Customer Reviews

fixed issueOk 5Happy with this purchasePerfect beginner set for my boy to learn chess! Love that it folds up an the pieces can be inside. 5A Winner in Its Own Small WayFirst, the Good: As an inexpensive set it is quite good. The body of the box is real wood, a hardwood, and well crafted. The playing surface is apparently Masonite. A photo-reproduced veneer of a synthetic material (vinyl?) is applied to depict the squares. There is no alpha-numeric notation in the narrow margins, which I like because I play for pleasure and don't want the distraction of chess notation right under my nose. The interior is lined with a soft synthetic fabric in dark brown, and the hinges are covered by the fabric - a nice touch. Small magnets set in the interior border are sufficient to keep the board closed during storage or travel. The edges of the set are shaped to resemble a book, so it stores well and looks good on a bookshelf. The pieces are of better quality than I expected. They are of real wood, apparently lathe turned, in traditional configuration. As with every inexpensive set I've seen, the knight is a bit clunky, but recognizable.Now the Not-So-Good: The bases of the pieces are of small diameter. The taller pieces - King, Queen, Bishop - topple easily. Bump the table and the game is over. I painted metal washers and glued them to the bases to add weight and stability. The smaller pieces are the diameter of a U.S. penny, and the larger pieces are the diameter of a 5-cent coin. You could use coins instead of washers and have a set of stable pieces for only 96-cents. (16 pennies, 16 nickels.)At home I use the tournament sized pieces -- weighted pieces, 4.25" King, 2" bases, 18-inch board -- so am spoiled by the look and play of the larger set, but this little item is ideal for its portability, and the price is right for a small traveling set. 4not a playable board -but nice wood chess men !The chess board squares are sopose to be light and dark alternating squares -but on this example their are very close in color and has a very poor board quality look-in other words -hard to distinguish light from dark . The chess pieces themselves look very nicefor the fact its a small travel size -thou its price is decent -quality is so soI would not recommend , returning mine for refund ! 2Good chess set to take on the moveSturdy and good looking. My son was delighted with it. 5Good buy. A little heavier maybe.Very good chess board. Pieces look really good for the price. Convenient that you can store the pieces right inside the board that folds in to a box. My only gripe is I wish the pieces were a little bottom heavy. They are so light that you have to be careful not to even touch any other piece when moving a piece or they topple over and sometimes knock over other pieces (especially when playing with children). 4Great valueI'm no master chess player, so this basic set is perfect. The board/book feels high quality and well constructed and the pieces are decent (a little bit heavier would be better). I sewed my own insert that turned the inside of the board/case into a backgammon set. I purchased a set of wooden checkers (to play backgammon and checkers) and now, for less than $30 (including the $20 for the chess set) we have 3 games in 1. The case holds the checkers and chess pieces and I also keep a deck of cards, a pen and some paper in there. The chess set is great, but the potential for a great game set is there if you have a little time and patience. 5Disappointed in boardI bought this for my grandson's visit and was impressed with the quality of the chessmen, but the board is "pictures of wood" not real wood. I like the magnetic clasp, the wooden edge,and the book-like look of the board when closed, but was disappointed in the vinyl surface of the board. 2Nice set to start out withI got this for my 6yo who just started learning how to play chess. It's a nice set to start out with. The magnet keeping the board closed is decent. My only complaint is that the pieces are really light and easy to knock over. 4Four StarsI just wish there was something to keep the pieces in. They are loose inside the board 4
