IKEA EDSBRUK Frame (12x16)

I tried the IKEA EDSBRUK to see if I could make the Bloomin8 blend into a specific decor, and it mostly works—but it’s not plug-and-play. The aspect ratio pushed me into a custom mat, and adding glass introduced glare that made the e-ink look worse, so I’d only go this route if you really need the IKEA style.

Pros

+Easy way to match existing decor with a common IKEA frame style
+Overall size can work with the Bloomin8 display

Cons

-Requires a custom mat to preserve full view due to aspect ratio
-Glass adds glare and reduces visibility
-Extra cost and effort compared to using the included Bloomin8 frame
