Buffalo Games - Charles Wysocki - The Nantucket - 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle

I have purchased this brand of puzzle before and have found them pretty good. This one however was terrible. The layers were not glued properly and the tabs were bent. I am not sure if this was a manufacturing defect or the company that provided it was negligent in its production.

Very enjoyable puzzle. It was fun to put together.

I enjoy Charles Wysocki puzzles. The only problem I had with this order is that the puzzle I received is not the puzzle in the picture above. I have many of Charles Wysocki puzzles, luckily I dont have the one I received. If I had I would have had to return it What I need to know is if substitutions are normal. I like to get the puzzle I believe I am buying.

I really enjoy putting puzzles together, especially when they area images by Charles Wysocki. His paintings are just, plain fun! I get caught up in all the activity going on, all the detail and the wonderful colors. Im always a little sad when I put the last piece in. But of course, the great thing is, I can take it apart, and put it back together again, sometime! Also, Ive never been disappointed with the quality of a Buffalo Games puzzle. Sturdy cardboard, clean cut puzzle pieces, and well printed images make putting these together a pleasure.

There is so much variety within the picture--the hotel, the cabanas, all the people, sky, ocean. I switched from one area to another rather than completing a section before moving on. The color variation of the sand made the beach do-able and not frustrating. I love Buffalo Games puzzles and love this one more than many others.

Great puzzle. Fun to put together

We knew within 20 minutes of opening the box that there was a piece missing. The first thing my husband and I do is separate all of the straight-edge (border) pieces. Just the two of us on a table that seats eight; meaning, plenty of room. No pets, no kids, no grands. After separating the border pieces, we assemble the border. Within minutes, we thought we were missing one piece BUT, sometimes, the piece is there; its just hard to see. As we progress on the puzzle, one of us will finally see the piece. Not this time. Its missing. We started the puzzle around noon on Sunday and finished it Monday afternoon. Like I said, just the two of us in the house. The piece is missing; therefore, instead of re-working the puzzle and then donating it to the Senior Center, we will throw it away. A little frustrating.

We have enjoyed the Buffalo puzzles because they include a poster to use as reference thats larger than the image on the box. This puzzle, as delivered to us, did not include the poster as described in the product literature. I hope this is a QA defect and not a change by the Buffalo folks to stop including the poster.

For my wife. She says Buffalo Games puzzles are very good.

Arrived when expected. Fun to assemble with all pieces in box. Good puzzle.
