jigthingsJigboard 1000 – Jigsaw Puzzle Board for Puzzles up to 29.5” x 20.5”. Solid Board with Raised Edge for Most 1000 Piece Puzzles

I am an avid puzzle-maker and this product is just what I needed. I like to work on my puzzles on a movable surface rather than tying up a dining room table, etc. For years I have been working off of a flat board that only accommodated 18" x 24" puzzles. This pretty much limited me to 500 piece puzzles (sometimes 750 pieces). This board is PERFECT for 1000 piece puzzles and it has opened up a huge variety of selections for me.The board itself is 20-1/2" x 29-1/2" so almost any 1000 piece puzzle will fit perfectly. Most 1000 pc puzzles are 20x27 so you still have a little room to spare. I was concerned when other reviewers wrote that the pieces "really stuck to the board" as I did NOT want anything that would hold the pieces in place, etc. After receiving and using the board though, I know what they meant. The board is lined with a felt-like material so the pieces do not slide around while you are working on your puzzle. They are still easy to move around though as you position and re-position.The board has about a 1/2" to 3/4" lip around the border which is great for keeping pieces from falling off, yet not so high that it gets in the way while you are trying to work. It is very sturdy, yet not so heavy that you feel like you are "lugging" it around. I find it very easy to carry the board from room to room when necessary.This product is also available in other sizes, so if you are fond of working on very large 1500 piece puzzles, they have a board for that size as well.In short, highly recommend this product. Perfect size, great quality, easy to move, and a nice soft fuzzy surface to work with. LOL Enjoy!

This board (along with the puzzle table sold separately) is a great addition to building puzzles! The board has a velvet lining to keep your pieces from sliding, as well as a protective cover to lay over your puzzle when you're not building. It was a great birthday present for my mom!

A must have! I've had other boards, but this really is the best with the lip to keep pieces in and the flexible cover to keep the cats out! I really do love it. I purchased the table as well and it's one of the best purchases I've ever made. I have the larger board on my wish list - for some of those puzzles that just don't fit on this. I've had other puzzle boards, but they were cumbersome and even with folding up it seemed like some pieces were going astray.. this is super easy. and light enough to hold on your lap if you choose

This board is a really good idea for puzzlers. My whole family visited for the holidays and it was in constant use. The puzzle pieces stayed in place, were easy to pick up and were easy to see against the grey background color. Worked just as advertised and was very easy to move off the table when we had to. Seems to be well constructed. It's pretty expensive for what it is but I assume will last for many years.

This is a great invention ever made. The puzzle pieces don't fall out and don't move if you hold hanging. I love it cause i can now do my puzzles in the living room in my chair and not to big or heavy. I just can't say enough about this product. I'm doing a 500 piece puzzle on it right now and I have alot of room left. I haven't tried a 1000 piece one yet. So don't know if they fit on it yet. been mostly doing 500 piece ravensburger ones on it. Love the color of the felt makes it easier to see the color of the puzzle. I had the rollup ones and everytime I would roll it up the pieces would come undone.I just think after you get this you will never need to buy anything ever again. Just make sure you get the right size you want for the size puzzles you are doing.

Wish I’d known about these Jigboard puzzle boards years ago. They’re light weight, very sturdy and work exactly as stated. I can sit back and hold it in my lap and even prop it against a table. The puzzle pieces stay right in place! Keep in mind that this size board is for puzzles which measure 30 x 20 or smaller. Because I also do puzzles ( 24 x 30) with larger pieces I also purchased the 1500 piece JIGBOARD.

I bought just the board for a 1000 piece puzzle size and not the carrying case. It did come with the vinyl sheet to put over the puzzle if I do need to store it for a time. I have used the board several times for 500 piece puzzles. I like the firmness of the surface and the small lip on the board to keep pieces from falling off. The surface keeps the pieces from moving around. For sorting trays, I bought four cookie sheets from a dollar store. They work okay but pieces do slide around on them.

This was very good quality, came perfectly wrapped and smelled good? I know, right? smelled good - I think it was the fresh felt or wood, but the company that makes this takes pride in their work.I'd previousl bought one of those roll up puzzle saver things, and was very dissappointed when I opened that up. I couldn't make anything stay.So, I took a chance on this, and it is great. I am doing 500 piece and 1,000 piece puzzles on it easily. I don't know that is meant to travel outside so much, but we can easily move it around the house. The cat likes it, but I'm willing to share.The only downside, is the puzzles don't slide off easily if you want to save them or glue them afterwards. But, I'm willing to work around that too.I would buy this again, but I think with its quality, I won't need one for years and years. Go puzzles!!!!

Not sure why the current price is nowhere close to what I paid ($50) just over a week ago! It's a great investment for any puzzler - good quality & finish. Lightweight in a slim, low-profile design (just 1/2-inch thick) make it a huge bonus for condo life. Raised edges are just right too. The included JigMat is so useful! It's a two-sided cover that's black plastic on top and a matching felt on its reverse. This protects the work area when a puzzle is in progress and I need to store it under my sofa. I use its original box to store it safely.Dimensions given under item info. are inside the finished edges. as in, actual puzzle size. So, most of my 1000-pc puzzles fit on this board. Keep in mind, some 1000 pc puzzles can be bigger (check the side of the puzzle boxes). Printed instructions include how to restore shape if the board ever warps - weigh it down flat w/ heavy books for a day or two.Tip to help: I bought a folding, inclined bracket (ASIN# B07HDYH9CY) to use with this board.Puzzle shown: Jan Van Haasteren's Food Truck Festival.....beyond funny! :D Also from Amazon but unavailable. :-(

I wish that this was still available to purchase on Amazon. I bought this for my aunt who enjoys building jigsaw puzzles.It is very well constructed. It is covered in a felt material all the way around which prevents the pieces from sliding around. There is also a cover that can be put overtop of the puzzle pieces while in transit. It is not made out of cheap plastic material. It is sturdy with felted material on the underside. Great to use with Jig puzzle table.Everything fits well and easily holds a 1000 piece puzzle. Would purchase again.

Yes, this board is useful if you want to have it on a table that you use for other things. The quality is fine. The 1000 piece size can br held on the lap but it is a bit precarious unless you have exceptionally long thighs!! I nearly upset mine a couple of times. Good to use on a glass table where normally the light above reflects into the puzzler's eyes.
