Amazing fit and finish, therapeutic, great exercise for my fingers, great conversation starter. I bought this because I had a dream of a black sphere that opened up into an energy bubble that brought me great joy. True story. I searched for black sphere puzzle and found this. Took me about an hour the first time. Now it takes me about five minutes. It actually feels like a work out for my fingers. So rewarding every time he goes back together, It truly does bring me great joy. I try to do it once a day almost like a meditation. I find it quite relaxing and heartily endorse this product!

The black version is the way to go, the brass ring really makes it pop on my desk.

The heft and weight of this puzzle is such a satisfying thing. It is simply and artfully displayed on my desk using the included brass-colored display stand (a simple ring shape). The black finish is visually stunning, and seems extremely durable. I've dropped the pieces (and heard them loudly clang against one another) several times while trying to solve the puzzle, and there is still no cosmetic damage as far as I can see.

I frequently hold the puzzle and roll it around in my hands while on conference calls or watching videos to keep my hands occupied. The puzzle aspect of it is quite nice, too. The parts are machined very precisely, so that sliding them against each other provides a very satisfying tactile sensation and sound. They're machined so precisely that, until you get the hang of the positioning, it's actually quite hard to put back together! Even with the included instructions, it took me about 15 minutes on my first attempt. Now I've quite mastered it, but it doesn't take away from how satisfying it is.

I think it'll also be a fun piece to leave on the table in the living room when guests are over.

Overall, very satisfied.
