“quality not great. Board doesnt line up when opened. Not worth the money paid. Looks much better in the online pictures than in reality.”

“Excellent customer service and classy packaging. Attractive and well made overall, though the pieces are a little basic. The knight, my favourite piece , is crudely sculpted and blocky looking so this was a disappointment. Perhaps a different way of storing the pieces would be an improvement, as attaching each one to an elastic hoop on the back of the board is a faff? This set is great for beginners and good value for money.”
