Original - Large Puzzle Mat & Board, 2 Sorters & Organisers - Portable, Lightweight & Easy to Store Non-Slip Felt Jigsaw Mats - Up to 1000 Pieces Portapuzzle Board - 57x 80cm

A great product for any jigsaw puzzle lover like me ! I can now happily do my puzzles without the bother of having to move them with the risk of the pieces dislodging. I just place the pads over the puzzle, fold the panels over them and push it all under the sofa. It will be ready to continue when I want. Nothing moves. I really don't know why I have n't bought this before. I would definitely recommend it as excellent value for money and good quality.

Good quality item. I brought this to keep my paintings in, so they stay flat and crease free. Works perfectly. Good size. Velcro is secure.

My first purchase was one of those felt mats with a large cardboard tube, designed to let you roll up the partially complete jigsaw and come back to it later. I returned it for a full refund. Having managed to put together around a quarter of a 1,000 piece puzzle, I needed the space for a while on my coffee table. As I rolled up the jigsaw (carefully!), I could see the pieces moving and coming apart. With only around 200-250 pieces in place, it still took me 30 minutes to repair the mess the cardboard roll had made of the puzzle. I gave up and ordered this Portapuzzle case instead after reading the reviews. The puzzle I have been doing is a standard 70cm x 50cm and consists of 1,000 pieces. This version of the Portapuzzle is designed for puzzles up to 1,000 pieces and they do fit perfectly, with a few centimetres around the edge to spare. This thing is huge when opened fully with two connected flaps either side of the main, internal mat and two extra mats which are independent of it all. You have loads of space to assemble the puzzle and place interesting pieces from the box around the place while you find out where to put them. It all fastens really securely with long velcro strips and holds the jigsaw in place well. I slide mine under the coffee table, but you could store it vertically too. I did test this briefly and had no issues with pieces moving. Although, I'm not convinced they would stay in place if you had it stood vertically and knocked it. The whole of the inside is a pale beige, soft felt material and the pieces stay in place nicely. As the background is so pale, it makes looking at the pieces much easier on the eyes than the awful green of the felt mat that came with the roll. You could conceivably have this on your knee while sat on the sofa to do a puzzle as the whole thing is quite rigid and stable. My only criticism, and it is quite an annoyance, is the ridge down the middle. I noticed one or two others have mentioned this too. From the top to the bottom of the main, central mat inside the case is a slight ridge where the felt material doesn't sit flush with the underlying cushioning. This means that puzzle pieces lift in a line all the way down the very centre of the puzzle (assuming it's a large 1,000 piece jigsaw). Is it a dealbreaker? No, because you can kind of push it down and it doesn't cause the pieces to move out of place. However, it does mean they lift and you can't ignore it. How annoying this will depend on your patience levels :) Is the Portapuzzle worth the £20 I paid? I'd say definitely, yes. It's easy to work with, perfect for storing partial puzzles and doesn't ruin them when you want to revisit. I only knocked off one star in this review because of the ridge. If they sorted that with a design tweak, I would happily award five stars.

Brilliant quality! Must have during christmas time! Very solid and secure

Good and does the job. I am very satisfied and I highly recommend it.

holds a 1000 piece puzzle without any slipping and movement, the additional piece holders are an ideal size for a 500.

This 1000 piece puzzle board storage is perfect. I am glad I ignored the negative reviews. I have done two jigsaws on it now and had zero issues with the material and being able to move it around. I have left it stored both lying down but also vertical. No slipping of the part done puzzle. People saying that it doesn't fit a 1000 piece puzzle should maybe check the dimensions of the puzzle beforehand. There is a reasonable standard with regards the size, but you do get some weird ones which are either square or very wide. This board will fit 78cm wide by 53cm high. The one in my picture is 70 wide x 50 high. The trick to not having pieces fall out of position is to pull the cover tight when putting it away. I do not know just how much "throwing" it around can be done and not find your part done jigsaw in bits. I might try it with this one and feedback later ;-)

Great item for a good price. Good quality

Good product. Had it a few days. Exceptional grip on the puzzle pieces (at least initially). The two separate panels work well for sorting pieces, or for assembling small puzzles. Strong Velcro to hold things together. Have NOT tried to carry a partially assembled puzzle vertically yet. Although some reviews did not recommend that, we WILL try it to see. If working on a soft surface, like a bed or sofa, tell your kids not to reach across it while putting their weight on it; it's obvious it will bend, and might permanently deform it.

Idéal, ne bouge pas et très pratique

Fijn zo'n puzzelmat. Werkt perfect.
