This was a gift for our nephew and he seems to enjoy it. It appears to be very well made.

A nice chess set overall. The only thing I didn’t like was the plastic part that holds all the pieces. It is weak and flimsy. After a few games it will probably break down. Other then that, I love the rest of it. Nice wooden pieces and board. Will hold up for quite a while. My husband loves it!

Beautiful set! I am pleased with the quality of the board as well as the pieces. I was expecting it to be just a bit larger, so that was my only complaint… But the workmanship exceeded my expectations! I received this product at a discount in exchange for my review.
