buy. He thought it was a wiring issue inside the frame. At Best Buy, I wanted to exchange the frame, but they wouldn't let me. She said I had to do it online. The problems is that I ordered a memory card along with the frame in order to meet the free freight. Now I have to pay for shipping if I want another frame! That is terrible customer service!! I guess I'll return the memory card when it arrives since I don't have a frame to put it in. :(

I just purchased this so I don't know about it's reliability. However, I do not like the fact that it has no built-in memory, which I assumed it would have, and does not come with a data transfer cable. Not only does this make it difficult to use, it also required me to purchase these items separately. The Quick Start guide is not very informative and there is no User Manual for this model on the company's website although there are manuals for other similar models.

Order and delivery process went very well. Picture is of very good quality. The set up process is very easy. Only feature missing is a method of turning the frame on and off without unplugging. Grand kids love to look at family pictures and see themselves as they explain what they are doing in the picture. This is our second picture frame and has become a focal point in our kitchen.

We've been looking for a photo frame for my son's graduation party. We picked one up from Kohl's and another from Best Buy. They were both low quality and the picture quality was very poor. I found this photo frame on the Best Buy website, and knowing that if we didn't like it, we could return it to any Best Buy store. Turns out we like everything about this picture frame. Excellent picture quality.

I had to purchase this online since they did not sell them in store near me. This was a gift for my Mother's birthday. She is not too tech savvy, so I loaded a SD memory card with the pictures, that way she could just slide it in the digital photo frame, power it up, and ta-da! She loves it and has it on all day, every day. A great gift for storing all those memories!

Very simple to setup but the included documentation did not give any details on supported image formats or if/how the files should be stored on the memory card. I just copied all the images directly to the root of an SD card and it seemed to like it just fine. The image in very nice bright. My biggest criticism is that the power cord sticks out past the side of the frame instead of having a right-angle plug-in to keep the cord invisible behind the frame.

Overall this is a very good picture frame. The quality is adequate and the pictures are very clear. It was easy to setup, its pretty much plug and it was ready. The only thing I don't like about it is each time you turn it off, the slide show goes back to the first picture, it would be nice if you turn it off and turn it back on, that it would continue from where it left off.
