Test result preview
The picture frame product from the Goods & Gadgets brand is a set of seven picture frames.
The frames are available in different colours and designs . The manufacturer deliberately chose the colours grey, white and black , as these are compatible with any type of home furnishings and match any interior style. In addition to the set of seven picture frames, there are also the “Family” and “Love” decorative variants.
A special feature of this product is that the picture frame collage is already prefabricated – so the buyer receives the frames in a visually attractive arrangement and only has to fill them with photos before hanging them up.
In practical tests , the frames scored particularly well thanks to their beautiful design and good workmanship.
This product is a visually appealing furnishing product that is ideal for lovingly incorporating memories captured on photos as a decorative element.
Advantages
- Already prefabricated collage
- High-quality workmanship
- Uncomplicated attachment to the wall
Disadvantages
- Tiny, barely visible processing defect on the frame

The picture frames from GOODS+GADGETS were subjected to an extensive practical test . The product was tested for its suitability on the wall and on a sideboard .
In terms of ease of installation, it should be noted that the frames can be hung up very quickly and without any problems . This is due to the fact that it is a collage of frames, so that distances on the wall do not have to be laboriously measured.
Changing the pictures is also very easy: no special tools are required and the pictures can be replaced in seconds if necessary.
This product is available in black, grey or white – this ensures that the picture frames fit perfectly with a wide variety of furnishing styles and colour schemes.
Another positive aspect to emphasise is the high-quality finish of the picture frames. There are no sharp edges or corners that could cause injury.
A tiny manufacturing defect was visible on the frame of the product, a small peg that was protruding from the frame. This could be carefully removed without leaving any residue.
In the practical test , this product was particularly impressive due to its quick installation, attractive design and good workmanship.

On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the product with an average of 4.1 stars. In some cases, there is criticism that the back of the frame is not optimally finished. On the other hand, the quality and appealing design as well as the high holding power are emphasised positively . In our practical test , we were able to confirm that the quality of the picture frames is good and the design is appealing . We were unable to substantiate the criticism levelled by consumers about the less than perfect finish on the back of the frame.
Prices of up to €17.99 are charged on the Internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €12.99 . The picture frame from GOODS+GADGETS is therefore currently in the middle price segment with a price of €14.99. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
