Have you ever done a Jiggy puzzle? Which one from their collection do you think you would most want to do?
congrats on 20.000 subs
OMG they are all beautiful, I'm sure I would enjoy anyone !!
Have you seen Kodak’s World’s Largest Puzzle that’s 51,300 pieces??!!!
Hi Karen! Im doing a puzzle rn that you are supossed to color when your done and its black and white (The pieces look basicly the same) do you have any tips?
Amanda Vellali m
That stop motion at the beginning was amazing, must have taken you ages!
It definitely took a while!
yes, I would love to see a video on how you do some of your stop motion segments and other video editing tricks! love your channel!
Kristie Lent its actually really easy just time consuming, you take a picture remove a piece take a picture and so in until you finish
Wouldn't you just need to keep the video rolling while you remove pieces? Just make sure to get your hands out of the frame between each piece. Then you can edit the whole thing.
@@ironcito1101 exactly - the editing would have taken a very long time. And taking apart a jigsaw piece by piece is more difficult than it looks.
The package is amazing. It looks really nice. The whole thing looks like it has a high quality standard. But it is so disappointing seeing the pieces itself... I would expect a better quality for this price. The pieces should be the thing which has the best quality, not the package.
"Who care" for the product if the shine box have already sold it.
I agree. The pieces should be made out of glass or some industrial strength cardboard
and the pictures are boring as hell, nothing worth framing except the package...
Me, otoh, am like:
Karen: "...with a price tag to match..." me: Uh oh...
Karen: "$48." me: Oh! I was kind of anticipating a 3 digit number...
Yeah, didn't the gradient puzzles cost like 60$?
@@Phenrex the color changing one is almost 100 dollars lol
Same!
Yeah but guy's it's a puzzle..it shouldn't be expensive in the first place...let alone $100
@@maichka15 but you are also paying for the artist's work, so why not. Also the puzzle has a really nice packaging (that thing is not plastic!). Although I don't get the 100 dollars gradient puzzles because why? But I do get the designed puzzles like the crypt or those >4 corner pieces puzzles.
Thank you for this most excellent review. I say that because you can tell that you're not just giving all positive comments on it. I like how you're showing us all the negative points as well. Also doing the puzzle and showing us those little fine details that really matter to some people. A fair and honest review. Everything you said about the puzzle looks exactly as you say. I sort of think the puzzle pieces need to snap together a little bit more tighter, at least that is my opinion from the way it looked in the video I would appreciate a more tighter puzzle piece fit.
Steve Kay I can’t help but wonder if the tiny gaps/loose fit between pieces is intentional to allow spaces for the glue to infiltrate and hold everything together, since that’s clearly how they’re marketing the product to be finished.
Honestly, the puzzle pieces in the glass jar is an amazing piece of decor in itself!
Hi Karen! I'm sure this story applies to many people right now, but I've gotten really into puzzles since all this quarantining kicked in. That's how I found your channel! Just wanted to drop a nice note and say I think you do a really good job of being a fair reviewer - both about packaging and process - in your videos. Love your Instagram too. Thank you!
Thank you so much!
And she is so sweet and cheerful!
New York
I'm sure the manufacturing cost of the packaging is many, many times that of the puzzle itself. Shame, really.
Packaging is part of their marketing strategy, I actually love it
at least it is a glass jar, not plastic. it can be reused for lots of things. and the metal piece is used for glue spreading (and can be used fo that in the future) so its not a complete waste
Yeah better just have non-colored boring with no design packages, right? xD Let people have nice and beautiful things, there is no shame in neat designs. Makes world a bit more interesting place, and people who don’t want to pay for the packages, they can use their money for something else. No-one forces you to spend your money on this.
@@ivonnelomeli Packaging is a waste...and as you said...a strategy...$40 for a crappy quality puzzle all because the packaging is pretty.
This puzzle reflects our Instagram-based culture: looking good is all that matters.
The packaging is higher quality than the product inside? That's not a good look.
The packaging gives off "get the bottle at Ikea, then put puzzle pieces in it, get some cheap glue and then charge $40+"
We just discovered a puzzel called accident. Its clear and looks like broken glass that will be an adventure
i thought it was an actual puzzle
@@fernandac5749 It is! It's a clear acrylic puzzle by Yelldesign.
