Which piece count should I pick for a custom jigsaw puzzle?

99 pieces is our pocket-sized gift puzzle (ships in a tube) and solves in 20-30 minutes. 100 XL pieces uses larger tiles and is our most gift-friendly option for kids, seniors, and anyone who wants a fast, satisfying solve. 500 pieces is an evening project for one or two people. 1000 pieces is a weekend statement puzzle and produces the largest finished image.

What photo works best for a custom puzzle?

High-resolution photos with clear subjects print the sharpest. We recommend a 5:7 ratio and at least 4 MP for the 500 and 1000 piece versions; even the 99 and 100 XL versions look best with a well-lit, in-focus image. Screenshots, heavily compressed social-media photos, and images with small background faces tend to lose detail once cut.

Does the custom puzzle come with a box?

Yes, every piece count except the 99-piece pocket puzzle ships in a custom gift box printed with your photo on the lid. The 99-piece version ships in a tube to keep it small and mailer-friendly. Both ship ready to wrap.

How long does a custom puzzle take to produce and ship?

Production takes 2-5 business days (each puzzle is photo-printed, die-cut, inspected, and boxed). Standard shipping adds 3-8 business days; express (UPS) adds 1-3. Most orders arrive within two weeks of placement worldwide.

Can I return a custom photo jigsaw puzzle?

Because every puzzle is made from your personal photo, we can't accept returns on a change of mind. If the puzzle arrives damaged or has a production fault, message us at support@giftenova.com within 7 days of delivery and we'll remake or refund it.

What age is this puzzle recommended for?

Ages 13+. The 99, 500, and 1000-piece versions have small pieces that are a choking hazard for young children. For kids, order our 100 XL pieces option that is more suitable for kids with ages 7 to 12.
