Quality:  Fair

  - Missing pieces:  None

What I liked:  This was a fun and challenging image to work on.  It turned out to be more difficult than we expected and took us just over a day to complete.  There are not that many different colors, and it is often very difficult to figure out where a piece goes from the poster.  Because the puzzle is round the piece shape is quite interesting, somewhat between a typical ribbon cut and a random cut.  

What I didn't like:  Low quality pieces.  They are thin and difficult to pick up.  The quality of this puzzle was slightly better than the first puzzle in this set.

The fit is very loose, and you cannot generally move segments of pieces without them falling apart.  I did not notice any false fits, but that is typical for a...

Sunset in Venice - Big Ben (Milton Bradley) 1000 pieces (#61)
