Excited

Very excited to try these but I should have ordered the heavy wax. Will on next ones.

Bees love pink frames

We got free pink brood frames at 2024 NAHBE and our bees drew out 6 frames completely in less than 2 weeks. We were feeding 1:1 sugar water. We would love to have more pink frames.

Wonderful product

Great Service!

We buy our plastic frames / foundation from Acorn and have always been happy with their quality.

Great product

wooden frames w/foundation

Your wooden frame and foundation are the BEST. I always get the heavy waxed and have never had a problem. The bees take to them right away.

Four boxes of frames spare parts

Hi the product looks great I guess. I purchased standard waxed because I will re-wax them next year before I use them . I only had one issue . I assume UPS destroyed or lost box # 2. I gave them a few days it never showed up . So I responded through the tracking email .. no response .. I sent them a email through their web site no response .. finally I called and I was told it was being worked on .. Then I called again and was told they are being shipped .. and they were .. perfect I got them. Very Happy over joyed they showed up. My only issue, I felt they knew about the issue, but I was left in the dark with the process. I was not in need of the frames so time was not a issue for me . It was just not knowing what was going on. Send a email , stuff happens, keep the customer in the loop. I give the company 99% for product , pricing but a -1% for communication. needs work .. but all in all, a great company .. Thank You Danny

Very good product

My bees draw the frame. Out perfectly I liked what the bees draw out

Great as always

I've ordered 3 cases of frames this season. Two deeps and one medium. Boxes have always shipped quickly and the prices are better than the competition. I have yet to have a plastic frame break on me and I experience less propolis than the wood frames.

Perfect Bee Acceptance of Heavy Waxed Frames

Acorn heavy waxed foundation and frames have been my most readily accepted and drawn-out resources by my bees.
Consistent material quality. No field deflection.
More usable cells than Premier foundation.
With the complete plastic frames, you have more usable rows of cells than with wood-frame inserts foundation.
Best price, so an easy choice based on durability and performance. Far less material distortion than Pierco.
I'll be back for more.

Fast shipping and great construction. I will be purchasing more

Well waxed

Sturdy for one piece frames,
I like that they offer different levels of waxing.
Saves me a lot of time to be able to buy them with a heavy wax.

On time delivery.

Everything was as I ordered. Have not done an inspection since installed, bit will as soon as I can. Will be interesting to see how they build and fill out the comb.

Excellent product

my wife and I have been keeping bees for about eight years now. We have about 30 hives. Each year the apiary grows just a little bit. Iur master Bee Keeper who assists us recommended this double dipped Acirn foundation. It worked very well and our girls were very pleased with it. Thanks!

Good quality. Bad shipping service

UPS will absolutely destroy your packages but the foundation is pretty good stuff.

Very prompt shipment. Product looks great

Love them

Our bee's love them. We have purchased a few thousand of the past 3 years. No issues other than a couple maybe 6 a little light on wax. We don't live in an area where we have beetle issues but the son in law does and beetles do hide in the indents of the frame body. They work fantastic for me. When you compare the price of other frames that charge no shipping these are still less. 5 stars here.

Excellent product, but expensive shipping

The frames arrived here in Ohio from California in a week or so. I installed them and in about 2-3 weeks they are very well drawn, some close to be complete, some less, but very even, beautiful comb. I’ve had plastic frames from another manufacturer (yellow color), and did not have such quick success! I don’t know what you do differently, but it definitely works. Price of the product is also better per unit. My only complaint was the shipping cost, which offset the total price quite a bit. But it was worth it. I guess, it’s a total winner for someone who can pick them up locally in CA. Thank you!

I initially had a problem with an order, they took care of the problem and went above expectations. since then customer service has been outstanding.

Drone Comb Honey Supers

For me the large cells always require more time to get drawn out than standard cell size, but after that the mediums are amazing as honey-only frames above a queen excluder. And after all, well-maintained honey super frames last a lifetime!

I prefer Acorn foundation

I've been buying only Acorn foundation since shortly after Nick had the pressing machines delivered and installed. Foundation sheets with heavy wax are my choice, and I've also used the drone cell size medium frames in honey supers. The initial quality and ease of getting combs drawn out are why I am a repeat customer. I can't even imagine what people are getting when they order plastic foundation on Amazon and I'm so glad to be able to buy Made In USA.

You can not go wrong with Acorn frames

Bees seem to build these out faster than lots of other brands

Ozawkie Bee Keeper

Great frames I did not have to wax's. Frames are like a box's of chocolate, you never know if the bees are going to like them. They love these frames!

Good frames go with maximum wax

Wish you had frames similar to Permacomb or honey super cell. People would use these exclusively….jim
