Great pastime!

Last Christmas my son gave me my New York Times jigsaw puzzle. This is the best gift I've received in years. I take my words back - this is the best I've ever received. The only thing I would like would be a children's version. I would like to know how to contact the manufacturers to talk to them about this. Maybe someone will like it - the children will like it. Sincerely, [.].

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • Weight

Very difficult puzzles!

I love the puzzle system; I even ordered my mother. We are avid crossword puzzlers and this is definitely challenging. Handy as you can scroll to the answer just below or above. The only downside is that the cutscene is very difficult to use at first and sometimes gets stuck if it's too close to the end. Also, it would be nice if it was printed in large print (not sure if they do).

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • vulgarity

The New York Times Crossword Companion Roll-A-Puzzle Volume 1

I bought this Roll-A-Puzzle for my dear friend who is an elderly gentleman. For health reasons, he no longer leaves the house. As far as I know him, he always solved all the crossword puzzles in the newspapers. I can never complete one. He just loved it. I'll have to remember to consult with him because I'm sure he's probably willing to resupply. A great thing for those who like to solve crossword puzzles. I wish I had seen this article years ago.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • unreliable

"Great companion " for puzzles

I looked at several "electronic" versions of crosswords, but they didn't get a very high rating (2-3 stars out of 5). The New York Times Crossword Companion had very good reviews, so I decided to give it a try. The device is very light and compact. The position of the puzzles allows you to slide down to see the puzzle solution and return to the puzzle you are working on. The companion has an integrated pen and eraser compartment on the side. The reel mechanism works very well and keeps the…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Secret

A crossword puzzle player's dream come true, though not for long

Bought to replace my constant companion who had one of the handles fall off and break. I don't have enough words to express how much I enjoy it and its (almost) twin, the Luminator. Each is truly portable and practical. The Companion fits anywhere you would put a regular hardcover book. It also has an organic drawer that can hold two or three automatic pencils and one or two erasers. If you like wooden pencils, there is a built-in sharpener in the drawer. My only reservation in commending…

Pros
  • Quality workmanship
Cons
  • Requires socket
