Ravensburger The Craft Cupboard Puzzle 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle for Adults – Every piece is unique, Softclick technology Means Pieces Fit Together Perfectly

This puzzle is great, very high quality. Would recommend this brand to all who appreciate a good puzzle.

I love any Colin Thompson puzzle, and this one was particularly fun to do! We put the puzzle together without looking at the picture and were absolutely delighted with the finished picture. We left it together for a couple of weeks just to be sure that we had seen everything in the puzzle. We have completed 11 other puzzles with Colin Thompsons art work, and this one is one of our favorites. And Ravensburger puzzles are always a high quality product.

I liked the complexity of the overall graphic image. It was fun to work on. only downside was that the we finished the puzzle in 4 days. The same fun graphics allowed for building the puzzle in patches and then assembling.

Lovely fun puzzle. Colin Thompson’s artistry is so fun with his little surprise characters popping up here and there. I was lucky in that all the pieces were there in my puzzle, but I did have two extra duplicate pieces around the little red barn in the upper left corner area. I know that means someone else is missing them. :-(

After getting a few generic puzzles I went to work on finding a good puzzle maker. Ravensburger is highly recommended by many websites. Id say its fair. The pieces are thick, printing/photos excellent, the size and shape are really nice. What Ive found though is at least 2-4 pieces in every brand new box had cutting imperfections. Sometimes the tops layer is already coming up, sometimes the bottom layer is peeled away. Other pieces the cardboard is just plain bent. Randomly we may receive a poster inside the box of a complete puzzle so my wife and I can both reference something (poster + box) but most of the time it does not contain one. Weve order 6 puzzles and because each box has had quality issues I cant imagine Ill every buy a Revensburger again.

This puzzle is delightful to work! I like the way the pieces lock together giving a more sturdy picture face as you work. All across the “cupboard shelves” are small “items” , mice, dangling thread and pictures that are cute to find. It is not difficult to complete, but some areas of the picture are more challenging than others. I am planning on purchasing another in this series

I, too, love it when a poster of the puzzle is included in the box. In this puzzle, issued in 2014, is it, but it is small because the artists bio is included, and that steals horizontal space from the picture. I discovered that you can search for the puzzles(s) on the Ravensburger website and download a larger color landscape poster, about 8.5x11. This option is only helpful for those with a color printer unfortunately. I also hate it when Ravensburger teases us by obscuring the picture on the box cover with little Ravensburger doo-dads. But I got used to it. There are some miniscule pictures of the puzzle along the side edges of the box that reveal the missing bits. That all said, Ravensburger is an outstanding puzzle publisher. The color reproduction is hi-rez, the subject matter is interesting, the tiles are quality material and slip together smoothly, and there are always degrees of challenge. That being said (again) I avoid the Ravensburger puzzles from Target that come in an 8-inch by 8-inch square box. Ravensburger tells me that they have an exclusiver arrangement with Target that permits Target to sell these puzzle versions. The quality of the reproduced illustration seems pooer (to me), and made working this Target version frustrating. But--the Target versions, when available, seem to be half the cost.

It’s a great puzzle. Good color and sturdy pieces. The only problem is the picture sent to guide you is way too small. Puzzle is detailed and the picture isn’t big enough to see the details.

This puzzle subject matter is very busy and the smaller pieces made it a challenging puzzle.

I didnt rate sheerness because I dont know what that means in the context of a jigsaw puzzle. This puzzle has a lot of detail and great fun to assemble. This is my 1st 1000 piece Ravensburger and I found the pieces a bit thinner than their 500 piece but still higher quality than most other. Thoroughly enjoyed and highly recommend for anyone who likes puzzle detail and the Ravensburger quality.
