Hartmaze, 199 pieces. Another new design, with some challenge as the colors subtly change through the puzzle. 3/5
About my ratings
Perhaps because of my day job, I'm a tough rater. Everything 3/5 and above I consider worth the time and money. If I purchase on Etsy or a similar platform and the puzzle is as expected, I will give a top rating on the platform because of how seller ratings work, but here "as expected" is probably a 3/5 in most cases.

Beautiful Indian Feather Headdress
Hartmaze, 178 pieces. One of two new Hartmaze releases, with their standard random/jagged piece style, a few pieces that arrived still stuck together, and a complex image. Good value for money. 3/5

Enchanted Dusk Sea Sight
Hartmaze, 199 pieces. Hartmaze has added another puzzle--they've upped the prices a bit but it's still a bargain even compared to the newer laser cut sellers who've jumped into the market. 3/5

Chequers
Hartmaze, 167 pieces. Another interesting, reasonably priced puzzle with lots of color variation and randomly cut pieces with an irregular edge. 3/5

Castle in Dream
Hartmaze, 73 pieces. So reasonably priced I bought it despite the small size; Hartmaze seems to have raised its prices on Amazon so that it's only cheaper than comparable makers, not a lot cheaper than comparable makers, but I'm ok with that. 3/5 would make a nice host/hostess gift or gift for a child.

Flowers Fury Blossom in Beauty and Fascination
Hartmaze, 246 pieces. They've upped the price a bit but this is still a very good deal for a laser-cut puzzle. Small pieces with almost random shapes and an irregular edge, as well as a bunch of wild patterns, make for a good challenge. 3/5

Hundred birds pay homage to phoenix
Hartmaze, 253 pieces. Another gem from Hartmaze: surprisingly challenging for its size. Tiny pieces, if you have trouble with that. 3/5

Universe Planets Space
Hartmaze, 177 pieces. Conventionally shaped this time; the easiest of the Hartmaze puzzles I did, still with random internal piece shapes. Wish there were more! 3/5

Color Owl
Hartmaze, 209 pieces. I wish Hartmaze made more puzzles! They're so comparatively cheap and yet well-done. But they seem to have produced a few puzzles then disappeared. 3/5

Decorative Elephant
Hartmaze, 171 pieces. It's not often I find a new laser cutter--Chinese, no less. The pieces have no particular theme or style, but they're not strip cut and the shape is irregular while the colors vary a lot, making for a puzzle that is a reasonable challenge despite the small size. The price can't be beat, so find it on Amazon if you're in need of a small puzzle. 3/5
