I love my Chessup board! Being an older retired person with medical issues, I'm at home a lot by myself and the Chessup board makes my life so much better and tolerable. Keeps my mind off things, and keeps me thinking. And the board itself is a joy to use. It is now my new mistress!

I love the board and how it works to play against AI black on level 3 to get my brain functioning as a 73 year old retired man dedicated to THINKING due to challenge. My current game ( that I saved) has me down a knight, so things are not going so well at the moment. Saving the game allows me time to look at the board now and then and figure out my next best move without having the board powered on. Black moves in less than a second and for the opening I kinda move with that speed. But then it gets more challenging. I really like it cause it makes me feel alive.

We lost a few of our chess pieces & Bryght Labs was super helpful & helped us out in ordering the replacement pieces in an expedited manner for my 16 year old to take his board to Wednesday Chess Night (where he first took his board & made quite the impression, several players went online & purchased a board) Thank you for making it easy to replace any lost pieces!

My son turned 14, today. He LOVES this chess board like no other. He calls it the Elon Musk of boards, lol. It works beyond his expectations.

I am a retired teacher, living in a retirement home. I planned to use this chess set to teach some of the residents who either have always wanted to learn chess, or played years ago and wanted a refresher. This set is "sort of okay" for that purpose. First, the pieces are too light. You bump into one piece and three or four fall over; they need to be weighted. Second, the board works beautifully if you're playing but not if you want to do a demonstration: here's how the rook moves, here's how the bishop moves, etc. I'm using my own (regular) board for now, and when the folks are familiar enough with moving the pieces, and are ready to play, I'll bring out this one. I'm sure it'll be great then; it just doesn't work for teaching outside of the "play" format.

My son wanted the Chess Up Board to take to his Wednesday nights Chess Meets at a place called SlowPokes in Houston, TX (a really great guy started these meetings for all ages, its really fun to watch the adults & kids that gather to play chess). My son Beckett brought his board to the Chess Night & was a hit! All were fascinated by Chess Up (I know you made a few sales to this group afterwards). Last night he was looking for his Board to go to the Wednesday Chess at SlowPokes & discovered his Golden Retreiver had gotten his Knight! I googled how to get replacement pieces & it wasn't looking promising, however I contacted Support at Chess Up & they responded right away & our replacement Knight is on its way via Fed Ex to Houston! Thank you Veronica for all of your hard work & effort to get us back up & running to Chess Meet at SlowPokes! EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE HANDS DOWN!

I love the product. My kids learned to play chess in couple of days. They were amazed by the lights and AI assistence. I am an FM and I bought the product to play more online training rapid games. However, I do have one question, though... I can't seem to play any games on lichess. You can see on the attached screenshot. The app doesn't allow me to press the "Start Game" button. Can you help me with this?

We are enjoying Chess UP. After trying FIVE different sets, this is the one. I am a beginner playing with a very good chess player, and we can enjoy the game! Thank you. Very easy to use, as long as you read the directions, which are very good.

The ChessUp chess set is a great product, well taught, well made. Perfect for beginners and advanced players. Jeff, Veronica and the Support Team are just the best, and are Customer oriented, they know their products and are always there to help you out. I’m purchasing ChessUp 2, very eager to receive it next November. I strongly recommend the ChessUp products ;o)

I'm loving the ChessUp board so far. I'm learning the finer points of the game and this is a great teacher to get that accomplished. The board and pieces are high quality and feel good in your hands. I'm still figuring out all the different aspects of the board and how it interfaces with the application. There is a series of tutorials within the app that teaches everything from the fundamentals of how all the pieces move and endgame moves with different pieces all the way up to a master level. My only concern so far is that I'll become too dependent on the lights showing me the best moves available. Hopefully, I'll get past that at some point where I no longer need the lights to show me the best move vs. blunders. I'm so glad I bought this, this is a must have for anyone who wants to be a better chess player!

Very good! Wish that you didn't need the app to have all of the AI and assistance levels. Other than that it is an amazing board! Highly recommend!

Excellent chess computer at affordable price. Definitely, I recommended it to all sort of players from beginner to advanced players . I played for about three to foour hours chess online with my iPad, which was damaging to my eyesight . Now, I spent most of my time playing online with Chess up on Lichess and Chess.com. I would love to play with it on Chess King web site. Unfortunately, this is not available yet. I have many chess applications on my IPad to train myself and wish that I could link to them through Chess Up. That shouldn't it technically be very difficult to have an open internal link to the apps like Stockfish and similar applications or to any other chess application on the IPad, which would open up a whole new world. Still, I am grateful to the staff of Bryght Labs for their great efforts and wish you good luck with you great enterprise. Keep up the good work.

It is truly remarkable to engage in real-time chess matches with global opponents using a physical chessboard, all thanks to an app that interfaces with chess.com. This eliminates the need to constantly rely on a computer screen. Additionally, the ChessUp board incorporates advanced technology to offer various features. For instance, it highlights optimal moves based on your selected difficulty level, aiding in skill enhancement. The board's standalone capabilities, thanks to its built-in AI with varying difficulty settings, are highly convenient. Considering its quality, the ChessUp board offers excellent value for its price. In my view, it's an excellent choice for both novices and seasoned players seeking to elevate their gameplay and enjoy the experience.

I like what it promises. Yet, not soon after Chessup 2 comes out. Am I missing the upgrade?

I love my ChessUp board. I’m looking forward to enjoying it for years to come. I would really like to have an extra set of pieces just in case of damage or loss. I haven’t been able to find them for sale.

Hi Rick! We're so happy you love your ChessUp, we hope you get a ton of use out of it! If you reach out to info@bryghtlabs.com Veronica can help you with spare chess pieces if you lose or damage a piece. Look forward to hearing from you!

While it's been a fair experience having played around five times already, unfortunately, in about three of those games, we encountered issues with the board glitching and the AI feature malfunctioning. This dampened the overall experience a bit. However, the remaining two games were pleasant and enjoyable, successfully delivering fun gameplay. Yet, I do feel that the cost is slightly on the higher side.
