This puzzle is beautiful, fun, and relatively easy to assemble. That being said, there is a quality issue with it that’s quite disappointing for me, and I’ve already sent an email to the company about it.
There are rips in the image on the puzzle, as if it weren’t cut all the way through and when the pieces came apart they peeled off. I haven’t had a quality issue like this with a Buffalo puzzle before, and it’s a bit of a bummer for me as I really love the image.
Still, it shouldn’t take too long to finish, and the colors really are lovely.
What a fantastic puzzle to assemble! It had great quality, a beautiful, colorful image with many things to discover; but it wasn’t so busy as to be difficult or distracting. I enjoyed it much more than I thought I would, which is always a fun thing to discover while you’re puzzling. 😍
The quality was excellent, very nice to find since there have been a few problems with bent pieces lately with Buffalo puzzles that I’ve done. There was no problem with this puzzle though, and I thoroughly enjoyed the assembly. The fit was tight and the puzzle laid flat, the image reproduction (especially the color) was excellent, and there were the usual variety of piece shapes. The chipboard was thick and felt good in the hand – overall it was just a wonderful puzzle!
Regular readers know I just can’t resist a puzzle with quilts; and there were several in this image. The colors and patterns were absolutely beautiful!
There were many tires and wheels in this image, but they weren’t as easy to find as you might think. I pulled as many pieces with wagon wheels and tires as I could during the initial sorting, but missed almost as many as I found. This red tractor looks as though it would be easy to find the pieces, but there was so much red in the image that this was one of the last things to be put together. It’s a great looking old tractor though, isn’t it?
It wasn’t too easy as to be boring, there was just the right amount of challenge and I completely adored this one. The assembly went faster than I thought, mostly because it was difficult to walk away from. Each small section led to another, and it was so much fun! If you’re looking for a great image that’s entertaining to assemble I highly recommend this puzzle. 👍👍
This very dark looking puzzle was difficult at times, but not nearly as challenging as I thought – it was much more enjoyable than anticipated!
The fit was looser than normal for a Buffalo puzzle, but it was otherwise good quality. The image reproduction was stellar, which it absolutely needed to be for such a dark image. Overall, other than the fit I was very happy with this puzzle.
The border was a little challenging, but not too awful. Sometimes a solid border like that can be extremely frustrating, but the shapes of Buffalo pieces make it a little easier and the system that I use to put edges together helped quite a bit as well.
I started with the kids, obviously. The faces were the easiest to pick out, and their clothing all had different textures to them that weren’t too hard to find. Then I put together those large letters, which other than the house below was the most difficult part of the entire image.
This dark bleeping house was the hardest part of the puzzle, but luckily it wasn’t too many pieces. It’s the only part of the puzzle that had me separating the pieces by shape, and even then I really had to pay close attention.
As a fan of the tv show Stranger Things I was excited to put this puzzle together, thank goodness it wasn’t disappointing!

Boy, was I wrong about this puzzle – it was much easier than I anticipated, but not so easy as to be boring. It was such a good time! I started in the morning and was finished pretty quickly before midday. Great quality, beautiful image with such striking color – I absolutely loved it.💜
Started with the solid (ish) colors around the edges and worked in toward the center with the words. It wasn’t even close to as hard as I thought it would be. But it kept me absorbed and focused, and I ended up with this gorgeous image to share with you all. 💟
I can’t think of much else to tell you other than if you think you might enjoy this puzzle you should go for it. It was lots of fun and it’s so darn pretty!
This is one of the Country Life images from Buffalo, and as usual it’s an entertaining and well-made puzzle. There was zero progress made yesterday, but today I’m feeling as though there will be some good progress made. It seems like a good day for puzzling, doesn’t it?
My next section to tackle is the quilts; both the ones in the back of the truck and the ones set up on display behind it. It may take a while, but it’ll be so beautiful and colorful once it’s done!
Most of the fruits and vegetables are already done, as are the house, barn, and both trucks. The most difficult part seems as if it will be the grass/driveway in the middle of the picture. It shouldn’t be too terrible though, I’m actually looking forward to it. 😎
