RavensburgerSort and Go - Jigsaw Puzzle Accessory - Sturdy Stacking Trays for Sorting Pieces - Premium Quality - Ideal Gift for Enthusiasts - Black - Can Hold Up to 1000 Pieces

I thought this was just a frivolous purchase, it is a GAME CHANGER! As a color-first puzzler who struggles to puzzle with others, this allows you to organize and divide the pieces and move around a puzzle more. No more all your pieces are stuck on the other side! Just…swap trays with your puzzle partner every so often and you are set. I love the quirky puzzle piece shape and they stack really well on top of each other. Any time I’m bringing a puzzle to a cabin, these trays are coming too!

Makes sorting jigsaw puzzle pieces easier. Sturdy and fit one on top of each other for a smaller footprint.

Love these trays they make doing my puzzles so much better!

Before I brought the "Ravensburger Puzzle Sort and Go Jigsaw Puzzle Accessory", I had been using food storage containers to keep my puzzle pieces organized. They worked pretty well, but then I saw this product and thought I'd treat myself.It's a nice idea, but the product does have some flaws that make it less than ideal for storing puzzle pieces.The main drawback I find is that the trays are too shallow. I mainly work on 500 piece jigsaw puzzles, so had thought I'd be fine with this product (which is said to be for up to 1,000 piece puzzles). However, what I found was that the trays are shallow and the pieces kept spilling over the edges. Also, when the pieces got to near filling the trays, the trays didn't stack neatly and seemed a little wobbly.Of course, this problem all depends on how you divide your puzzle pieces. In the most recent jigsaw I have been working on, I split the pieces into sky, cat, trees/grass, buildings, and miscellaneous. All the trays were full almost to overflowing and did not stack easily. The cat pieces were so many that I had to spread them between two of the trays - one for the main body, and the other tray for the "outline".The trays themselves seem fairly sturdy, and are quite cute. I liked the puzzle shaped design of the trays. They are quite large, and if you don't use all six trays for storing puzzle pieces, you can always use one of the trays to assemble small parts of your jigsaw and save them out of the way until they can be fitted into the main puzzle.As long as the trays are not too full, they stack quite well. But it is a bit of a pain if the tray you need is at the bottom of the stack - you'll have to unstack all the other trays first before you can get to it.There are no lids for the trays, so you'll need to take care when unstacking the trays. One particular problem I have is that whilst I can work around there not being a lid for each of the trays, I'd at least have liked a lid for the topmost tray. Otherwise, it's all too easy to knock everything over - especially when the trays are nearly overflowing.Whilst the trays do stack nicely together, they don't really lock. When I'm not using them, I carefully stack the trays (with puzzle pieces) inside the packaging that they came in. Then I put the packaging lid on so that everything is secure. This works to keep everything neat and organized, and mains the trays can easily be moved without risk of them falling over or anything. But if the trays are slightly too full, they don't stack snugly and then the box lid of the packaging won't fit on neatly.I'd really have liked some sort of lid, and maybe even some way to "lock" the trays together so that they remain as one whole unit and can be safely moved around.This probably doesn't offer enough to be worth buying, but it would make an excellent gift. I'd have been a little happier with my purchase if it had cost $9.99, but $14.99 is a bit too much.

Before I bought the Sort & Go, I had read the reviews and knew it wouldn't be as big as I'd like. However, since it was the best I could find in my price range, I decided to give it a shot. I actually really like and appreciate it. There are 6 trays and while I think one more would be helpful, they work great. I've used these twice, once for a 1000 piece puzzle and once with a 750 piece puzzle. The 1000 piece I had already started, but it was helpful to contain different colors in each tray so I could work out of one tray and not worry about the space for the rest of the pieces. By the time I got down to the last 100 pieces or so, I could sort the pieces by shape into each tray.The 750 piece puzzle I used the trays right from the start. I sorted all the edge pieces into one tray and then by color the rest. You couldn't have a single layer, but the trays did contain all the pieces and still stacked when I was not working on the puzzle. I really was able to work out of each tray quite easily.The final reason I really like these trays is that they stack on top of one another and can even store with the pieces in the box if I needed to. I have a cat. The 1000 piece puzzle half ended on the floor one evening due to the cat jumping on the table and knocking it all over. I lost several pieces for about 3-4 days before I eventually found them all. That is when I purchased this. For this reason alone, I really recommend these trays.Cons are pretty simple. They could be a smidgen bigger. Also, while the puzzle shape looks nice, the little indents on the sides really cut into usable space. However, I don't think I've seen anything else out there that would work as nicely as these do for me.

This product is very useful for sorting puzzle pieces by color. The trays interlock and stack to be stored in its own cardboard box; very convenient! You do have to have a large table to spread out the trays; we're actually using the top of a large Rubbermaid bin that gets pushed under the main table when not in use. Having ample space near your puzzling area would be useful.These trays are on the thin side and should be handled gently but seem sturdy enough if care is taken. The best feature is its ability to be stacked and stored in its own box. Great design!
