RoseArt - Back to The Past - Hometown Celebration - 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle for Adults

I enjoyed very much putting together this puzzle 💖

This was a gift for my 88 year old grandfather who has done HUNDREDS of puzzles throughout the years. He loved doing this although it only took him two days to put it together. It was a good quality picture without fuzziness. it was a fantastic price to top it all off.

This review is for the "RoseArt - Back to The Past - Hometown Celebration - 1000 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle for Adults".I finished this puzzle a couple days ago. I enjoyed it quite a bit. I went into it expecting at least one missing piece after reading quite a few reviews for RoseArt puzzles stating others had encountered this issue. So when I discovered that my set of pieces was complete, I was quite happy.The puzzle itself is decent quality. The pieces are not as snug together as other more premium brands, so picking the completed puzzle up is likely not going to work, or might work but it will quickly start to fall apart. The pieces do fit together well though. The shapes are normal (not oddball shapes like you might get in a brand like Bits and Pieces). The colors are bright and easy to see. The quality of the image is good, matching the poster and box cover, so if you need to figure out where a piece goes, the poster is quite handy and accurate.As for the puzzle assembly experience, I found it to be good. While trying to focus on specific areas first, the toughest parts were the car, especially the grill, the tree foliage up in the top corners, and the pants on the guy in the front left. Lots of, "really? that's where that piece goes?!" moment along the way. Overall a good time putting this together considering the puzzle was under ten bucks. I'll probably try some more RoseArt puzzles now after doing this one.

Beside the cheap cardboard & the teeny tiny size of the pieces, my main complaint is the pieces don't stay next to the piece they should attach to ! All you have to do is SLIGHTLY bump the table, & most of your pieces you have matched up will separate from what you matched themto !! I have done about 50 puzzles since the covid pandemic & never had such crappy quality in a puzzle. This picture of the ice cream truck was just like the one in my childhood so I really wanted to Modpodge it and frame it. So I hope I don't wind up with alot of missing pieces like so many of you have said in yr reviews. I'm barely 10% into it and struggling to keep the pieces attached since none if them attach at all, they merely sit next to the correct piece. It is awfully annoying and exasperating!! So cheaply made. Additionally, the poster AND the box photos are unclear, they don't have clearly defined artwork. Just not what a puzzle poster should have. I will tell you what helps .... before I begin all my puzzles, I take about 8 photos of each poster with my cell phone camera, dividing by sections top, middle, & bottom of poster. Then I can go to a specific section & enlarge that small section I am working on by zooming in to enlarge every single inch of each section. You can swipe to save by thenvenlarginging that swiped area. And it's so much better than using the posters because you can enlarge to your needs !!!! I hope you will pass this trick around so we can help more people like us who love "puzzle-ing ". And don't buy this puzzle. It's the worst I've ever bought .

I love the colorfulness of this puzzle but the pieces just don’t fit together very well. Some of them I have to do a double take to make sure it’s the correct piece. Puzzle piece sizes are what I’d expect for a 1000 pc puzzle. It was a really good price, so good value. Picture quality is just as pictured and great! Nice vibrant colors.

It's a great puzzle but missing an edge piece. Tried to contact company but it wouldn't go through. Hope somebody can help. Thanks. I have a picture if you need it

Fun project for bad weather

Back to the PastVery fuzzy and not clear subject matter. The picture on the box is clearer than the puzzleMakes this puzzle very frustrating and hard to find pieces that match, as we have been finding with this brand of puzzle.We also think it was also missing pieces, as we were never able to find all the outer edge pieces.We worked on this for 2 weeks and was not able to get past 50%Puzzles should be fun and challenging, this one is not and do not recommend
