“Superbly packaged but...The tray, once unfolded, is a little wobbly.The wood of the tray has significant defects and very average finishes.The pieces are quite poorly finished. I dont recommend.”
“Pretty poor quality. The pieces are turnedlathed irregularly and are more eggshaped than round. Also quite light, almost falling over if you breathe heavily. Even the felt adhesive pads on the underside of the pieces are carelessly applied and cause some of them to tip slightly by up to 3 inches. The king falls into checkmate on its own. The chessboard itself is fine. You can use it for a round of chess, but then quickly pack it away again before someone sees it and asks about the price...”
“First we received a chess set that was missing three pawns and had one bishop too many. Monday product? In any case, the game was unusable, so we had to send it back. Thats why we lose the first point, because that really shouldnt happen. The rest of the review relates to the replacement delivery. This was complete and was unusually well packaged, especially considering the low price around 11 euros. Very classy gift packaging that suggests classy quality. Unfortunately, the workmanship of the game is in no way comparable to that of the packaging. Some of the pieces are made rather carelessly, especially with the rooks and knights, where you can see that the work was done hectically and inaccurately. Some of the notches on the rooks are completely in the wrong place, see detailed photo, as are the knights eyes. For 11 euros and acceptable for my 6yearold son, who is a chess beginner, we kept the replacement. Unfortunately, its not suitable as a gift. Hence the second point deduction.”
