Jigsort 1000

Unfortunately, our friends in the world of jigsaw puzzle manufacturing overseas are not quite so conventional and the sizes of their puzzles vary considerably. Most 1000 piece puzzles from America will fit OK but Springbok, SunsOut and White Mountain all make some puzzles that are a little too large; the same goes for Crown and Andrews in Australia. If you are ever lucky enough to get hold of some of the outstandingly beautiful jigsaws from Japan then you will find that these too are oversized for our 1,000 piece Jigsort.

Have no fear! Our Jigsort 1500 is suitable for all the above and is the right choice if you are likely to want to make these outsize puzzles.

Many puzzlers do a range of different size puzzles and the 500 size is particularly popular in the UK. It's worth remembering that if you have a Jigsort 1000 then you can happily make-up 500 piece puzzles but if you buy a Jigsort 500 then you have 'shot your bolt' for the 1000 piecers!

The complete Jigsort 1000 weighs in at a little over 6 kilos (14lbs) and the majority of the weight is in the case. Whilst the puzzle is being used the removable board will be out of the case and the board is light enough to be easily moved from one place to another. Remember that the function of the case is simply to protect the puzzle in storage and in transit from one place to another.

We thoroughly recommend the Jigsort 1000 for use with our jigsaw table. It is the easiest thing in the world to quickly remove the board when the table is required for another purpose.

The lists below will help you sort through the labyrinth of different sized jigsaws from the various manufacturers.
