"I don't have a sample of mdf I can tell you about it. Mdf is sawdusting glue that is put together in a vac and it is injected into a mold. They send it out into mold shape. I don't use mdf cause it tears up my saw. It is very difficult on the saw, it does not do well in cutting or mounting. It is something that is rather inexpensive, you get what you pay for. It is something that I chose not to carry. This is a plastic frame you have to be very delicate with it, it would break you just looking long at it. If you bang it it would chip off and break. When putting it together in the back, when we put our points in there to hold everything in it and tends to chip out and break there. It is not something that I suggest unfortunately we can not all afford real framing. So if that is all you can afford that is what you got that is what you have to do. Eventually you can move up and the cool things about a plastic frame is that you can add something to it later to dress it up. So you can take it to the frame shop and have another frame made to go over the top of it and dress it up pretty. No one would every know that was a piece of plastic underneath there and no one needs to know. "
