Review on Think Fun Fifteen Puzzle Classic by Mirzet Gosselin

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Not as good as original but decent

I have a Fifteen puzzle that is over 15 years old and in good condition. Before we had spinners and other fancy sensory toys, this puzzle was the best thing ever. The feel of the enamel around the numbers, the coolness and weight of the metal *Chief's Kiss* are perfect. Hours of stimming quality. The only reason I bought another one is so I can leave it in my car. This new one is decent. It's definitely made a lot cheaper. The creases in the metal aren't that neat, and you should definitely use some WD-40 to quell the unholy squeak that comes from the tile being displaced as it breaks. I'm having trouble loading images right now or I want to show you the differences between this new and my old classic 15 side by side puzzle. The biggest cost reduction I see is the bag that the puzzle comes in. The material is much thinner and the seams are almost not as tight. When the puzzle is in, the bag should stretch so you can feel each of the rivets against the vinyl. The old case is also snug, but the material isn't that flimsy, so you still feel pretty confident in it. Hey, it's been holding me back all these years. No rips or loose seams. All in all, it's still a very nice toy. It's not plastic so no worries about it breaking or colors fading from heat etc. I would still recommend it to anyone who wants or needs a 'smarter' worry device which isn't so pointless. .
