My son gave me a personalised jigsaw with a picture of my 3 grandchildren on it for my birthday. I loved it as I love doing a good jigsaw and the photo he’d used was a cracker. However the quality is awful. The top layer is already coming away from the base and curling up at the edges, there is no indication of the finished size on the box though having done loads of 1000 piece jigsaws I have a rough idea, also no insert with the photo on so only the picture on the box to go on but the detail differes. I just wanted to warn anyone who might be thinking of buying one from Funky Pigeon, there are other companies out there such as Ravensburger who usually make excellent quality jigsaws. Don’t use Funky Pigeon!

Try Wentworth- wooden and make lovely personalised jigsaws using your own photograph. You can even have a hidden message ( happy 80th birthday for example). Loved by all recipients and they don’t peel or curl! [if you give someone a puzzle with a message, don’t let on and they’ll think they are just making a family picture and find the message as a surprise!]
