I'm glad to know about Spin Master puzzles, a brand I haven't heard of before. The "Gloria Rose General Store" image looked like a fun one to do. In my opinion, the Ceaco brand of puzzles either has improved in quality overall OR else their line of "Night Spirit" puzzles by artist Lisa Parker have a particularly good quality. Previously, I got rid of some of my older Ceaco puzzles because I was not happy with their quality. Then I was gifted (Ceaco) Lisa Parker's "Magical Emporium" (550 pieces). I loved it so much that I bought her "Hubble Bubble" (550 pieces), "Purrlock Holmes" (550 pieces), and "Night Spirit" (1500 pieces) puzzles. I guess I went a little crazy and maybe it was the mystical and magical mysterious cats that did the trick rather than the standard images of cute kitties in baskets. Who knows? Anyway, I'm quite happy with these Ceaco puzzles.

I don't hate Ceaco. I actually consider them my guilty pleasure as they make up most of my collection and still buy them every now and then😂. Sometimes you just can't beat their images, they're great. And the price is right. I just wish their hold was better and overall quality would be a bit more consistent. My favorite Ceaco experience was a 1500piece Disney Classics puzzle. I was so surprised how well it held together. But others who have worked on the same exact puzzle said their experience was completely opposite. Hopefully they are starting to improve their quality.

Very interesting vid. I had never seen or heard of this brand until watching you today. I do have many Buffalo and Ceaco Puzzles. I must be extraordinarily lucky because I haven’t had any issues with Ceaco including the last one I bought from Walmart for only about $11. The thing that keeps drawing me back again and again to Ceaco is the “cuteness” of their puzzles. I like so many of their images. I really love your videos; they’re always interesting and inspiring!!

Thank you so much! 🤗🤗🤗 You're right, they have such a fantastic selection of images. I also have many Ceaco puzzles even though I don't think too highly of their quality. I find it very inconsistent, but then again, it's good for the price.

You always have great puzzle reviews!

I say you are spot on with your ratings. I've done Spin Master before and they are decent. Not the best but not the worst. I gotta say Ceaco is one of the most inconsistent brands out there. I have gotten ones that were really good and I have gotten ones that were complete junk. Nice review!

Thank you so much! Spin Master is definitely a step up from Ceaco, but not that much of a step up. I absolutely love the image selection Ceaco offers (that's really the only reason why I have so many), but I just wish they were better and more consistent. But then again, can't expect too much for the overall price.

I like Spinmasters! I've usually found them at Wal-Mart. And the price fits my budget. It's a lot like Buffalo Games and Masterpieces. And maybe Ceaco. I'm not thrilled with Ceaco.

I agree. Ceaco does have a great selection of images though and their price is good. But I just wish their quality was slightly better and more consistent.

i didn’t realize it was a store until you said so. i thought for sure you were going to say it was your house, lol. i’ve only tried one spin masters, but i only did about half of it before i got rid of it. it wasn’t an image i was ready for at that time. i got that one from target, but haven’t seen much if any from that brand since

😂I mean, it could be my house if I decided to open up my own general store. It's really not a bad looking place and it's real big 🤔🤔🤔 There's always a very limited quantity of these puzzles when I'm shopping at the usual stores like Walmart/Target, which I find interesting.

Haven’t tried this brand yet, good to know where it falls compared to ceaco and buffalo when I’m out looking for puzzles. Thanks for sharing.

I don’t think I have done a Spin Master brand. I’d try it! Here I am working on another Ceaco puzzle because I can’t pass up the image or the price. You do get what you pay for, but I realize every puzzle I do can’t cost $30! 😂

It's certainly worth a try, especially considering they are not very expensive. But I don't blame you constantly working on Ceaco puzzles. They carry a great selection of images, and really, most of my collection is actually Ceaco. I consider them my guilty pleasure LOL.

I've never heard of Spin Master either

I only ever see a handful of Spin Masters puzzles when I'm checking out the usual stores like Walmart/Target. But I do find it interesting how there's a good number of people who haven't even heard of it.

Love your videos. I dont like spinmaster. I had 2 multi sets. Pepsi and Hershey. I took hershey to goodwill and threw the pepsi in the trash. ( was moving didnt have time to deal with it ) i dont like the thin pieces and youre right. There is no snap. I like ceaco. i dont have alot of that brand. I tend to collect Buffalo, ravensburger and masterpiece. Keep up the good videos

Thank you🤗 I'm not surprised your multi pack was so bad. From my experience so far, I feel like multi sets tend to always be lower quality no matter the brand. I know I tend to speak low of Ceaco, but they are, as I now say, my guilty pleasure. I have a ton of them in my collection even though I don't think too much to their quality. But they have such a great selection and the price is right.

Great video but hoe do you rank these 3 puzzles with Masterpieces. I find masterpieces has a shaky fit.

Enjoyed the review. Clicked on your Discord link and it is invalid. I assume it has expired and needs to be renewed