I don't think $50 is too much for that I think it's a really awesome idea plus you can use that glass tube as a vase so to me I'm getting a piece of art and I'm also getting a puzzle that I get entertainment from plus I get a vase that's a pretty good deal
Personally, I'd rather have a premium quality puzzle in an average quality container than an average quality puzzle in a premium quality container.
I really appreciate how thorough your reviews are especially pointing out all of the pros and cons.. thx!
Hi
Several days ago, I looked at Jiggy's website and considered ordering a puzzle. I was curious but the cost is high. So what a coincidence for me....when you posted your review. Still undecided about purchasing. I just received my first Inner Piece puzzle. Thanks for information on their company. And I did watch your entire video...word is "New York". Blessings to New York..in my thoughts and prayers.
The designs are cute, but nah, I wouldn't spent $50 on a puzzle, especially with that quality. In my country I can have a nice Ravensburger, Educa or Cobble hill (really top quality as far as the pieces go) for ~$15. Clemontini are also a good brand, I can get them for around $10-12, or sometimes even $5-6 when they sell it in lidl. I am talking about 1000 pieces, or in the last case - sometimes even 2000 pieces.
One of the most satisfying things about completing a jigsaw puzzle is running your hand over it at the end. The texture of all the pieces fitting snugly together under your fingers just hits me in the right way.
i love the "the pieces don't seem to fit together as SNUGGLY as I was expecting..." :)
Oh my goodness, I can’t believe I paid $48 plus shipping for a puzzle, but I did. Love your reviews, I would never found Ziggy without you. Thanks
Hi Karen! I’m from Singapore and totally love your channel! I used to puzzle when I was a kid but lost touch with that hobby as I grew up. Thanks to Covid-19, I’ve reunited with my childhood hobby and started puzzling again. Thanks for sharing your reviews and insights with us. Totally geeking out :P Oh yes, I definitely can’t wait to travel to New York again after the pandemic is over. Stay safe!! 💕🇸🇬
I've been to NEW YORK...! I have one puzzle waiting to frame once Covid calms down...Clemontoni Hokusai 1000 piece...superb quality and I like the rounded corner pieces..!!
Nearly finished the Cloudberries Gradient 1000 so looking forward to your 2000 piece review. Love your nails in the close up....stay safe and take care 👍👍👍 x
the slim packaging seems really neat, especially in terms of reducing waste and saving space -- in case you live in a smaller apartment or a room, as it seems like itd fit nicely on a bookshelf unlike most puzzle boxes. however, other than that the package is rather boring and probably wouldnt catch my eye in a physical store unless i saw the front of it. would love to see more companies do a minimalist style!
I don't know how I stumbled across this video but I am delighted by the unapologetic nerdy-ness of it. Lovely review!
Today I received my first JIGGY puzzle, Juneteenth. I’m impressed with the puzzle of course, but also the box & the glass jar. Both are keepers! These are definitely wall art! I prefer to laminate my puzzles rather than glue them. Overall, I love these puzzle and see more of them in my future and on the wall!! 😊Thanks for sharing!
As a new york area puzzler, raised by puzzlers, and friends with puzzlers, i’ve experienced quite a few puzzles. Packaging is always nice, but i prefer packaging that enhances the puzzle experience (plastic storage bag, puzzle poster, sturdy box, etc.). I’m a sucker for a puzzle with quality pieces that fit well, don’t delaminate and feel comfortable to the touch. So i guess this all puts me in the category of thumbs down for this line of puzzles.
Loved the video and the thoughtful positioning of filming so we could see the entire puzzle. Karen, you’re the best! p.s. on your recommendation i purchased a few Pomegranate puzzles, and have been working on one during covid lockdown. Great recommendation!
For me, they are too expensive and at this time there is no image I would want on my wall. They look they would be fun to do though. With the over the top packaging, they would make a beautiful gift.
It would be fun to do a puzzle of New York, but if I were going to hang one on the wall, I'd pick Bathing with Flowers. I love that you left in the bit about the leaf blower approaching. Random things like that make me smile.
Hi Karen! I love the packaging! Never tried this brand before, but I am ordering one right now! This one with NEW YORK streets seems a fun one to do! Thank you for your videos!
