- AMEROUS Magnetic Wooden Chess Set, 15 Inches Handmade Wooden Folding Travel Chess Board Game Sets with Chessmen Storage Slots for Kids and Adults, 2 Bonus Extra Queens, Gift Box Packed

This chess set is a basic set for casual players, the pieces are wood, carved well enough to tell what they are, and aren’t weighted at all. The pieces to have magnets in the base to keep them in place on the board. The set includes extra queen pieces. The board folds in half and doubles as a storage box with foam inserts that hold the pieces. The quality of the board is also decent enough, but definitely not what I would consider premium. It has a wood veneer adhered to a particle board substrate and the seam is exposed along the edges. The fit and finish are acceptable, but nothing premium. There are no letters or numbers on the board, so that may be a deal-breaker for serious students of the game. The maker included a velvet cloth pouch for the board, which is nice to protecting the set in storage. There is also a very basic rule book. Overall, I’m content with the set, but it’s not quite as nice as I expected for the price. It should do fine for playing with my kiddos around the house and last for many years as long as we don’t abuse it.

Great value on this classic chess set with magnetic wooden pieces and board. I’ve had a few and found myself without a good one after moving. Mine came with a nice clothe bag with drawstring to protect it when not in use. The foam insert hugs all the pieces but one or two really well. Decently portable with folding.

THIS IS A MUST HAVE FOR CHESS FANATICS ON THE GO! it's sturdy, well made, high quality pieces. There is cushion for storage inside for safe keeping. It comes with a beautiful pouch along with a guide on how to play. Thank you for my new favorite chessboard Amerous! WE LOVE IT!!! ✨️💛🙏👑🌅

We wanted a travel chess at for my daughter. She loves to play with her dad but wanted something compact that we could carry around with us. The case is beautiful, has a velvet spot for each chess piece. The magnetic board is super convenient and makes it a lot easier to keep all the pieces. If they have to stop in the middle of a game we don’t have to worry about the pieces moving around. It’s perfect for kids who might not be able to keep things together.

Really great set. Comes in a nice car-board box. Would have been perfect except for a label stuck on the box which when removed leaves a sticky glue place on the box.

Great product for the money.

Love it! We really like that this chess set is magnetic so that our chess pieces do not move when proceeding with the game the next day! I really think it’s an absolutely excellent set and well crafted. Because someone mentioned the closing-opening tabs as making potential surface scratches, I bought a piece of thick platform in black at the Dollar Store, cut it to generous size and placed underneath the chess game to protect the ceramic countertop/wood. Now the entire chess set is easily transported, too. We think this chess set is truly a great find with excellent attributes.

Nice chess set at a good price. Big plus for the simple cleaning and storage

Well-made chess set. Great for daily use and very stylish. It's not perfect, but it's very good for the price.

We were happy with it. Ordered it for our family with 3 boys to play. The kids loved the size of the chess pieces as well as the board. They LOVED the fact that they have another Queen piece =) Quality wise, good for the price we pay. Not disappointed.

Birthday gift to my 37 year old daughter. I quote her remarks: "The chess set is amazing, great craftsmanship, simple, but stylish. The box it in came in was very nice. Best of all, the pieces still smell like varnish!

Its an ok chess board set but at that price range I would expect better quality control, the set I received had a lot of minor defects: - The stain color for black pieces varies quite a bit; the worst offender is a knight so dark it doesn't even look like it's from the same set - This being a magnetic set, magnets are inserted at the base of each piece, a few pawns have it popping out a little which make the pawns look like little crooked Pisa towers. - visible scuff marks on certain pieces - to the touch some pieces' stem are slightly oval rather than being round I would say 15 inches is a bit big for a travel size. Avoid if you're looking for something compact.

Beautiful set.
