I bought this for a gift for a friend who is obsessed with both puzzles and pickles. I was suprised at the size when I got it out of the package, but the longer I look at it, I think it's perfect. It's actually the size of a pickle jar. The colors and faces are great and I love how there is a key on the back side. If you have either a puzzle fan, or a pickle fan (or both), this is worth it!
