 Love Melissa and Doug, but this puzzle fell apart Dec 26, 2008
By Jujube

I've bought many Melissa and Doug toys and loved almost all of them. They're generally sturdy, colorful, educational and enjoyable.
However, no matter how attractive, fun and educational a toy may be, it's worthless if you can't use it. This puzzle (as well as the similar construction themed one) both fell apart when we opened them. And not in the way that a puzzle should.
The puzzle is constructed of lightweight laminate. However, there's a wide layer of ineffective glue between some layers. The puzzle feels more like balsa wood than the usual sturdy construction to which we're accustomed.
When our little guy unwrapped it this Christmas, he immediately wanted to play with it. So, I removed the shrink wrap and began to separate the pieces. Immediately, the laminated layers on the pieces (specifically the edges of the lumpy parts) began to separate and break off. Mostly the bottom and topmost layers.
Again, I usually find Melissa and Doug toys to be of high quality. Judging by the reviews here, others haven't had the same problem. I'm hoping that this is simply one small manufacturing batch that went amiss and not a new trend. However, I can only review based on my experience. So, although this puzzle gets high marks for fun, attractiveness and educational value, I can't give it more than 2 stars because of the construction and safety issues (small pieces of broken laminate that could pose a choking hazard).

 Great item!! Apr 10, 2007
By mom of 2
This is our 2nd puzzle from Melissa and Doug and our 3 year old loves it!! Easy for him to work by himself and problem solve where the pieces go. These are great for several learning concepts and I have already ordered more for us and some for a gift!!

My 2 year old loves the animals on this puzzle Aug 23, 2007
By Heather Hameetman
My 2 year old has always loved puzzles, but before he's always had the easier, fit the animal into the correct spot, puzzles, so I decided to take it a step further and get him this puzzle. He absolutely LOVES this puzzle, it's easy for him to distinguish the different animals on the pieces and he loves the bright colors!

 Extremely Poor Quality Apr 11, 2011
By Wandering Hoosier
"dog lover"
I have bought many other Melissa & Doug products and have been relatively happy with them. This one, though, is a huge disappointment. I had put the puzzle away for a few weeks after receiving it so that I could take it out on a "rainy day." When I opened the product, I found the lamination defective. All of the pieces stuck together and the paper for the picture tore when I tried to separate the pieces. I wanted to return the puzzle or at least exchange it for a new one but apparently I would only get a partial refund and no shipping credit. As a result, I threw it away and won't be buying anymore Melissa & Doug puzzles.
