I know things have changed with the Dowdle puzzle company, but I thought the quality of the puzzles would stay the same. When I opened the Niagara Falls puzzle box I noticed the poster quality was different. Everything looks fuzzy, and not in an intentional way. I thought the puzzle pieces would be better, but they are not. The vehicles, people’s faces, and clouds all have blurred edges. Honestly, nothing is crisp and clear. It does not look like it was painted by Eric Dowdle. I’m also disappointed that the poster doesn’t have the story on the back. Now you have to download the story online to find out details about the painting.
Bottom line…It’s still a nice puzzle, but the qualities that made Dowdle puzzles stand out are missing.
Gave as a gift. Recipient was delighted.
My wife chose Niagra Falls as it was our favorite spot to visit. She really loves all your puzzles and is addicted to puzzles. Thank you for giving her a little joy everyday while doing puzzles.
All the puzzle pieces are the same shape which makes it very challenging for people who look for shapes.
It was fun putting the pieces together in sections and remembering our trip.
I love the puzzle. Ive been to the falls and the puzzle captures the beauty of the falls.
