515095" Huzzle Cast Padlock Puzzle

I got this puzzle today and it's a great fidget toy! Feels solid. The 2 middle nuts rotate smoothly and can be spun with one thumb. Enjoyed the "Nutcases" challenge to swap the nuts over First of these puzzles I have bought so will look at others in the future.

Great puzzle and keeps you occupied for a good while!

The puzzle concept is great; I tried a few different approaches and found myself stuck, picking it up and putting it down several times over the course of a few days. Today I finally solved it. It was an approach I'd already tried, but I found that just expecting it to effectively "fall apart" when I got the correct solution was not going to happen; it required a little bit of encouragement to separate the first piece (a bit more of a firm push), and the same putting it back together. Aside from that, I very much enjoyed solving it

All I can say is it's witchcraft, solved and replaced took me about 4 1/2 hours, I got it apart after 3 didn't know how lol, took another hour and a half to figure it out and get it back to the start position. I know how to do it now in about 90 seconds, do I understand how it works you may ask? ......no 😂 its just 4 pieces! The loops are identical as are the two halves of the centre section the designer is in my opinion some kind of wizard and it's been enchanted haha, well worth the money, very clever and a wonderful brain teaser.

Good build quality for price point. However I happened upon the solution inside 10 mins. Fun but not challenging enough.

Best puzzle I’ve done so far took some time as a newbie and really enjoyed the detail and minuscule movement needed to beat it. This is where you should start if you like a challenge. Anyone suggest anything on a similar level worth buying? Pros - weighty, good build quality, the sound throws you, great balance, thick wine solid Cons - smells a bit, everyone wants a go when you’re struggling, addictive structure you’re day around beating this.

Brought as a present for my elderly father in law. Solved in a few hours! The gentleman in question does spend a lot of time on puzzles and lock picking though! The puzzle itself is quite small and light. Packaged and presented really well. An elegant item and one which is worth it to keep a mind occupied - however quickly it takes to solve!

I bought this just to see what it was about. It's a little frustrating, particularly putting it back together, but I didn't find it difficult to work out the principle. Someone said it took them around 30 minutes to solve. I didn't time myself, but it was probably about 10-15 minutes to open it and another 10 to put it back together securely. I don't think it will physically break too easily, but I can see it jamming up quite badly and that being the end of playtime. It's okay, but I don't think it's worth the asking price. somewhere between £5-10 would be more realistic. Saying that, I might still try one of the other models, just in case I'm being too hard on these guys.
