I have several puzzles by this brand in my collection, and wasn’t sure what they’d be like- plenty of boxes claim “Premium!” or something similar, but the quality leaves a lot to be desired. I’m happy to say this one soundly deserves the praise (the box says High Quality Puzzle). The pieces are nice and thick, fit well together (but not tight enough to lift it entire) and have a lovely linen surface texture. In fact, once I had a good amount of the puzzle assembled, I kept running my hands over it just for the feel. You’d think a spread of vegetables, seeds and legumes would be boring, but I actually liked the different visual textures and colors, and the array of circles across the picture, with odd shapes like the avocado and pomegranate here and there. The hardest part was the broccoli head!
It’s definitely a puzzle I’d enjoy doing again, and a brand I will now keep my eye out for. On par with Ravensburger in my opinion.
