This review is from: Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Safari Chunky Puzzle (Toy)

I want to say first that I LOVE Melissa and Doug products. They are very durable and grow with my son developmentally. My problem with this product is that what I received was very clearly NOT a Melissa and Doug puzzle. It very much resembled one until I picked up the puzzle pieces and discovered that they were nothing more than raw wood cut-outs w/ stickers on top! There was not one drop of paint on the pieces! The board was nicely painted and has the Melissa & Doug 'logo' on it like the others that I have, so I am not sure at all what went wrong w/ the pieces.

This review is from: Melissa & Doug Deluxe Wooden Safari Chunky Puzzle (Toy)

The puzzle pieces are not hand-painted; they have paper stickers glued over unfinished wooden cut-outs. My daughter has had this puzzle for two weeks and the stickers are already wearing off. I used to be a fan of Melissa & Doug, but I will not be buying any of their products in the future if they are now producing this kind of cheap junk.

This is a wonderful puzzle, extremely durable, with smooth edges, and delightfully fun. I purchased it for my granddaughter who just turned two. Her speech therapist immediately spied it among her toys and used it as her educational toy for that session, so there is obvious learning value. A nice change of pace from farm animals and shapes in the learning curve.
