Puzzle sets arrived brand new, each set is fully sealed in plastic. It does not smell, the colors are bright. I took the risk of buying it, afraid of buyers' remorse based on the reviews. But I love the concept of real pictures on the tree and baby pictures inside because my 23 month old is learning to talk. The more pictures associated with the word, the better the word is recognized and pronounced. The toy manufacturer seems to have solved many of the problems mentioned in the reviews. In particular, the details are easy to fit in holes and colors. Some colors are too bright, but that suits us. The plywood is thin yet strong and is a massive improvement over the pressed composite paper puzzles I had in the 80's. I believe the width is related to the cost. I've attached an image with the Quokka brand on the left and Hape on the right. By 1 Puzzle the hype was much bigger. Also, light wooden toys thrown around cause less pain than heavier ones. Overall I really like these puzzles and think they are very good value for money ($21 for 3 sets). These puzzles remind me of something I would see in a natural history museum gift shop.
