Great quality product
thanks
In order to get to the tangeam pieces you need a butter knife to actually pry it open that’s how sealed it is. Definitely not recommending
I was hoping this could be used as a money puzzle
only bad thing I can say about it is the wood case can get stuck and make it hard to open.
Given as a Christmas gift. Looks good.
Obviously, the first positive point is that this is a nicely sized, well-crafted and very well boxed tangram. Wooden sets always suit me best--a good texture, feel, and look. Its size (including thickness) makes it an all around pleasure for a very good price. I love tangrams, and this is one of the best I have come to play with--thanks very much!
Just what I was looking for to amuse and occupy visiting youngsters
Box was a bit warped and that makes it sit slightly off but the pieces inside fit and are nice and solid.
Beautiful game. I have several Tangram sets and this is one of the better looking ones. Great deal.
This is small. .. I thought it was going to be bigger like the size of a dinner plate
Just as it is advertised. It is small-ish, but that is disclosed. The wood is nice and love the wooden box. Great price too.
Nicely produced puzzle. The box is sturdy and is a nice home for the pieces. Exactly as I had expected - good size and quality.
Too small. I used one that was 12" x 12".This is what I thought I'd ordered. This one is 4 x 4 inches.
The quality of this puzzle is a really good deal for the price. And I would add that though one reviewer said her puzzle came with no pictures, I just bought this puzzle and it came with a piece of paper showing 17 different tangram designs. And of course you can always find many more online.
High quality, well made and they fit tight enough to make it a challenge. Fun.
Christmas gift. I didn't see it opened and he didn't comment on it.
This is a "standard" set of tangrams, the same set of shapes that have been around since at least the 80's when I was a kid--I say this because there are a few different standards out there now, with different shapes that won't likely work with the standard silhouette-style puzzles out there. They're nice quality and definitely a step up from plastic or some of the multi-colored painted sets. The box is about 6 inches wide, a good size (not too small).These look a little better than some of the pictures suggest, with an attractive, uniform wood stain (some of the pictures make the parts appear slightly different colored). We specifically wanted a set of Tangrams that were all the same color because I feel that's part of the fun, not having wild colors distract from trying to fit the pieces into a sillhouette.They're for our 5 year old, but immediately my wife and I got sucked into trying to build a cat from a silhouette we found on the Internet. These are still as simple and yet satisfying a puzzle today as ever. It would have been nice if it came with a small booklet of puzzles, but they're easy enough to find on the Internet.
I accidentally came across a listing for a wooden puzzle here at Amazon for less than half the price I paid for the same product at a gift shop. I like my puzzle very much, so I thought I'd get another. This is the one I chose. It's beautiful - hand crafted, and it looks it. I had never heard of Tangrams before, and reading about them was fascinating. Amazing to think so many shapes can be formed from seven pieces! I struggled with this one, thank goodness it's not an IQ test :) But, I have finally "got it." I think.The puzzle doesn't come with any printout or booklet of additional puzzle shapes to try. That, you can get off the internet. I've tried a few of those, and will try, try again.IMPORTANT: You need to be careful putting on the top of the box or it will jam. This happened to me, and I had to use a pen knife to pry the top off. Make sure the grain of the wood on the box top and its base are going in the same direction and you'll be OK. I don't consider this a fault, I think it's the nature of the product, and use will loosen it up (so to speak). I haven't put the base of the puzzle in the box top when I'm using it, instead, I dump the pieces into the box top for play.A great piece for a desk or coffee table, and the price can't be beat.
