It has plastic legs to angle the screen which looked fragile in the images, but seem sturdy in use. The frame fits around the back edge making it seem more like a tablet and less likely to be damaged by handling. It can be assembled in landscape, portrait, upright or upside down. As shown on the website, there is no protection for the Raspberry Pi, but access to all the ports is fine and fitting hats is simple. I have used nylon screws and additional hex risers to secure my DAC/ADC hat. Mine is in landscape and upside down to avoid the power and HDMI cables tilting the display. The Pi software corrects the screen orientation. The feet provide just enough resistance on a slippery surface to use the touch-screen feature. The safety film on the acrylic parts was hard to remove, but the finish is mirror perfect. All in all, you would not want to use the display without this stand.

It's a very nice and compact frame. No part of the frame covers the front of the display since it's all secured from mounting holes on the back side. This means that there's a really nice looking red "depth" to the frame when you view it from the side. In fact, I'd highly recommond the red frame because it makes a nice accent and doesn't just look like a plain black box behind your finished project. Assembly is easy but slightly unintutive. But the images in the how-to guide make the process clear as day.

I really like this frame. It was easy to assemble. If you want to fit your Pi to the back of the screen you might need a 90degree USB-C adapter plug as the USB power lead will upset the balance a bit. Other than that, not complaints at all. Recommend you have the Pi set up before you fit to the back of the screen as the frame restricts access to the SD card slot.
