   This set is simply stunning!!! The board is very nice and solid. Not a wimpy, flimsy set at all. The star of this set is easily the pieces, though! When I saw “Pieces NOT made of Wood”, I was a little concerned, but for less that 100 bucks, I figured it would be a nice set to take along to friends houses, while my “nice” sets stay at home… The pieces are AMAZING!! They are heavily weighted, they feel good in the hand, and they LOOK LIKE WOOD. I had to go back to the description, to enlarge the picture of the pieces. The simulated wood grain is phenomenal!!! You will not be disappointed with this set, at all. I have ordered the “Extra Queens” Extra Queens Only (for use with Abigail Chess Inlaid Wood Folding Board Game with Pieces – 21 Inch Set) for this set. There is space in the storage bin for them. My only suggestion is that the manufacturer include them, and charge 10 bucks more for the set. It would definitely be worth it. I am very pleased.

   Update: I said there is room in the case for the extra queens… There is not, but get them anyway. A set this nice should not have you using quarters on it, in the even of pawn-promotion. I will likely grab a Crown Royal bag to carry my pieces in, anyway, so it doesn’t matter to me.

   This is quite a lovely chess set and quite a nice size to have at home. I did my best to show the size of the pieces in the pictures for the benefit of others to reference. Please remember that this is not wood, but a High-grade polymer. This set is indeed worth it’s price tag, giving the look and feel of a High end chess set.

   I have really enjoyed​ this chess set. I like the color, style and weight of the peices. The board isn’t bad at all either. My only issue with it is one of the rooks has a split near the bottom of it which causes the weight inside to rattle a bit. This was an issue out of the box. The board had no damage nor did any of the other peices when it arrived, it may just be an out of factory defect on this one piece.

   In a word: Excellent! The outer box arrived looking a little roughed-up, but the board showed no signs of damage. The pieces have a high gloss finish, and the seam (an inevitable part the molding process) for the pieces is not visible or felt. The pieces are also very nice and feel good in the hand; very ‘weighty.’ The folding board is also a quality piece, and the combination of pieces and board are a great match. One of my pet peeves associated with folding boards is the seam that inevitably distinguishes a folding board from a non-folding one. However, this board’s seam is almost not discernible when the board is laid flat for game play. The pieces are nicely secured when stowed inside the folded board. If you’ve never owned a folding board before, I would suggest you store the set in its original box or buy some type of bag in order to prevent scratches and scuffs that are always a risk in a stored environment. But if you’re looking at this set as a ‘beater’ (to use and throw-away after a few years) set, the folding board will more than meet your storage needs. This is a great set for the price and I really don’t think you could beat it for ‘bang for your buck. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this set to anyone.

   I like the visual of the pieces, quality of the pieces, the weight of the pieces and the visual of the board. My only offer of caution would be that the hardware on the chessboard may be in contact with your table so you want to protect against that
