Educa 33,600 Piece Wild Life Puzzle with Wheeled Wooden Carry Case

(Below is a SPOILER ALERT!!!! If you want to struggle on your own, skip this!)Any huge puzzle is a good one....but I just want to share a helpful SOLVING TIP !1. The piece shapes of "3-holes,1-arm" and "3-arms,1-hole" are used ONLY FOR CONNECTING TO EACH OTHER !Sort these out when starting the bag. When connected, they form three horizontals: one for across the middle of top-to-bottom,and the other two are middle of each half. So when these are assembled, the puzzle is divided into 4 equal portions and youget an idea for where the animals. etc hook up...so you can build around these divisions.2. Of course, each bag has straight edge pieces for top and bottom horizontals (and two have a third straight side). So assemblingthese in conjunction with the #1 above gives essentially 4, 800+ piece puzzles.3. Sort the others by color or animal, and plants by their leaf types. You get done pretty quickly.It took me 3 months for the first couple bags until I noticed this. Next one took only 1 month !Happy solving...--Tom

It took over a year and a half but I finally finished this bad boy! I completed it in separate small batches so it wasn't until I finished it and laid it out, that I truly appreciated it's size. I was moving all of the furniture out of the living room and my husband said I was over estimating the size... We ended up having to move even more furniture because there wasn't enough room!The quality and clarity of the image are just as expected. I didn't struggle with pieces that didn't fit well like I did with the Retrospect puzzle. The image varied enough to keep me engaged which is another challenge I had with Retrospect. I can't wait to see if Ravensburger comes out with another puzzle to reclaim the title. Until then I'll be working on their 32,000 NY skyline puzzle!

This is an enormous puzzle,18 feet long and over 5 feet wide. Be prepared to spend a LOT of time (years!) assembling it if you are serious about completion. also, if you intend to glue the whole thing together when completed, consider the logistics NOW on how and where you intend to support, hang and display it. Being handy with tools is a big help if you want to frame it, otherwise you will need a custom-built frame that will cost a small fortune. You also need a very big room to put it in. I also had to build my own edged puzzle board as the standard ones are too small.I love the picture, which has a lot of detail in it, and the whole phenomenal size of the puzzle. I don't love the fact that pieces which fit together don't stay interlocked and fall apart too easily. This strikes me as a less than quality puzzle. Having edges around my work board really cut down on the separating pieces fall off the board.

This is one of my retirement projects. I will not be able to do a complete review until the. For now, I have reviewed the puzzle packaging and do not see any issues. Hopefully I do not have any missing pieces.

Wheeled Wooden Carry Case broken in multiple places. Handle ripped out, two corners separated and split, support piece comply broken off.Puzzle pieces are all in good shape in sealed bags, just really unhappy about the wooden case. Don't Recommend!!!

Each bag is its own puzzle so if u want to do it quicker don't mix up the bags. Great color awsome picture only one piece came slightly unglued but was easily repaired.YES u can order the piece that you loose lol

I've been dreaming to have one of this huge size puzzle. Super like it. Prop gonna take years to finish that.

Love the puzzle but wooden storage box was damaged, edges broke/splintered, and one of the wheels was broke.
