This was for a gift for my mother. She is reaching 90 and her sight is failing but she loves to do crossword puzzles. The last dictionary she had was too small and falling apart. The new one is bigger, easier to handle and better print. She loves it. We also use it alot when playing scrabble, another of her favorite activities. When I ordered it, it came quicker than expected and in perfect shape. I have ordered from Amazon befor and will again. Thank you.

I received this crossword dictionary last week & I am very disappointed in this book. It doesn't have all the words and it did not help my crossword puzzles at all. The letter are very large which helps my eyes.

After examining this book, I found it did not have enough information to really help with crossword puzzles. It's fine if you do easy ones, however, anything more than that, not very helpful. I ended up returning it. I did like the large print, though.

For the past few years I have been using "The Million Word Crossword Dictionary" by Stanley Newman and Daniel Stark. It's an excellent product and has been very helpful when I'm doing crossword puzzles. Since it was getting rather worn, and since I'd rather have larger print, I ordered the Random House "Large Print Crossword Puzzle Dictionary" from Amazon.com. It was a huge disappointment. It does have large print, and that is helpful. But it has nowhere near the resources, and can't possibly provide the help, that the old worn out one I have, (and still use), provides. I would never have ordered it if I had seen it in advance.

I bought this for my Mom as she loves doing crosswords, this book was perfect for her with the large print, anything to make her life more enjoyable!

I bought this for my 91 year old mother who lives in Crossword puzzle books. She really likes the large print.

Bought this for my wife, but she didn't like it at all! An older dictionary had was more usable, so ordered an updated version of the older crossword dictionary. I was able return it for a full refund-no problem-thanks.

Item arrived earlier than expected. I bought it for my grandma to help with her crossword puzzles, and was expected nothing for Christmas. She found this under the tree and was very pleased. Thank you!

Given as a gift to my 85 year old uncle. He seems very happy with it. I looked through it when it arrived and thought that it may not have enough words for the difficult puzzles, but I could be wrong. Time will tell.

This is perfect for my mom who can't see very well. She uses it all the time.
