Funnybox Red Kimono Beauty Paintings by Haruyo Morita- Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles 1000 Piece for Teens and Family

I ordered this puzzle for my mother because I liked the picture and thought maybe the organizer that you use in the box to separate pieces would be nice. The box was damaged, so its good I wasnt giving it as a gift. I was unsure if I would like wooden puzzle pieces. It turns out I do not. The puzzle picture itself is pretty though and the puzzle arrived sooner than expected. The organizer pieces were a little bent, so not perfect. This is why I gave a low rating for giftability. I would be sorry if I sent this to someone and it arrived this way. As it is, it gives my mother a pretty puzzle to put together and she didnt have to wait to replace the puzzle (I did not attempt to get a different puzzle due to damage since what I wanted was a puzzle right away for my mom).

This is probably the nicest quality puzzle I’ve ever bought. The pieces are made from balsa wood (remember those little planes in a package that you assembled that was made out of that thin wood veneer?) instead of cardboard so it feels sturdy and the image won’t delaminate when you take the puzzle apart. The box also included a nice separator made of the same wood material so you can sort your pieces right in the box.

This was a beautiful wooden puzzle. It is nice it is wooden because you can move groups of pieces without them falling apart. There are also hints on the back with letters of the alphabet, which makes it a bit easier. I enjoy puzzles that have the letters on the back. But unfortunately, four of my pieces had very narrow pieces broken off. I still very much enjoyed doing the puzzle, and you can hardly see the little missing squares.

This is such a beautiful puzzle. It is made of really sturdy, durable materials. We thoroughly enjoyed putting it together.

Very good puzzle with a nice large poster and alphabet letters on the back to help complete it.

I was not missing pieces like some reviewers. The picture is beautiful, but the scale is different from the picture. Thank goodness they have the regions marked on the back of the pieces - some of them are so similar, it would be impossible to put them together, otherwise! Some of the pieces are a little difficult to fit, I really had to push hard to get them in there. I liked that it came with a large print of the puzzle, nicely packaged in a mesh bag. This one came in a standard cardboard box (the other one I bought just had a label slapped on the package). After i finished and tried to disassemble, I had a good laugh - it rolled up completely, without even popping a seam! More difficult to take apart than put together. We quickly learned that, by taking large chunks and putting them back in the bag, we could shake the bag and it would help separate them without destroying them.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed assembling this puzzle. The quality of the real wood pieces is excellent and the variation of puzzle pieces is just right without being crazy. We received another puzzle from a different vendor and it was instant garbage, very cheap and a waste of money. This puzzle is excellent and plan on saving for the future to do again and again. We are also going to order other puzzles from this manufacturer when they are available. Its been a long time since we were so happy with a puzzle.

This is a beautiful puzzle. The fact the picture is bonded to a thin piece of wood is interesting. The pieces come in a pink fine mesh bag instead of plastic, making it a lovely gift. If you sort the pieces by the letters on the back you end up with 8 smaller puzzles of about 125 pieces each - making this faster to do than if you ignore the letters. I went with sorting by letters and did the puzzle in 24 hours. If you want more of a challenge sort the conventional way. This is one I will keep and do again. By the way - no missing pieces!

This was my first wooden puzzle. It was very well-made and the pieces fitted together well. The letters A-H on the back made it easy to separate the puzzle into groups and work a section at a time. The colors are vibrant and the finished puzzle was beautiful....got many good comments on it. I enjoyed working on this puzzle very much and would highly recommend it!

Weve never put together a wooden puzzle. Some pieces required a firm push to get in, but mostly the pieces went in easily. One piece came separated from its backing, but we glued it back together with a glue stick. No problem. It is a beautiful puzzle, comes in a pink mesh bag, and has blank balsa wood to fix broken pieces if needed. There is a bit of puzzle dust/tiny wood sheddings, but not a problem. It isnt too hard or too easy. There were no missing pieces. I have found with all our puzzles if there is a missing piece, we write the seller, NOT AMAZON, and the sellar always mailed us a new puzzle.
