A&A 15" Magnetic Wooden Chess & Checkers Set, Handmade 3" King Height Unique Chess Pieces with 2 Extra Queen, Portable Travel Chess Game Set for Adults Kids

I never write reviews but I was compelled to with this item. I had got the £20 GGIE chessboard on Amazon before this, which was a massive let down in almost every way. So I did loads of research to find a better board at a reasonable price and found this, and honestly, it exceeded my expectations. Both the chessboard and pieces are absolutely beautiful. I got the weighted pieces (I find magnetic ones feel a bit cheap and childish.) They weighed more than I was expecting, and provide that satisfying "thud" when you place them on the board. The felt is thick too, not a piece of paper like on most pieces this price. This comes with the newer style pieces, which look when more elegant than the ones in older review photos on here. The gap in the board is honestly almost invisible, and more importantly, I can smoothly glide pieces over it. It came with notation stickers which I was hoping for, but now I'm undecided whether to use them as the board looks so beautiful as it is. I'd like to thank A&A for creating a perfect product at such an amazing price. And for you, the reader, your search for the best folding board ends here.

This is a high quality chess set to please players of all levels. It arrived in a sturdy carboard box, not a single mark or dent. Inside this box was a 2nd box and within this a cardboard slleve. Inside this was the Chess set in the display box customers see on shop shelf. Within this the chess set was wrapped in a felt wrapper. I knew just from the way it was packaged it was going to be a quality chess set. Onmce I removed the chess set from the sleeve i was met with a beautiful smooth set. Maple and Walnut inlay! Each playing piece was well carved. Ea.sy to distinguis each piece. 2 Queens so an extra Queen of each colour. My first thought was this must be the wrong item and I have been sent a chess set worth 3 times than the one I bought. Quite honestly I do nkot know how they can make it at such a low price. Attention to detail is first class. The set comes with each piece having its own moulded home inside the box and comes with a checquers set. I am blown away by the quality. MY Wife and I are keen to start playing chess again. I can fin no negatives, if you want a Chess set as a beginner or an experienced player this is a great choice. Worth every penny.

Colour of some pieces is not exactly same but that is expected as it depends on wood colour. I am little bit afraid of longevity of bottom of the pieces but it should be repairable if it will eventually happen. Not heavy, not too big, not too small. I am satisfied. The only problem I found is that on some surfaces as kitchen table the chess board is way too easy to slide due to wooden bottom of the chess board. If that would improve and some extra bottoms for chess pieces would be added for pieces longevity it would be probably one of the best chess sets for the money on amazon.

Really well made and great quality, it comes with a soft cover and handbook highly recommend.

We’re spending a lot of time with my 11 years old boy playing this beautiful chess set together.Hea crying a lot but hes learning quickly! 😂😂

Really great set for the price. Looks amazing when you play it, weighted pieces have a very nice feel. Somehow this set really makes me want to play more often. There are some inperfections if you look closely on pieces and of course there are better sets, but for this price nothing can beat this set imo.

The set its amazing, quality it's great but arrived damage inside. I can't return it as it was a birthday present and the kid doesn't want to give it back and then wait another couple of days. Just a shame I can't speak directly with the seller

Good buy

Beau produit, sobre. Les pièces totalement officielles permettent de ne pas être dépaysé et se concentrer sur le jeu. La finition de l'échiquier, la précision des charnières sont excellents. Perso, je cherchais, à pouvoir ranger les pièces dans des emplacements pour éviter qu'elles ne s'entrechoquent en déplacement. Je voulais aussi les double dames. Donc comblé. Petit raffinement que je cherchais aussi : la couleur des pièces repose sur les essences de bois utilisées et non des vernis ou peintures. Le lestage et la feutrine sont bien finis aussi. Seul petit truc que je ne trouve pas pratique, les "pions de dames" qu'il faut enlever à chaque fois qu'on ouvre l'échiquier. Ce serait pas mal, d'avoir une astuce qui permette de les bloquer quand on retourne l'échiquier. Mais bon, détail mineur et après tout je pourrais les ranger ailleurs. Bref très agréable. 5 étoiles.

Produto de excelente qualidade!

特に不良なところもなく無事に届きました。

Exceeded my expectations

Perfect Chess and Checkers board! Really happy with purchase.
