“I ordered this as a Christmas gift for my girlfriend and after opening it Christmas day, and playing a couple of games I noticed what looked like glue marks and imperfections on the board. I was a bit unhappy, while its not the most expensive chess set it its made by a really good manufacturer who have a long history with chess sets. Their customer service has been second to none and Ive now got a replacement on the way.Other than that, the chess set is amazing and I like the fact that the pieces are competition pieces.”

“Much loved present. Good quality box and pieces. Could be improved by adding some sort of lock or magnet to stop box from opening easily”

“Figures feel extremely cheap and light. The look isnt that bad, but as soon as you hold it in your hand you immediately realize their low extremely quality. Board is also very light. Regret of buying, would rather opt for a chinese metallic competitor.”
