Puzzle Table FAQs
We know you'll be happy with a puzzle table from Bits and Pieces. With a portable puzzle table, you can not only work on
jigsaw puzzles at home but take them on the go too! Below are some common questions asked about our jigsaw puzzle tables.
What Is a Jigsaw Puzzle Table?
A jigsaw puzzle table provides a stable, raised, and comfortable surface designed explicitly for puzzle building. Unlike a regular table, it reduces strain, offers better visibility, and often includes features like tilt angles, storage drawers, or folding legs. It’s an ideal option for anyone who wants
a dedicated puzzle setup at home.
What’s the Difference Between an Adjustable Puzzle Table and a Regular Puzzle Table?
An adjustable puzzle table is built for easy storage and portability, making it perfect for small spaces or multi-use rooms. Regular puzzle tables may offer more space or added features, but they aren't always designed to pack away quickly. If you need flexibility, a foldable puzzle table is the easiest choice for storing between puzzle sessions.
How Do I Choose the Right Size Puzzle Table for My Puzzles?
Choose a table based on the puzzle piece count you complete most often. For 1,000–1,500-piece puzzles, look for a wide tabletop with extra space around the edges for sorting. For smaller or mid-size puzzles, compact puzzle tables provide enough working room while staying easy to move or store. For more guidance,

Are Puzzle Tables Good for People with Limited Space?
Yes—especially portable and foldable puzzle tables. These designs let you set up a puzzle anywhere and then store the table in a closet, under the bed, or beside a couch when not in use. They are excellent for apartments, shared living rooms, and multipurpose workspaces.
What Features Should I Look for in a Puzzle Table?
Key features include tilt adjustments for comfort, non-slip or felt surfaces to prevent pieces from sliding, built-in sorting drawers, and lightweight frames for portability. If you plan to move your puzzle often, consider a foldable puzzle table with sturdy legs and secure latches.
Do Puzzle Tables Help Keep Puzzle Pieces Organized?
Absolutely. Many puzzle tables come with sorting trays, drawers, or raised edges that help prevent pieces from falling. These built-in organizers keep your workspace neat and reduce the chance of losing pieces.
Can I Use a Puzzle Table for Puzzles With 1,000 Pieces or More?
Many of our adjustable and foldable puzzle tables accommodate up to
1000-piece jigsaw puzzles. Always check the surface dimensions before purchasing to ensure the table fits your preferred puzzle size comfortably.
Are Puzzle Tables Easy to Store When Not in Use?
Most puzzle tables, especially folding and portable styles, are designed for quick and convenient storage. They fold flat for easy placement in closets, under beds, or behind furniture.
Is a Puzzle Table Worth It for Beginners?
Yes—puzzle tables make puzzling more comfortable and organized for users of all experience levels. Beginners benefit from the dedicated workspace, added visibility, and reduced strain, which make assembling puzzles more enjoyable.
