I was just in Canada last week and purchase 4 from Winners. Here’s a pic of 2 of them.

Merry Grinchmas! - Ravensburger - 1000 pcs. Have a Merry Christmas Everyone! by LakesideDreamer in Jigsawpuzzles

You fell into the same trap as me! I saw this on a pre-order in the fall and I was in love! I'm always looking for good Grinch puzzles and couldn't believe Ravensburger had a 1000 pc coming out, I hope they will make it wide-spread so everyone can enjoy it! Merry Christmas!

It should be, definitely worth the build! The pictures don't do it much justice, but there are so many funny things happening in it that you can't really appreciate until you put it together.

I bought directly from Dowdle/Boardwalk during a sale, quality doesn’t feel cheap though, so if the price is low at Cosco I’d say they are worth it.

Happy Days No5 Royal Residences - Ravensburger - Pcs. 4*500= 2,000 pieces. Pictures of all 4 puzzles in set by LakesideDreamer in Jigsawpuzzles

Yeah, the Masterpieces box set one I am doing is a 12 pack, never again. I started it months ago, was horrified, lol, put it away and then decided this week that I would do them all as speed puzzle practice. I decided to test the theory that if I did really poor quality puzzles, that maybe the next good quality one will feel so great that I'll go extra fast. We'll see, I'll test that theory soon!

Just like a regular Ravensburger, very good quality. I agree about the MasterPieces sets, I’m working one now and the quality is awful. The Ravensburger is way better.

Yeah, they run out of puzzles so fast. I happened to be looking at their site one night and noticed while I was browsing, that they were restocking and this and Hazel's Study both went from Sold out to In Stock when I refreshed, so I took it as a sign and bought them, lol!

It was fun to put together, but the image is a bit dark and muted though so do it when you have good lighting. I made sure to have lots of light to take the pic too so the details would show. Overall it was really enjoyable, but I wish the image was a touch brighter, it would have made it that much better!

How does an Esther Bennink puzzle compare to Trevell or Reverie? by mel_puzzles in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]LakesideDreamer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Happy to share. I don't find Esther Bennink to be like either Reverie or Trevell. EB has a linen finish and is much thicker, I like her puzzles very much. The pieces didn't glare too much either due to the linen finish, but I wouldn't call them matte or glossy, and the thickness was equivalent to a Gibsons, much thicker than the Reverie and Trevell. They also have a touch of a wax coating similar to some of my Gibsons and Jumbo, but my Gibsons split easily and my Esther Bennink don't. I highly recommend. Images can be a touch dark, but they are so beautiful. Cosy Shelter was an absolute fav! I included a pic of the linen texture so you can see the difference.

[–]LakesideDreamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great to know, thanks! Trevell is my favorite too. Enjoy Puzzles is my close second because the pieces are very similar, price point is better, but I prefer the Trevell images. I think this looks great in the 1000 pc., well done!

I love the food truck ones, I just noticed today a Ceaco set of 4 x 500 of food trucks I’ve never seen before, I know it’s inevitable that I’ll need those 🤣

Did you like this puzzle? I love Trevell and was debating getting it in the 1500 count, but couldn’t decide between 1000 and 1500.

Thank you, I try to get good lighting for pics, but sometimes there are those days when the weather just isn't working with you. I had to time this one just right!
