A beautiful board that we use frequently. All the pieces fit inside nicely. They aren’t heavy pieces but they move around the board easily without knocking over.

A high quality board and pieces for the price, it’s brought lots of joy to our office where lots of us play chess. We were playing on computers but a good old board is much more sociable. I’d recommend it as a gift.

I just wanted a small set to travel with on a short trip and found this to be excellent. The board quality is excellent and unusually for a set of this size there is internal protection and individual restraints for the pieces whilst the board is folded and in transit. On a point of personal preference only I found the white pieces a little too white, and will probably stain them to obtain an off-white or darkish colour, but other than that a great product from a traditional chess brand name, and at an excellent price. Highly recommended.

The chess board is of a good quality. You have to take all the pieces out to unfold the board.would of given it 5 stars if the pieces were weighted as they are a bit light
