    3.0 out of 5 stars 540 Piece Puzzleball - The Easiest Puzzle In The World , 16 Feb 2009
    By C. ASTIN (UK) - See all my reviews
    (REAL NAME)   
    Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
    This is not like a conventional jigsaw puzzle. The pieces are made out of plastic which makes it easier to construct and more durable. I was disappointed that each piece was numbered on the back which means you can cheat. In fact if I had known this beforehand I wouldn't have purchased it. As the pieces are numbered I think children will have more fun than adults as it isn't really a puzzle and it made it far too easy. I won't be buying another one. Once you have built the globe you can use it for reference e.g. Geography homework, to find countires etc. However some of the writing isn't clear on the edges of the pieces so if you are using it for homework you may have to check the spellings. I like the fact it had a V-shape stand as the little plastic tray/stand included isn't deep enough and the finished Globe can be knocked off easily.

    1.0 out of 5 stars There must be better ways of owning the world!, 22 Jan 2009
    Durability:1.0 out of 5 stars Fun:1.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
    I purchased this for an eight year old, thinking it would serve two purposes: a jigsaw that would be fun to put together, and a globe that would be durable and useful in the future. I would have been much better off purchasing a traditional jigsaw and a solid globe. The metal stand does not easily hold the finished article, and the plastic stand has proved much more useful. The pieces of this puzzle are quite small and fiddly, but not impossible to put together easily - until its nearly finished - what a nightmare! Its very difficult to actually put this together - and keep it together - and very frustrating in fact - as the last could of pieces don't seem to want to be with the others! I would not recommend purchasing a puzzle ball with so many small pieces - due to the difficulty in finishing it off! We live and learn!!!!!!!!!!!1

    5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely brilliant. Buy it immediately for great fun and learning, 27 Feb 2009

    Durability:5.0 out of 5 stars Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars Educational:5.0 out of 5 stars 
    Despite the rather mediocre and negative reviews bought this jigsaw and have found it my best buy in absolutely ages. Absolutely brilliant. The globe with the metal display is better than the tray one though the tray is included with the metal one for you to construct it on. Tray a bit shallow to permanently display so glad I bought this one. I bought it predominently to learn where everywhere is in the world and it has answered this requirement and more. Because it takes you a while to find the correct piece it imprints the location and which country. Because I dont use it as a jigsaw but as a learning device I have cheated using the fantastically useful numbers on the back and have put the "sea" areas together using the numbers. Also I have grouped all the pieces into their "100's" so dont waste endless time hunting. Just long enough to let the info sink in but not frustrating enough to forget. So you could just ignore the numbers and use it as a proper jigsaw or cheat a bit and learn countries and whereabouts. As for quality of pieces and design cant fault it. The pieces fit together well and whilst the writing a bit small (definitely need my glasses and good light) they are legible enough. A robust object and can visualise this being built and taken apart and built again many times - until I know where all my countries are anyway! Im 47 and a useful learning tool for me and I suspect for all except very small children. More a tool than a toy but still great fun nevertheless. I think everyone should have one!
