There was only one customer who wrote a review for this puzzle ring, and she granted it a perfect 5.0-star rating. She also gave it 5.0-stars each for its durability, fun factor, and educational value.

The reviewer actually labeled herself a “puzzle hound,” so that should give you an idea of how much she liked puzzles. She described this ring as a fun puzzle, and said that it felt as if she had completed a piece of jewelry when her hands found which positioning would result in the puzzle being completed. She described the ring as being larger than a typical finger, but she felt that it was truly a work of art.

Since it is made of cast metal, you will also have no trouble keeping it with you for many years to come. Just be sure to keep a watchful eye as the pieces typically come apart rather easily. For the price, you will definitely enjoy this challenging puzzle, and its portability adds to its appeal and value, as you can certainly enjoy it on the road or wherever you please.
