The overview about this company is excellent and accurate. I completed my first puzzle from this company and found it high quality, however, as the review here says, the pieces aren’t tight fits. I was impressed with the fact you can request a replacement puzzle piece, which they will send you free of charge. The replacement form is on the back of the enclosed box lid stand. Directions on how to identify the missing piece are on the back of the puzzle box.
