Ravensburger The Greatest Show on Earth 15254 1000 Piece Puzzle for Adults, Every Piece is Unique, Softclick Technology Means Pieces Fit Together Perfectly Multi, 27 x 20

I buy A.LOT. of puzzles - and will spend more $$$ for Ravensburger because of quality control and overall quality of their puzzles. Lo and behold, today, I finished this puzzle with one duplicate piece (see first pic) and TWO MISSING PIECES overall (see second pic). Wish I could give no stars. Super bummer.

Ravensburger puzzles dont come with a larger sized printed image to go with the puzzle, like Buffalo Games puzzles do. You have to rely on the image printed on box top, which in this case the image was small, 8.25 x 11.5. Seriously? Thats a pretty small image to try to work from when dealing with a highly detailed 1000-piece puzzle. At the very least they should print the image on the box the actual size of the box top, and not smaller, as was done in this case. I would have enjoyed this puzzle more if there had been a larger print of the image that came with the puzzle to work from. Guess thats why I prefer Buffalo Games puzzles so much more than Ravensburger puzzles.

Challenging but incredibly fun. If you enjoy doing puzzles this one is a great. The lines going across give you something to start with in addition to the frame and the objects, people and animals had me smiling.

Well, I am at the end of this puzzle, and lo and behold this one is missing a piece too, just like the first one. Funny, I bought two of these puzzles together and at the end of assembling the first one, it was a piece missing. How disappointing. I returned it, I mean, if you can’t manage to get all the pieces in the bag before you seal it, you need to get some better help, or reprogram your machines. I ordered another puzzle, before I started this second one. It’s still sealed while I worked on almost completing this one, but who the hell knows if THAT one will have all the pieces. It’s really an unsatisfactory feeling to not be able to place that last jigsaw piece. Come on Ravensburger, do better. These puzzles are too pricey not to have all the darned pieces. I will be sending this one back too. This is unacceptable. It’s. Jigsaw puzzle for goodness sake! That’s the whole game!

Missing three pieces. There weee 1000 pieces but three were duplicates. Seems to be a really common problem with this puzzle.

I bought it for a Present. The Free shipping by Seller was fantastic & puzzle was priced right

I do a lot of Ravensburger puzzles. I like Colin Thompson for the grid style with surprises. This is similar in style,maybe even better! Really enjoyed how vivid the colors were. By far my favorite of the 30+ puzzles I have done during the pandemic.

This was a great puzzle to put together! Ravensburger is by far the most superior puzzle maker Ive come across. Never an issue.

Really fun puzzle to complete. Lots of little details. The whole family joined in on this one!

This product is is the the best puzzle for fit and durability
