"If you're a puzzle box afficianado you might be disappointed in the puzzle aspect of the boxes, as they are not very challenging, but they sure are really cute.
I ordered the cat just thought it was adorable!
As a few others suggested, if they made the inner compartment a little larger to accomodate gift cards it would make this more versatile for gift-giving."

"I was alitte worried when I ordered this. I wasn't sure what to expect, but I was and am pleasantly surprised. The workmanship is beautiful and the piece finished out well. My only complaint is that the compartment is too small to be a gift card in, but I'm sure I can think of something that will. I bought the clownfish for my nephew who loves to fish. A nice fishing lure would fit nicely. Anyway, go for it. These boxes are nice."

"I purchased the clownfish and cat. I received them today and am very happy with the product. They are handmade so there is a little marking in the wood but understandable. The compartment was a little smaller than anticipated but I'll just put money inside instead of a gift card. I cannot wait to my family opens them."

"I ordered the tree frog box and I love him. I think he is so adorable. I liked him so much i actually have him displayed. It took me a few tries to get a hang of opening it and closing it but it is very very cute. I am going back to order the parrot for my aunt for her birthday."

"I ordered one of each of these puzzle boxes last year for Christmas. I gave one to each of my daughters, daughter-in-law, & step-daughter. I kept the parrot. I showed them to my husband when they arrived, and he was so impressed, and it takes a lot to impress him when it comes to wood-working. He is a cabinet maker and has made cedar/chests and cradles for our grandchildren. He is a perfectionist when it comes to anything made from wood, so when I say he was impressed that is about the best review I could ever give anthing. When each of these presents were opened it was so fun to watch their expressions. At first they thgouth they were just a nice box, but then they they discovered they were a puzzle box everyone had to look at them and figure out how to open them. I am giving them a 5 star rating but only because it can't be higher. The only complaint I have is QVC's shipping. I got five medium sized boxes to get these and they would have all fit in one box!"

"I use these in my Montessori preschool. We use natural materials in Montessori and this fits the bill. The children love to manipulate the boxes and the animal shapes draw them in. I would buy these for adults too, especially if I had a jewelry gift to present to them. A necklace would fit nicely in all the boxes. I have them all except the tree frog, which I'm getting today."

"I received this puzzle box due to a QVC shipment mistake; I ordered a ceramic Thanksgiving dish, and inside the box, along with the invoice for the dish I ordered was the parrot puzzle box (and no dish!),
I thought this item deserved a review, because although the wood is pretty, the box arrived broken, so think before you order! Also, the item was not packed well at all, so no surprise it's already broken."

Disappointment & Waste of Time

"I ordered the fish for someone who is a fish expert and hard to buy for, and they looked so unusual and quality workmanship on TV. Mine has a big black flaw on the front, on the lightest wood which looks awful. The pin that holds it together is loose, and not in the spot it shows on the display. Too sloppy and loose a fit. What a disappointment and waste of my time for a $15 gift even if you do get your shipping paid. It's still gotta go back."

"I purchased 2 tree frogs and one parrot. They are BEAUTIFUL. Yes, they are all different, since the woods have different grains and slightly different colors. SOme have more contrasting wood grains, tones, etc. I have one frog that I LOVE and the other is really nice..... but i think anyone would be happy to get either. They are nicely made and the woods are beautiful. I LOVE the tree frog... he makes me smile every time I look at him. I'm ordering 2 more frogs and one cat, and will give these as gifts.... but I'm keeping my one tree frog with all the contrasting woods..... he's a knockout! I highly recommend.... I think the price is very reasonable for what you are getting.
For those who want to put something in the little cut out inside... the parrot (who is very beautiful and uses all the different woods) has a slightly larger cut out than the frog ... it's a little longer."

"I bought these as christmas gifts. I was surprised when i got the items just how nice they were. i was just going to use them to sneak little gifts in but they are really wonderful by themselves. I was 100% please. I had no problem with cracks or discoloration and they were packaged well. I bought the tree frog and cat. The cat has a really big storage area- great for jewelry, etc."

"I got butterfly,parrot and fish. The butterfly was light in color. I would of liked the darker one. It's hard to put gift cards in it. The fish was the best one. The parrot was a little small in size. I will keep them because my daughter saw them and liked it. So I kept the other 2 for my sons. GREAT IDEA."

"I bought for my girlfriend who loves birds & is celebrating a "big" special birthday in December. The craftsmanship and woods used to make this item are spectacular! There is enough room to 'hide' the other part of her gift--a pair of 18K gold earrings. What I really like about the puzzle box is that she'll have a keepsake from her "big" special day. QVC's write-up is accurate and thank you QVC for offering this item!"

"After seeing the on air presentation that stated you could put money or a
gift card inside, I order four different puzzle boxes for my
grandchildren. I had hoped to put gift cards inside for each or their
favorite stores. The boxes I received are beautiful and well crafted
but under no circumstances can a gift card fit inside as stated. The
area is only big enough for folded money or a small trinket. Even
though they are very nice, I am sending them back because they will not
serve the purpose I intended for them."

"I collect puzzle boxes and was surprised at the price of these. Now I know why. The wood used is very good and the boxes are very pretty. But they are so poorly constructed they are no good as puzzle boxes. The box should be so tight that no one would know they weer puzzle boxes, but these just fall apart when you pick them up. Disappointing"

"I saw the tree frog box, and loved it. I thought it was so cute.
I purchased two of them, both had defects. On the first one the box top, and bottom did not fit together. There was a 1/2 inch gap in the back, and the puzzle piece was stuck. The second one had a crack in the leg, and the varish was peeling off the top.
I was very disappointed.
I sent both of them back."

"Ok, I loved the parrot and so did my husband when he received it as a gift. I was able to put the keychain that I had engraved for him inside the box, but now, 2 months later the carved pieces on the top are falling off. It is like the glue has dried up and turned to dust. So far 2 of the pieces have fallen off and I agree with another review, the puzzle piece is real loose.
I would recommend this because it is unique and not expensive, but beware."
