Galison Full Bloom World Map Puzzle

Such a beautiful and fun puzzle

An excellent puzzle starts with a high quality image that is vibrant, highly saturated, and with lots of visual interest - this Galison puzzle has just that! All these features combined with thick, sturdy puzzle pieces makes this puzzle an excellent set to work with. The pieces fit snugly together that you can pick the puzzle up without it falling apart. As a result of this it is much harder to dismantle or separate the puzzle when you are ready to put it away. I saw this as a positive and decided to frame puzzle for a lovely statement piece and conversation starter. I highly recommend Galison puzzles for families. Grade A+

I've done Galison's Butterfly Migration puzzle and absolutely loved it. I think the butterflies are more difficult than the flowers, but either way, it's an excellent puzzle! The pieces are thick and sturdy, the colors are vibrant and it's fun to do! The lat/long lines are definitely difficult, but worth it. I love this puzzle! This is an excellent brand and will purchase more!

Great quality puzzle. Vivid colors, good fit of pieces, and high quality finish. This one took me about six hours (I put three or four 1,000pc puzzles together a week, six hours is quite challenging). After mounting the puzzle and hanging it on my wall, it is easily one of the most complimented ones in my collection. Great gift for nature lovers, map lovers, or puzzlers looking for a challenge.

Literally my favorite puzzle to date. So much fun to put together and it makes a beautiful art piece when you are done!

This is a really nice puzzle. The colors are vibrant and it presents enough challenge without being too difficult. I was a bit worried since their are two basic configurations for the puzzle pieces that the puzzle might be a bit boring. I tend to prefer puzzles with lots of shapes. This one is pretty and worth preserving. There was almost no puzzle dust at all and the box was of excellent quality. I'll actually save the box for putting together small puzzle sections because it seems just right for that. The puzzle pieces interlocked OK--not the best I've ever seen but by far not the worst.

A little time consuming but well worth it in the end. All pieces were there. Usually put the perimeter together first, however with this I found it much easier to work with all the flowers/continents and then do the perimeter in the last 20-30%. Very much enjoyed. Very striking and vibrant puzzle to complete. A few pieces seemed to closely fit in other spots but not often. Using the lines of latitude and longitude along with the words in the black area helped the assembly process. Most enjoyed puzzle done in a long time.

Got this as a gift for my mom for Christmas, and it's one of her favorite puzzles to date. Beautiful, well-made, and complex enough to be an interesting challenge. Well-priced as far as puzzles of this size go.
