Customer Rating: 5 out of 5 Solar System Wood Puzzle a Family Pleaser

I bought this as a gift for a family with children ages 10-13. The family loved working it together over the holidays, and say it is now their favorite puzzle. They love its scientific theme. Good value for me.

We enjoyed putting this wooden puzzle together and also learned about the universe. The pieces are well made and contained many pieces that were space related. Highly recommended. Austin, TX

The previous review comments on the size of Earth, verses the rest of the Universe. I feel, that the makers intent was, to actually highlight Earth in all of its glory, so we might appreciate and honor the planet lent to us in good faith. I bought the puzzle for the beautiful colors and am looking forward to the challenge I will experience in building it together, not for the scientific correctness of individual planet size.

OK I can't really give a totally fair review because I didn't purchase it so I can't comment on the construction, but looking at the picture...EARTH is portrayed as the largest planet...C'mon Smithsonian ...REALLY? I would expect you to have a somewhat scientifically accurate product! Maplewood, NJ
