A well-crafted chessboard and pieces, the weight of the pieces is substantial and they have a solid feel as well. They also are clearly and easily identifiable pieces unlike the stone-carved Mexican sets I’ve seen. There are fancier, more elaborate, chess sets on the market but this is a classic version that makes a great gift for chess enthusiasts
Louis Jackson –
Beautifully made. The chess pieces had a nice weight.

This is a good, solid chess set. I bought it as a gift for my sons who have recently picked up an interest in playing chess. They are now using this set at least several times a week.
The wooden pieces look very nice considering the price.
The Outside of the board/case looks very good.

Our Son loves the chess set. He said it was a really good size, easy to move the pieces and looks great!

The materials and craftsmanship are very fine, particularly considering the price. The labeling of the chess ranks and files (rows and columns) are very helpful in teaching chess notations. The pawns and chessmen all store nicely in the box, which when opened becomes a very well-sized board. Good size pieces for young hands also. The set when closed up is also a reasonable size for storage.

Very good set for the price.
