Pros:

1. FUN! My grandson loves it!

2. There are no "rules."

3. It holds a five-year-old's attention.

4. It holds his grandmother's attention.

5. It hold the attention of adult guests.

6. Any way the tiles are arranged, it looks like a work of art.

7. The pieces are precision cut bamboo, with no rough edges.

8. The tray has just enough "ease" to make it easy to put the pieces in and take them out.

9. The colors are gentle, yet bold and clear. Non-toxic.

10. There are more tiles than you need to fill the tray -many more. Enough so that you can choose colors and shapes to suit the design or pattern in mind.

11. Pleasing to look at, satisfying to handle.

Cons:

1. The pieces are too small to have around toddlers.

2. It's hard to put away. Oh, there's a cloth bag for the pieces -and the sturdy box size is ample to to just toss everything in -but it's so beautifully made and designed, so engaging, you'll want to leave it out on the coffee table.

I bought this puzzle for my 5-yr-old niece, and as it turned out, it was fun for the whole family! We liked the fact that there were so many possibilities in terms of designs and that it comes with some suggested designs that are easy to create. It was too challenging for my niece to create the suggested designs on her own, but she will grow into it and she enjoyed making patterns and creating a beautiful design with every attempt. I have two minor complaints about the product one is that I wish there were more little triangles, which would add to the flexibility and possible designs, and the other is that the light and dark green pieces are so close in color that you can hardly tell the difference. Other than that, we loved it and will continue to play with it for days on end. I like the fact that it is made from bamboo and that it comes with lots of extra pieces and a nice canvas bag to hold all the pieces. I'll definitely be giving this as a gift again!

We got this puzzle for our five year old daughter and not only does she love to work on it, but so does our whole family. Creating your own beautiful patterns is so satisfying and is a really nice blend of art and geometry practice! My only complaint is that they give way too few triangles.

I echo everything P Geis said, plus the puzzle is excellent for people with dementia. It taps the creativity that may remain intact even with significant cognitive decline. There are no opportunities for mistakes and the end result is colorful and attractive. You can allow as much independence in design as the person can manage. There's enough ease in our puzzle base that adding a new piece can push existing ones a bit out of place if the puzzle is flat. This is frustrating for arthritic hands (but doesn't seem to bother kids). The issue is minimized by using the stake that elevates the puzzle base at about a 30-degree angle, allowing gravity to keep the pieces more secure. Definitely a 5-star product. Makes me want to investigate other Hape offerings.
