Top Ten New-to-Me Puzzle Brands from 2025

I tried a lot of new-to-me puzzle brands in 2025, some of which were pricier brands that I had been eyeing for a while. A few I was able to get through borrowing or on sale, but some I went ahead and splurged on.

Here are my top ten brands that were new to me in 2025:

New York Puzzle Company – I have admired this US company’s images for a while and finally got one to try for myself. It was called Stay Cozy, and I loved the vibe of the image. The puzzle is good quality but it was definitely hard due to the random cut pieces.

PieceRelax – These Taiwanese puzzles are made from plastic pieces, which are a fun, different experience. They make a very satisfying click, although they do require more pressure the farther into the puzzle that you get. I did two of theirs this year: Boho Interior and Whimsy Garden House.

Pintoo – These puzzles also have plastic pieces. Pintoo is actually the parent company of PieceRelax, and the puzzle I did from them was called The Tree of Hope. It is a beautiful four season puzzle.

Pieces & Peace – This is a French brand that I splurged on and have since fallen in love with. I have done two of their puzzles this year and have another two on my shelf to do. The images are just lovely and the quality is fantastic. The puzzles I have done are London Cafe and Fall Festival.

Pippi Post – This family-owned brand from Utah features the artwork of its founder, Alexa Zurcher. The images are charming, and the pieces are paperboard that has an almost plastic feel that I really enjoy. I have done three of their puzzles now: Pride & Prejudice Map, Little House on the Prairie Map, and Seasons.

Reverie – This is an Australian brand that I have wanted to try for a while. They are expensive, but I was able to pick one up for not too much a few months ago with a coupon and a free shipping offer. All of their puzzles have something to do with books, which makes them even more special. The one I got was The Language of Flowers, and I loved it.

Tania Wicks – Tania is an Australian photographer who started a puzzle brand a couple of years ago. I have been interested in this brand for quite a while, and finally had the opportunity to do one of the puzzles this year through my Completing the Puzzle subscription. It was a beautiful image called Envelopes. Unfortunately, she has closed her puzzle company now.

Trevell – This is a French brand, and I was able to get one regular puzzle and two mini puzzles to try this year. The mini puzzles were Cozy Kitchen and Spring Barn, and the larger puzzle was Parenthese Enchantee. I had a wonderful experience with all of them.

Villager – This is a Canadian woman-owned brand that features artwork from Canadian women artists. The puzzles are beautiful and the quality is very good. I purchased two puzzles from them this year (Rockies Explorer and Dream Library), and I got two more as traveling puzzles (Cottage Country and Lupines Meadow).

Wentworth Wooden Puzzles – I got the chance to do my first ever wooden puzzle as part of a traveling puzzle from a Facebook group. This is a UK brand. It was called Sunset Mountains, and it was gorgeous. I absolutely loved it and hope I will get to do more wooden puzzles in the future.

  1. You have given me lots to think about. I didn’t realize that there were so many really serious “puzzlers” around. I’ve always just grabbed one from the shelf in a big box store, or ordered one online.

    1. I follow puzzlers on Instagram and some on YouTube, and there are definitely a lot of them. A lot of them are also into speed puzzling, which I don’t do but enjoy watching. I have several friends who like puzzles but only do them occasionally, which is great too. I am just the type of person that gets really deep into something when I like it.

  2. So nice to hear your review of these puzzles. Some I have not tried before. I’m always torn with The New York Puzzle Co, not just the random pieces, but they are so loose fitting. I do enjoy them. The other ones, I have not tried, but have wanted too. So, nice to hear you enjoyed all of them. Happy Puzzling.
