Bepuzzled Loop Hanayama Cast Metal Brain Teaser Puzzle (Level 1), Teen

This is one of two Hanayama puzzles I bought recently. Both of them are VERY sturdy polished metal construction. They operate very smoothly, look classy, and can easily be solved in seconds "behind the back" once you know the trick. But they both require you to "know the trick" to solving them, and the solution is counter-intuative, so they'll keep guests busy trying to figure them out, and very satisfied with themselves after they work it out. They're the perfect puzzles to keep on the coffee table for guests to play with, with no change of even a rough strong kid breaking them. Hanayama makes quite a few other puzzles, but these looked like the ones that were the "most challenging but quickly solvable" of the bunch. You can't get any simpler than a two-piece puzzle, and these pull it off well.

Love this thing but one of the magnets fell out after two months. And the metal finish fades and turns yellowish.

Y easyCool puzzle. Good conversation piece. One draw back pretty ease to figure out. But friend enjoy the fun in it.

This is an extremely well made, beautifully done puzzle. Congratulations. Perfectly done from top to bottom. You won't be disappointed. Design, price, material, packaging. All first class. Makes a great keepsake. I was so impressed, I bought several and gave them as gifts. So many are so cute and challenging I had to buy them for myself too. I have a collection now and will repeat this review for all of them. They are just fabulous for busy hands and curious minds. Put them on your desk and coffee table. People can't help but pick them up. They look like they'll last for ever. Again, you will not be disappointed with this product. My bet, you will end up buying more than one ! ! ! !

I like it. Its fun to fidget with even after solving. Its also beautiful in its simplicity of form and function. One review has said it comes pre-solved. That's actually impossible seeing that for it to be considered a complete solve it has to be taken apart and put back together. My puzzle even came put together wrong, so on top of not even being half-solved, it didn't give any hints whatsoever. And giving one star for a product being to easy while clearly being rated a level 1 is beyond idiotic. It doesn't get any easier than a level one. Whoever wrote that review has something wrong with being able to read and comprehend.
