Amazon Is Slashing Prices on Popular 1,000-Piece Ravensburger Puzzles Once Again

If you’re anything like me, you might already have a stack of puzzles just waiting to be pieced together. The puzzle backlog is real, but it has yet to stop me from buying new puzzles every time Amazon has had a sale this year. Ravensburger puzzles especially are my overall favorite brand, and it’s hard to pass up something cool when there are discounts to be had.

The last time Amazon had a sale like this was back at the end of April, but the range of puzzle sizes was a lot wider. This time all of the worthwhile puzzles on sale are 1,000 pieces, so there are fewer intermediate options for younger audiences here. If you’re looking for something more challenging, however, I’ve picked out some of the best jigsaw options from the sale below.

The Best Puzzle Deals at Amazon Today

Although all of the puzzles I’ve listed here are the same puzzle count, not all of the discounts are the same. Price reductions range from 12-28% off depending on how expensive the puzzle was originally. It’s also worth noting that some of these deals are lightning deals, meaning there is a limited amount of stock available at that price. You’ll know which ones these are by the percentage claimed bar on the landing page. Regular deals are on here too that aren’t directly associated with the larger sale, like the Super Mario Challenge and the Pixar Puzzle. I’ve included those because they are just as good and have no stock limitations on them.

Is Ravensburger the best puzzle brand?

Plenty of different brands make puzzles, but Ravensburger is widely considered one of the very best jigsaw puzzle brands out there. This is in part due to the quality of each puzzle. The patented “Softclick” technology allows for you to hear an audible click each time you place a piece in the right place. Ravensburger also uses high-quality materials for each puzzle ensuring the pieces won’t be bent or broken when you open the box.

Ravensburger also has a partnership with Disney Warner Bros. that allows it to make some of the best franchise-specific puzzles around. Star Wars, Frozen, Lord of the Rings, DC comics, and more jigsaw puzzles like thiose will often come from Ravensburger.

Tips for Buying 1,000-Piece Puzzles

Buying a 1,000-piece puzzle is a commitment. It’s one that you can easily just put on a shelf and forget about, but actually starting and finishing it takes time. Unless you are a world champion puzzler, it’s going to take you more than one day to put one together. If you’re new to puzzling or are just looking for a few tips for buying a puzzle with 1,000 pieces or more, we’ve got you covered.

Make sure you have enough space

The first thing you should consider before buying a puzzle is whether or not you have a place to put it together. Given the amount of pieces, it can be hard to keep track of all of them at any given time. You’ll need ample space to both sort through and organize pieces and be able to leave or store it and come back to it later. If you don’t already have a table that is ideal for puzzling, there are quite a few puzzle boards and tables you can buy to remedy that. There are also jigsaw puzzle mats to roll up your puzzle and put it away without undoing all of your progress.

Make sure you actually like the image

Perhaps the more obvious tip for buying a large puzzle is to make sure you actually like the image you’re putting together before you make a purchase. A lot of puzzles feature a ton of tiny intricate details to keep you interested as you put it together, but some feature large swaths of single colors that could get tedious to put together. If you’re already investing a bunch of your time into finishing a 1,000-piece puzzle, pick something that you’ll be happy to see finished. There are also challenge puzzles, like the Super Mario option I featured above, that are going to get pretty boring quickly if you don’t like Mario’s face that much.

Invest in some puzzle glue

While most people put together puzzles just for the enjoyment of it all, it can also be fun to display the finished product once you’re done. This is especially true if the puzzle is depicting a work of art, rather than just a photograph. It is, after all, a cardboard poster that you’ve put together yourself. If you plan on displaying your puzzle after you finish, you’ll want to get yourself some puzzle glue to ensure the finished product actually stays together when you frame it.