Codeword New York I’m sending greetings from Berlin Germany and just want to say thank you for the structured and organised way you are doing your videos. It’s fun watching while I do a jigsaw puzzle myself. 👍🏻🥰👍🏻
Before I found your channel, I said I wanted to start doing more puzzles and I’m so happy I found tour channel bc I’m def gonna ask for one of these puzzles as a gift! Thank you so much for your consistent reviews!!
NEW YORK!!!
Hi Karen
Thank you for inspiring me to buy puzzles and do them. Today I ordered 3 cobble hill puzzles and the eeboo Victorian lady. I love your videos. Keep making them 💓💓
Love from the other side of the world : Bahrain 🇧🇭
Your channel inspired me to do jigsaws again. I am not sure why I stopped doing this for the past ~15 years, but seeing your videos inspired me to start this hobby again 😊
I'd love to see you try puzzles from Heye. They have a lot of fun ones with images from famous cartoonists, but not only. I absolutely love them and I think you would like some of their puzzles.
Loads of love from Romania🇷🇴! You rock girl! I love your channel! ❤️
I definitely need to try that brand! There are just so many to cover!
Im definitely in jiggy’s target audience and I’ve splurged on 3 Jiggy puzzles throughout quarantine: bathing with flowers, portrait design 091, and one of the hand-painted originals. They’re really nice and fancy indeed, though I had the issue of a few pieces peeling apart too on one of those three. They were all fun to do and I love the jars! Oh yeah, and New York :)
OMG the one with the flamingo! I love it, i need it, it's sold out :D There are puzzles I like doing more than once, but I would love doing the flamingo one and hanging it up!
That is awesome I absolutely love that tube with the Cork you could use that for so many things 💜💚💟💛💙
This was a cool and imaginative puzzle of New York. I have glued a puzzle to hang up before, but it doesn’t happen often and would need to be a special puzzle.
Considering the average price of posters in that general size, and regular puzzles of the same size, I'm honestly *extremely* shocked with how cheap these puzzles are, it's no wonder they have to skimp somewhere because even with how they have things now their profit margin must either be quite small or even in the negative
My guess on the white backing for the puzzle is to help it look pretty in the glass tube. Great video and review!
Hi karen! I just found ur channel and I already love it! I forgot all about how fun puzzles were until one of ur vids popped up in my recommended I really want to do a puzzle now but I dont have any... I guess online ones will do!
Thank you for this video on the New York puzzle. Nice work Karen!
I just started watching your puzzle videos since I am self isolating during the pandemic. New York !!
Very well done. You love puzzles as much as I do. I enjoyed the way you presented this video with stop motion as well. Not everyone is OK doing this type of puzzle so Kudo's to you. Even the most expensive puzzle pieces have problems, it is because many pieces are handled many times and tend to weaken as they are handled. Nothing glue can't fix. still, it is very enjoyable for people who love doing this type of puzzle with the bonus of stress relief. Have a great day.
New York! l love all of your videos. l have done a few puzzles myself while we are quarantined. tfs !
New York Thank you for your videos. I’m binging them while I wait for my puzzle to get here. 👍
I am the father of 4 and in a value/cheap phase right now. So the price would knock me out of considering one of these. I really enjoy your channel, I was finishing a frustrating puzzle this week and looked up puzzles on You Tube and found your channel. Watched some that you posted in the past and look forward to seeing more. New York.
I love this channel, it’s the most wholesome content ever. New York should be quaking.
Thank you for the honest review. I like this New York design the best out of the ones they offer. But I think I prefer cloudberries designs personally. The pieces not fitting perfectly is a bummer. I think I’d make a lot of mistakes because I’m not as good at puzzles as you are.
New York! I loved the video - you make me want to puzzle - i so appreciate that you've turned puzzling into such a shareable art form! Thank you, Karen - Truly, Zack
Thank you for watching! I hope you get to do a puzzle soon!
New York. I just found your channel and it is fantastic! Great review of this puzzle. I had never heard of Jiggy puzzles. They look interesting.
