YJacuing Wooden Jigsaw Puzzles for Adults, 200 Piece Unique Plant Shaped Premium 5mm Wood Puzzles Family Game (Yin Yang Tree, Medium)

This YJacuing wooden jigsaw puzzle is unusual, given its shape and some of the shapes of the pieces within it. The quality is very high, although the sides of the wooden box tend to separate when you lift off the lid because there's no glue holding them in place. The individual pieces are 5mm thick; the puzzle pieces don't fit together tightly, which I don't find an issue. If you want to display this when it's finished, there's a clear piece of adhesive film that would hold all the pieces together and some double-sided pads to attach to a wall, for instance. I would put the adhesive film on the reverse of the puzzle because of its shiny appearance. Or you could just put this lovely puzzle back in the bag so you can assemble it again at some point.

The box is just lovely, it feels superb, wooden too like all the rest of the pieces. It has a little stand and something to laminate it too so you can produly display the finished jigsaw, one of the better jigsaws ive recieved! Would definately recomment, its just good quality, you also get a lovely drawstring bag with the pieces in!

I love this type of puzzle! The UV printing is always vibrant and gorgeous, the thick pieces are so satisfying to assemble, the wood feels much higher quality than the usual paperboard, the pieces are much more interesting than a standard jigsaw, they usually come in great boxes...it's just an overall great experience. And I think this is the best puzzle I've had of this type.There are always downsides to this type of puzzle. The biggest one is that it's unavoidable that the pieces are a bit loose. You'd have to cut each piece individually to remove the gap, and I don't know if it's technically possible to get the printing and cutting calibrated just right to make a good picture, but if so, it would be much more trouble and expense than it's worth. As long as they're printing a complete image, then cutting it apart, there's going to be a little bit of material removed between pieces. This one promises .03mm accuracy, which seems believable to me, but that's still enough to be noticeable during assembly.How much this bothers you is entirely personal. I'm more than happy to put up with it for the other things I love about the puzzles, and others may even consider it a welcome bit of additional challenge. What I find inconvenient is that when you get a lot of pieces together, the slight differences add up, and it can be difficult to figure out precisely how to position it, especially since it isn't a rectangular grid. It all comes together in the end, though.Every laser cut puzzle I've had suffers from a few scorch marks. The main reason I'd call this better than the others is because I didn't see any scorching on the front, which is a first for me. There's a little on the back, but not much. I don't mind that in the least.The burlap bag was fraying a bit on the inside, leaving some long strings sticking out. This is super nitpicky, though. It's only made to hold puzzle pieces, and the seams are fine.The reference picture inside the box includes the outlines of the pieces, so it's super useful if you're struggling or impatient.There was one piece that was slightly cracked when I pulled it out of the bag. Hopefully, you can see it in the pictures, but it's just barely there. I noticed it because the small curve had moved just enough to make the gap beside it way too small. Once I noticed it, I gently shifted it back and was able to put it in place safely. I imagine this is a fluke, but I obviously can't know for sure.The stand for the box front is clever! It's a good use of the joints. Speaking of the joints, though, the ones holding the box together aren't very tight, and they aren't glued. I don't expect that it would come apart with the top on, and the sides haven't come out of the bottom except when I tried. But left on their own, the sides do want to fall outward a bit. Again, this is nitpicky. It's also easily rectified, so they may be tightened in future runs.I absolutely loved assembling this puzzle, and I'm sure I'll do the same many more times!
