Customer Reviews (4.8 / 5 · 5 reviews)

Owen ★★★★★

The rigid plastic feels sturdy and chemical-resistant, just as described—no warping even after multiple uses. It’s the perfect size for my 12x16 prints without being too bulky.

Hannah ★★★★★

I've been using this tray for a few weeks and the hard, chemical-resistant plastic feels really durable. The white surface makes it easy to see where my prints are during development.

Grace ★★★★★

The flat bottom and smooth edges make it easy to slide prints around without snagging, and the chemical-resistant plastic feels like it'll hold up for years. I've been using it for 11x14 prints and it fits them perfectly with room to spare.
