MayBee Deep Brood Beehive Frames with Wax Foundation,10 Pack Honey Bee Frames with 100% Beeswax Coated Food Grade Foundation Sheets, 9-1/8-Inch(Yellow)

These MayBeeframes came unassembled with 20 side supports (one for each side), 10 toprails, 10 bottom rails, & 10 prewaxed foundation sleeves & plenty of nails. Assembly waseslf-explanatory, though there were enclosed instructions with pictures. It was quick & very easy! I used wood glue, a ryobi brad nailer, 1 1/2" brads (instead of the enclosed nails) to put them together. But, a person could easily use a hammer & the nails provided to assemble them. They all fit together perfectly with no warping, or misfitting pieces. It was too easy! The wax foundations are very wax-y. I bought the yellow waxed ones. Compared to others I have previously purchased from amazon, the wax coverage is better. You can feel there's a good coating & you can actually smell the wax when you open the box. Can't wait for the new tenants to move in! Total time spent assembling 10 frames: <30 minutes. Skill level: Novice. Finished product: Excellent! Will purchase again.

They fit great in the large langstroth brood box. They do seem to be coated in beeswax, which supposedly attracts the bees, but I have yet to actually use it since I am just starting beekeeping, although ive done my fair amount of research Cons: -The assembly instructions are not exactly clear, but its no rocket science -some frames crack at the moment of nailing them together. You could essentially just glue them together, but keep in mind that these things become quite heavy when the bees do their job of filling it. I still have to test their sturdiness when full, but alterations can be made accordingly if necessary, after all its wood and its very easy to work with

Very quick and easy to assemble. We had to replace several frames in our current hive and these were exactly what we needed. Once together they felt pretty sturdy.

Easy to put together fits good

Some assembly required. Everything fit together well. I started to nail the frames together without predrilling holes and it worked but due to the nature of wood, nails didn't always want to go in straight. I then got out my drill with a small bit and predrilled all of the holes. This worked out much better and was faster in the end. I had a large quantity of brads which I used instead of the nails provided. No issue with what was provided, i just had the brads handy. The frames fit in my hives nicely.