Been watching your videos& was excited because my son just got a super cool outer space/galaxy puzzle for Christmas. With how big the box was, I was assumed it had a lot of pieces. Made my husband go out in the cold and get it- come to find out, it was 48 pieces
Hi! Recently found your channel and I’m enjoying your videos. Thank you!
These are beautiful. I don't have any puzzle artwork on the wall but I think one would be nice with the rest of our art. We live in New Zealand and I've always wanted to visit New York. Maybe not at the present time but definitely when the world can safely travel again.
Thank you so much for your puzzle videos! Ive never been to New York, but I know a few nurses out there. I hope they're all safe and sound.
Thanks for the upload today. I love your channel and I loved this review. That's a puzzle that I may be interested in. I really like the image...
Thank you for the insightful review of Jiggy. This NEW YORK puzzle is beautiful, just not my taste to have on my wall, nor did I see one that caught t
My fancy to actually glue and keep. Gorgeous packaging though!
New York! Woot! Loved the video and you are so much fun to listen to! Have a great rest of your weekend!
What a lovely piece of NY art! Great packaging. Off to check out the image options. Thanks, Karen. :-)
Wow it’s a really beautiful puzzle with unique artwork! I think at this moment I wouldn’t be able to justify spending that much money on a puzzle. Although I may order some glass tubes for ikea to start displaying my puzzles not in use 😊 thanks for the review!
I would expect a MUCH better quality puzzle for the price. Seems like the quality was spent in the over thought packaging. Just based on the price and packaging I wouldent purchase-I use the box to keep the pieces together while I’m doing the puzzle.
New York..... as always enjoyed watching your puzzle videos. Kool puzzle very fancy! Your fav fan Christine....
Love your videos! New York must be nice at this time of year.
I wonder if the slight gaps between pieces are on purpose so that they create little glue reservoirs for when you're expected to mount it?
New York. Great video. Super production values. Really love the content.
Thank you for rewiev. Thinking about adding more puzzles to my collection
Glueing puzzles was a great past time as a Chicago kid, not a NEW YORK kid sorry, with a friend of the family...I remember doing a lion long one and we framed it and all.
Thanks for the memory flashback!
Great introduction! I like all of the images for puzzling purposes, including your New York one, but if I was picking one for the wall it would be a toss between the garden or the astronaut! 💗🚀🌿
OMG I love the spreader! It could also be used as a spatula to move puzzle sections across the table. !
I know this is older but.....New York! Lol loved the puzzle packaging and the art. I too find it annoying when pieces have gaps and start peeling too.
That was a beautiful picture on the puzzle I’m gonna have to check them out and see if I can find one I like. It would be nice if they had one of New York central park
You just showed up in my feed, completely randomly!!! Just wanted to let you know 😊 you and your channel about to blow up I reckon! This is certainly what I needed rn
It was the 1000 piece color changing puzzle btw ("Doing the color changing ..."), in case that helps you plan out future content strategy 😘
Whoever would have thought that one day we would have luxury puzzles. They are so pretty.
Just found your channel and I love it!! Your awesome and I love the content. Have an awesome day!! New York!! 🙂
I love "New York". Thanks for taking the time and effort that you put into your videos, Karen. I always look forward to your next one. Take care:)
I think the flamingo one =) id do the puzzle but I wouldn't put it up on my wall.. Got to love New York!
=D
OMG - this is the one I’ve been waiting for! I’m hoping to get some of these but who knows whether they’d make it to Australia. I’d be very happy to fork out bigly for them - they’re lovely. The shipping from New York will cost a fortune! Excellent review - enjoyed it.
I am new to your channel, but I love this New York Puzzle!
Omg those puzzles look so pretty. Bye Karen keep on posting I love your vids 😊
I loved the New York puzzle in the glass tube. A bit pricey but lately with the availability of puzzles drying up, I may need to begin throwing money at the problem. In light of current events you might want to do a special video for those of us who are now sitting around with nothing to do and rediscovering out childhood hobby of Puzzling. Great Video!!!
I already made a video like that! ua-cam.com/video/NGYU9b_ltpE/v-deo.html
Amo tus videos!!!! Siempre los veo, Karen
Maybe it's only me, but I think those little holes at the joints are for the glue ...especially if u have to use the glue on the actual image of the puzzle; which technique I never saw before..interesting 🤔😊😊😊👍
The Ravensburger glue is also put directly on top of the puzzle but it's more fluid, so I'm not really surprised by that. When I first glued a puzzle together I was a bit shocked that the glue put like white veil on top of it, but once it's dry it's invisible.
