This colorful modern variation features just six interlocking pieces but takes 69 different moves to take it all apart. A step-by- step how-to booklet will jump-start the most perplexed AND help you put the puzzle back together if, rather, once it has been solved!

My stars refer to the fun of the puzzle, not the difficulty. For this is certainly one of the hardest puzzles I have seen. One thing not usually mentioned is that it is easier to take apart using moves that rotate pieces. However, good luck remembering the reassembly using these "cheating" moves! The solution book that comes with the puzzle is essential and very well done. Also usually not mentioned is that fact that it can be reassembled in fewer (orthogonal) moves into a different configuration which appears, at first glance to be identical to the original burr (but is not). Devious puzzle!
