This was a neat idea so I thought I'd try it. I love rubix cubes and other brain teaser puzzles. This was way too easy I realized once I got it. Since all the circle pieces stay where they are (unlike a rubix cube or other similar), you only have to flip it to one side or the other. So the puzzle is super simple to solve. It's kinda fun I guess and the pictures are cute, but I feel like once you solve it, you'll be bored with it. Sorry. Just my honest opinion. The pictures are funny though and could be nice to play with more by a younger child. It can also be frustrating to keep the circles in place while spinning the other layers to the right position. Not bad, just wouldn't recommend for people older than like 7 years old.

It was a very fun spin and flip puzzle to solve. It was a lot easier looking at the picture on the package to see which part of the flip and spin puzzle had to be on to complete it. I would recommend this product to others to try to solve it and just occupies your mind. It is difficult to solve if you don't have the pictures to reference from. It is great for its price. You will hours of fun trying to solve these, and even trying to mix them all up to try to have someone else or even yourself to solve.

This TCG Toys Spin Flip Puzzle is a really neat little toy, and both the adults and kids in our house have gotten a kick out of playing with it. It isn't super complicated, so kids as young as 7 or 8 should have no trouble turning and flipping the pieces to make the images appear. Kids younger than that may have a difficult time being gentle enough with this toy. The pieces are study enough, but not exactly robust.This toy is definitely suitable for a small gift or stocking stuffer, but beware the package is probably too large for a stocking.

The Spin Flip Puzzle can be frustrating, which might make it a bad idea for younger kids or those who already frustrate easily. It's not that it's hard to solve (it took my 10-year-old less than five minutes to solve the dog side), but it’s difficult to line up properly as it flips in ways you don't want unless you hold it exactly right. That does add to the challenge, however, which will make it a good puzzle for those who like that sort of thing.Even for those who don't enjoy The Spin Flip works well as a fun fidget. It makes a light clacking noise that's quite satisfying, and the movements are smooth and responsive when flipping the layers over and over.The pictures are nicely done, bright, and fun, and the quality of the toy seems good, though this is definitely not a toy I’d recommend for younger or rough-playing kids. My kid managed to pop out some of the rings almost immediately after picking it up the first time. Fortunately, they popped back together quickly and easily.The only thing I dislike about this puzzle (the frustration-level lands neutral for me) is that it doesn't offer any type of reference posters or cards to be stored with the toy, and the box is too large to use permanently for those of us who don't have a lot of space.Despite my complaints, it's worth getting for its uniqueness and high level of fun.

This puzzle comes with a very attractive package that would make a nice eye-catching gift for those special puzzlers or fidgeter in your life. The first time I pulled it out of the package, the outside ring popped free but I was able to get it back into place pretty quickly. There is some fun to be had by fidgeting with the toy but it doesn't really hit that normal fidgeting itch for me.The puzzle aspect of the toy isn't much of a puzzle but more of a persistence item. There is a total of two orientations for each part and then you'll need to spin it into place. Once you find the correct side and twist it over then that's it. Just keep repeating until you get all of them in place. The hardest part of the puzzle is holding all the rings from rotating as you rotate the next one.The graphics are very bright and very fun. My teenage daughter loved the art so much that I gave it to her and in quickly vanished into her sphere of friends.

My kids both enjoyed this spin puzzle. They love puzzles and love fidget toys and this was a perfect mix of both. It's easy enough for an elementary child to do on their own, but not so easy that it doesn't take a little effort. It's a two in one puzzle, which also makes it more fun. We also discovered that it can come apart and pop right back into place so it should last for a long time. So whether it is used as a puzzle, fidget toy, or pretend atom, it's been a hit with the kids.

The puzzle is easy enough to solve. The movement of the pieces are unique but very fascinating. My kids keep picking it up - even though they have solved both sides several times.I will say that the way the pieces are attached to each other is a bit weak. The puzzle has fallen apart several times. It's easy enough to put back together, but I'm dreading the day that the puzzle falls apart for good.

This is a cool twist--a puzzle and fidget toy in one! It was good for all 4 of my kids (8, 12, 14, and 16) and adults as well. It was a bit frustrating to work, but once you get the hang of it, it's easier. My only complaint is that it pops apart fairly frequently.
