UBeesize 1000 Pieces Jigsaw Puzzles -Old Town Roofs at Sunset- Puzzle Game for Adults and Families, 30 * 20 inch HD Quality Puzzle Toys Gift Set for Adults, Boys and Girls

Puzzle had very little puzzle dust, and the pieces fit together securely. It was easy to move small sections of the puzzle from place to place while working on it. Lettered from A-I on the back, which I like, as it lets me do the puzzle as a whole or break it into 9 different puzzles of 111 pieces to maximize that "placing the last piece" satisfaction. Came with a full-size poster. Disassembling the puzzle was easy to do without damaging the pieces. I do around 50-60 puzzles a year, and can be a bit picky about puzzle quality, but I wouldn't hesitate to buy this brand again.

My wife and I did a lot of puzzles of this size (1000+ pieces) during the Lockdown to the point that we were ordering them six at a time. After a while, you get to know which manufacturers were in it for the quick buck during Covid, which were trying to make a decent puzzle, and which ones *love* to make good puzzles.This is our first UBeesize, and we can tell -- they love to make a good puzzle.The puzzle we ordered ("Summer Town") is a standard 20x27-inch 1000-piece puzzle suitable for "adult" puzzleteers.The things we liked:** The puzzle image was beautifully printed. The scene -- a rendering of a gorgeous painting, tended to be vague, even in the foreground, but this was how the painting was done, not how it was digitally transferred. We thought it would be more interesting if, as a scene of a European(?) city, there were people in it, but that's more a quibble than a comment.** The pieces are smoothly cut from laminated carboard that is both rigid and tough with no traces of feathering, warpage, or delamination. Pieces that are carefully but unsuccessfully "tried" a couple dozen times still manage to keep their integrity.** Like most puzzles, the pieces are enclosed in a sealed plastic bag to cut down on piece-loss and aid handling during packaging. One of the things we've noticed as a guide for measuring the care used in manufacturing, packaging, and handling is how much cardboard "dust" ends up in the bag with the pieces. The more dust, the more beat up the puzzle is. There was ZERO dust in the UBeesize bag, despite that their "shaker" was very, very efficient at breaking up the pieces for shipment.** We like the "region hints" imprinted on the reverse side that allow us to *optionally* group a few dozen pieces together that we know belong together. When working a puzzle with someone else, one might hear something like, "You work on the giant sand dune, and I'll do all the interesting parts." You get the idea. Region hinting lets you optionally power through the boring parts, or in the case of "big" puzzles (3000+), finish them before pieces end up in the vacuum cleaner.** The puzzle came with a **full-size** poster 4- or 5-color printed on glossy (both sides!) heavyweight paper which was perfectly trimmed and folded. We have never seen this. This is UBeesize's pride! showing through.The only con:If you do the math, this is a 550 square-inch puzzle, the average piece covers .55 square inches, and the average dimensions are three-quarters of an inch square. At that size, we don't think this puzzle is suitable for a six-year-old, even with region hints, despite the marketing hype. Hand young children a hundred pieces of "sky" to put together without help, and we estimate that it will scar their little brains and turn them off of jigsaw puzzles long before they lose several of the pieces and experience the frustration and thwarted expectations of a puzzle that can never be completed. There's a reason that children's puzzles have up to a hundred, easy-to-identify, fist-sized pieces.A final comment: We've done Ravensburgers, good, expensive Ravensburgers, and of those, this puzzle was better in virtually every respect. You don't always get what you pay for -- but sometimes you get more.

I love this product very much! This was very hard to assemble and that's why I love it because me and my family usually finish puzzles really quick so this was definitely a real challenge. This is perfect if you want to challenge your self. A lot of people have touched the puzzle but the color hasn't faded yet! I love this product and would definitely recommend it!

I adore puzzles and won't touch anything less than 1000 pieces. This one has intricate detail that keeps it challenging. The pieces could be a little stronger, but they do not ruin the integrity of the fit in any way.

It became a beautiful frame after finishing it. The pieces are sturdy enough to complete the puzzle many times. I glued and framed, the pieces are durable enough to frame it.

This 1,000 piece puzzle is high quality in every aspect. The puzzle is housed in a very sturdy cardboard box with lift-off top. The puzzle pieces are of a nice thickness, fit together securely and snug, and have a smooth gloss-type finish. The colors in the puzzle are vibrant and the resolution of the image is sharp. The puzzle comes with a full-size poster of the image. If you find a 1,000 piece puzzle intimidating, just lay the poster down first and then build the puzzle on top of the poster – that way you can see exactly where certain colors and features belong. In addition, the backside of each puzzle piece is finished and has letters printed on them – so if you need extra help you can refer to those letters for placement. The puzzle goes together very quickly using those aids. (I personally like the challenge of putting the puzzle together without the poster and without using the letters, and just referring to the photo on the front of the box in “the old-fashioned way”.) This is a reasonable price for such a quality product. I am very pleased!

I haven't put this together yet, but it seems to be a nice puzzle. I've never had a puzzle include this before, but It has a full-size poster of the puzzle photo, I guess for you to flatten out and assemble the puzzle on top of? I guess that would certainly help locate where pieces go. One other thing I found interesting is the letters on the back of the puzzle pieces (see photos). No idea if there is rhyme or reason to the letter, i.e. all the a's at the top of the puzzle, then b's below that, etc. If so, that would also help locate the pieces. I'm a novice puzzler, so I need all the help I can get!
