First, I was relieved that the product was well-designed and that it functioned correctly upon opening the package since the item was purchased at the beginning of October as a gift to be given to one of my daughters for Christmas. With that being said it has since met all expectations and worked flawlessly for several games per day over the past two weeks. Due to the high-quality construction, we expect to receive many years of trouble-free enjoyment!

I bought this for my 8 year old for Christmas. He loves it, and is constantly playing against the AI. The pieces and the board have high build quality.

I have charged the board and played a few games. Everything seems to work properly. I am now just waiting for the accessories that I ordered.

I was having a hard time affording a board, so I looked for a used board on reddit. Chessup support found me and offered me an opened box board at a discount, out of nowhere. The support has been so friendly, and incredibly professional. I am down right amazed as the level of service the chessup company has shown.

Super well executed. I've been playing chess since I was a child, but I've found it hard to teach others because of the complexity. ChessUp accelerates a huge hurdle to learning Chess, which is the movement of each individual type of piece. Super clever and well executed

A decent quality board, gets out of sync easily and the app doesn't work very well. Considering the app drives the experience it really is limited to how well it works. Has potential but until they improve the app and online experience it is just an expensive board that you can play the computer with

My sons love Chessup! I am also able to teach them the game a lot easier because of the lights on the board showing the available moves.

Chessup. So far so good, I love that it's getting my wife and kids interested. The handicap option evens the playing field. It's somewhat glitchy at times, but has never prevented a game from finishing. That's the only reason I gave it 4 stars. It isn't flawless, but technology rarely is. Would highly recommend for a beginner or someone wanting to introduce others to the game. I wish I had this to learn on.

I’d love to give 5 stars but after o my several months of ownership and a few dozen games, the mere Re broken spaces that don’t turn light off when correct piece is placed or it will flicker on off under the piece while other potential moves not involving that piece are lit up. Very disappointing. I hope you will address this. I did the troubleshooting steps and cali rated the board after clearing etc.

It works as advertised. I haven't experienced anything close to resembling a bug in their chess system. That's what it is. A systematic approach to improving your chess game. This board hasn't left my coffee table since I received it two weeks ago.

I bought the ChessUp board, bags, and phone holder. Everything has been pretty great so far. The kids and I have played nearly 300 games on the board so far. We have played the ai up to lvl 16, played each other, played online games on chess.com, and even had the ai play itself. There have been a few bugs/issues along the way but nothing major. Most of them have gone away as we have figured things out. I posted a bug regarding chess.com play as black and it was patched pretty quickly. It’s been a great motivator and made chess feel more accessible for the kids. I will say that I have found the assist mode to be hit or miss with suggested move quality. But there are settings I can tinker with to see if it helps. Overall, really happy I got it despite the additional cost as compared to chessnut or others like it.

So far the games I have played with the AI have been enjoyable and the description of the move choice very informative and a great teaching tool.

My wife got me the board as a birthday present and I really love the ability to play an AI on a physical board as well as many of the existing assisting features but I feel like there could be so much more added to it and hope to see it advance in the future! A few ideas from just having it for a week - 1. The number one thing I want from this board is to improve my chess game and one way I was hoping to do that was through teaching me the best ways to learn chess openings. I know the most common openings are stored in the board but I think it would be such a huge perk if I could select from a dropdown or input which opening I want to execute in the app and then have the board guide me through the best ways to get those setups done and what to do when those openings are challenged in unexpected ways. 2. I'd love to just have a "Custom Board" selection in the app where I can set up the pieces how I want and then export it to the board in one click. Right now, the FEN string works but for someone who has never used that before, it's super painful to figure out every time. There are other small tweaks I'd want to see but those two are the biggest things I feel like would benefit the user right now and don't think it would be crazy hard to implement with the app. Overall though, the board is great and I'm looking forward to it really becoming a one-stop shop for players trying to improve in the future!

ChessUp is great! My 7-year-old nephew loves learning to play and it allows us to have a good game together with the different assistance levels. My only wish is that it had a mode where I could turn off available moves on my end while keeping the assistance on his. But that is a minor thing. Overall, this is an amazing board that will get lots of use!

i like it but there is a glitch on the app. sometimes when i choose i piece to move i can make an illegal move. Also integrating chessable's move trainer into it to train openings would be useful. overall a quality product
