Absolutely Brilliant!
This product is, as the review title says, absolutely brilliant!
Got it for my daughter who loves to do puzzles but finds it difficult on our lounge rug as it has a long pile. This fab board is now used for every puzzle she does! Wasn't sure she'd accept it as she is Autistic, but she loves it! No more frustration for her with trying to get the puzzle pieces to stay flat on our bumpy rug!
It's smooth and flat, with a plush top surface...just perfect for moving the pieces around, and it's a really good size too, even for bigger puzzles.
Obviously has none of the issues you get with a mat...no curling, rolling...its perfectly flat, sturdy and stows away easily.
Highly recommended this product.

Item returned twice- faulty
Love the idea of this product and have heard good things from friends and family that have the same, but I have had no luck with this product.
I bought this item from Hobbycraft and when I began my puzzle on it I noted air bubbles under the felt which prevented the puzzle lying flat and which pushed apart connected pieces.
I returned the item with no issue and got a new one but the same thing happened again. Perhaps it’s a bad batch but I have given up and got a refund.

A little disappointed
I have wanted to buy one of these puzzle board for a while but am really disappointed with it as the surface material appeared baggy ,as if it had stretched and as if the material was too big for the board & this made the jigsaw uneven .

It should be great but it so isn’t
I had looked at some reviews that said it was baggy and ruffled. I thought maybe it was a bad batch. In the shop wrapped in cellophane it looked perfectly smooth. It was just what I needed, didn’t want a big one with flaps.
This is awful once you start using it it goes loose and baggy lifting all the puzzle pieces
More of a hindrance than a help

Basic but perfectly suited
Basic model but fantastic value for money for those occasional (lockdown) jigsaws...

Great simple solution
This was ideal for my 97year old nan who still wanted to do her puzzles without sitting at the main table. Popped it on top of her pull over table at her armchair and she can puzzle away in comfort, when she’s done she simply stores on the main table without having to pack away.

This product could easily be improved.
The size, weight and non slip properties of the board are great. Unfortunately the surface material is not bonded to the board resulting in it bulging up and ruining what should be a flat surface. Very disappointing.

Jigsaw board and jigsaws.
The sizes of the board are quite accurate but because the corners are curved and the board is slightly beveled, the jigsaw I bought along with it keeps slipping off the ends. The covering of the board does stop pieces from slipping but isn't a snug fit so it "puffs" in different areas. Not ideal for 1000 piece jigsaws even though the sizes stated on both products should have worked. Would be fine for anything smaller.
Bought 2 "Mindbogglers" jigsaws with the board. I've only opened one but it wasn't the best quality. A couple of pieces are damaged (bent) and one broken. Also looks like one edge piece is missing. Not finished yet, so it could still be hiding somewhere. Intend returning the other unopened (when Covid rules allow) as it's the same make, so assuming it's the same quality. Quite disappointed.
