Yes…The pieces are smaller than the usual ones. Actually smaller pieces can be a blessing for it saves space on the table and when sorting in different bowls. This makes a larger puzzle easier to make but more time is needed. Smaller pieces I found harder at first to manipulate . See pictures of various sizes.In fact my puzzle came directly from the manufacturer if I am correct. So it was less than 2 weeks. Which shortened the delivery date. I even had a follow up email from the company directly from them. This is pleasing for me. They do care.To me the puzzle picture in Amazon was brighter than what came to me. So I was a-bit disappointed. The bright colours were the focal point of why I loved the picture. But in the end it didn’t matter. It was still enjoyable.When I opened up the box there were 2 bags of pieces maybe…for each half? Yikes to no poster so… the one picture on the box is all you get.I left the puzzle for a day or 2 for the smell for me was strong.When the pieces were put together they stayed together when lifted to join another parts of the picture.

Quality of the puzzle is good. Assembled size is significantly smaller than usual 3000 piece puzzles. I didn't find the smaller size a problem, I adapted quickly and actually liked that fact it takes up less table space. However, this may bother those who are used to larger pieces.
