Analysis

Note: The kind folks at Luv-it Puzzles sent me this product to sample. Thoughts are my own.

Luv-it Puzzles is one of the newer brands on the market, so I wasn't sure what to expect in terms of quality, but the first impression was strong: high quality, glossy packaging, as described on their site.

The puzzle pieces were packed cleanly in plastic, with an emphasis on cleanly - virtually no puzzle dust! My respiratory system was grateful.



Sorting through the pieces, I found a few ones stuck together here and there, but they were easy to separate without damage. The puzzle pieces are sturdy and have a snug fit and durable feel, so solid quality overall but not quite at the Ravensburger or Pomegranate levels (top tier IMHO).

With all of the pockets of color from the flower patches, it is not a difficult puzzle to complete, so it makes for a good weekend project.

The catalog currently includes a variety of 300, 500 and 1000 piece puzzles - would love to see the collection expand.
