EuroGraphicsThe Solar System 100-Piece Puzzle

The size of the pieces is a bit small. Very challenging to finish 500 piece puzzle . But it looks great

Apart from those featuring Thomas the Tank Engine, there are not enough train themed jigsaw puzzles available that are easy enough for boys younger than 10 to complete. This one fits the bill perfectly though. The images were of great interest to my son, and he was able to complete it fairly quickly with no assistance (he’s 8 and not someone who does jigsaws on a regular basis). The pieces are brightly coloured, undamaged on opening, and seem fairly robust. This is a jigsaw that I think he will enjoy doing again, and therefore was money well spent. Would recommend.

Great quality pieces and images. What a shame it includes a very basic error on both the actual pieces and the artwork on the box: Platinum has been given the atomic number of 28 when it should be 78. It didn't spoil the enjoyment of doing the jigsaw but for something that is supposed to be educational, such an error is not acceptable.

I originally bought this puzzle for my fiance after she had an operation to get her something to do during her recovery as she wanted something to do that she could color in and this seemed to fit the bill.We first attempted the puzzle and got so far before we had to move house but the main niggle was that we were missing an edge piece. Not the end of the world but a bit annoying. We took the puzzle apart and put in in the cupboard. When the coronavirus lockdown was put in place we decided to give the puzzle another go. Once again we did the edges first and of course there was one piece missing. I then meticulously transferred all the remaing pieces from one box to another to find the piece but it just wasnt there.Fast forward a few days and when we had about 30 pieces left the edge piece magically appeared so we are very happy that a) we have completed a puzzle that is surprisingly much harder than you would expect with no color and b) that the last edge piece actually does exist and we are both just apparently blind!

My three year old son loves trains and simply adores this puzzle. It is beautifully full of interesting trains. You know if it is right for a present just by looking at the picture! Size wise, it is a good coffee table activity, large enough but not spilling over the edge of the table.Its quite a difficult puzzle though, with lots of similar pieces that go in different places. Moving on from 50 piece puzzles is hard for small people, and we're going to be helping on this one for a while longer. Don't get it for the younger puzzler if you don't have time to help. Saying that, with a little familiarity for us with the subtle differences between the black trains, my son can get the right place with just a clue as to which train it might be, and he gets a lot of satisfaction out of it.It loses a star for being quite poorly made. Our first copy get some lemonade spilled on it, and several of the pieces immediately separated into their layers of cardboard. Glueing them together was futile as you can't get it right with e.g. the wrong glue. We reluctantly bought a replacement, since it probably is his favourite at the moment. It is robust enough to survive normal wear and tear but don't get it wet!

Great puzzle, looks quite a teaser, recipient will be pleased. My big niggle is that the puzzle was not packaged at all, the delivery labels were actually stuck onto the puzzle and a part of the film seal was ripped when I removed the delivery labels. As this is a Christmas present I am definitely not impressed. I know you are busy Amazon but this is not acceptable