In that case you only glue the pieces together so it doesn't fall apart when you pick it up. You turn it around put normal glue on it and press it onto the background where you want to glue it on.
@@anjagoller you put the glue on top? I always glued the back of my puzzles.
@@Skittl1321 The glue I have is meant to be put on top.
It's so interesting that you're looking at the picture while doing the puzzle. I'm so used to digital jigsaws as where I live, every puzzle is 40 usd lol, and with digital jigsaws you see the image only in the beginning if at all (well some apps let you use a power up or just look but I don't bother)
Well no wonder it takes a while lol
Cooongratts!!! this was a superduper video!!!! lovely work
Not sure if I would display any of them, maybe the astronaut one, because I love doing puzzles over and over and over again so I never glue my puzzles. But I love the idea of owning a "fancy puzzle". Thanks for the review! Coincidentally I'm from New York ;)
Excellent review on this New York themed puzzle 🧩
Hi Karen! Just literally found your channel and, as someone who likes to do jigsaw puzzles, thought I would check you out! This company seem to have a new take on puzzles, don't they? I will be viewing their website when I get a minute! Thank you for a really entertaining video and, yes, I have subscribed! Btw, New York
New York! The packaging is beautiful, such a piece of art.
Hey I’m from Poland and I love watching your videos!😘
I love doing lots of jigsaw puzzles and I love your video and I'm a puzzle parson too and great it's very good for your mind keep the good work Karen ❤❤🧩🧩🥰🥰
the way you work puzzles is so satisfying!
Chicago
Cool review. I am wondering if the back is paper in case you want to have the work matted and framed?
Hi Karen puzzles, congrats for 20k subscribers
Thank you for being one of them!
New York. Like the brand as you say I’m always looking for new things and the idea is great but expensive if you are not going to hang it. So very important to choose the best picture to hang on your wall. I like the experience of learning with all your tips. Thank you Karen!
Great video! Would love to visit New York one day 💕
Really enjoy the channel, one thing I have to complain about though is that you show the puzzle fully completed at the beginning of the video.
New York I enjoyed the video! Nice work Karen!
Hi Karen! New York...I like your videos! Congrats on 20k 🧩🎉
It always blows my mind that you consider $48 expensive for a puzzle, but then I remember you primarily do cardboard puzzles, and it makes more sense xD
Really nice review, youve got a nice order in which you try to cover everything that needs to be said and it makes sense when following along, listening, its also nice to hear things from you that i can only agree at, like that the pieces need to have the highest quality and also the fact that you dont like to use the glue. As a kid i did that 2-3x with my puzzles but in the end i learned that for me they are more a toy than a piece of art, so i shouldnt do that at all (and nowadays i use to compare it with the lego movie, where the message also is to not glue such toys together as theyre meant to be creatively used more than once). to your question if i would personally puzzle something like that: i wouldnt buy it for the price (i measure money/puzzle time), i wouldnt use it as a piece of art at home so i wouldnt frame it, and the picture is... ok. not something i would really like to puzzle. same as you, i like colorful puzzles but mostly colorful environments, and i know you dislike most of the landscape puzzles, but ones with a beautiful sunset for example are the ones that always catch my attention in a store. (but currently im on the 18,000 piece magical bookshelf xxl puzzle so yeah, i guess i wont have to buy a puzzle for some time now :D)
oh btw, dont get me wrong, i love *new york* and have done puzzles of it before, just not that pecific puzzle design that much
I'm liking the matt finish :)
New York. I absolutely love ur videos Karen they're the best ❤
"New York, New York, what a wonderful town..." Good morning, Karen. My Honey and I have watched many of your videos since the shelter in place was enacted here in Michigan;. This morning we watched your workout and agreed that you're in good shape. We both enjoyed your fancy puzzle post and I wondered if the jar that came with that puzzle is tall enough for dried spaghetti?
You inspired us to buy a 3000 piece Ravensburger "African Animal World" which is very pretty, and we are enjoying quite a bit. You're da bomb!
