Good Puzzle Co Gardener's Nook – 500 Piece Jigsaw Puzzle Featuring Beautiful Artwork of Garden Shed During Spring

I am primarily reviewing this puzzle because of the number of 1-star reviews left by people who do not understand the brand and packaging. Because they do not understand it, they believe the puzzle is used, they give it one star and return it. The name of the company, the fact that it is an offshoot of Galison, the description of the product right on the box, all make the packaging quite clear to me. I wonder if some people purchasing this puzzle are just not avid puzzlers/familiar with brands, do not read anything on the packaging or a description of the product they purchased and so on, and therefore just do not understand the product.This is a product of "good puzzle co." by Galison. Right on the front of the box it says "good for you and the planet, too" with the icon for recycling. The box also states 1% of proceeds go directly to environmental non-profits. There is a logo for FSC - Forest Stewardship Council. This is a non-profit organization promoting responsible forest management and the FSC label on the product signifies that the materials used were sourced sustainably/responsibly, with benefits for the environment, society and the economy.All of that detail and information which is CLEARLY printed on the box should be more than enough of a clue as to why the puzzle pieces are not shipped in a plastic bag but in a paper bag instead. Apparently not though, so hopefully people will see this review and it will help.As far as the puzzle itself, I gave it five stars because there is no puzzle dust, the artwork is done by an actual artist (not A.I.), the artwork was colorful and cute, the pieces are sturdy and connect/lock properly and are in good condition. This puzzle is not necessarily the most challenging out there, but more of a leisurely puzzle that I enjoyed putting together to fritter away a few hours and some stress. :) Sometimes I am just in the mood for a breezy puzzle rather than a challenge.Highly recommended!

Love this puzzle! Image is clear with great color and great quality. Really enjoyed working it. Good Puzzle Co. is a Galison brand and has the same great quality Galison used to have and at a better price point. Wish they'd make more of them!

Such an adorable puzzle! I found this really enjoyable to put together and appreciated the fact that the pieces are in a paper bag that is easy to reuse instead of a plastic one that needs ripped open.

Great puzzle!

This puzzle also came in a white sack that was opened. There are 2 pieces missing. Second puzzle that has been this way.

I love the picture quality in this puzzle

This is the 3rd puzzle that has come in a paper bag. Doesn’t stay together either. Some have had a piece missing and another one had a extra piece

My puzzle box wasn’t sealed and the pieces were in a white paper bag. I asked for a refund because I couldn’t be sure all pieces were there. I did receive a refund promptly. I also need to add that Galison puzzles are pretty and they do come in a nice quality box.
