Review on Magnetic Pocket ♟️ Chess Set by WE Games by Mike Pearson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

making it easy to lose a piece against WE Games

I thought I had lost my original USCF green chess book and bought this WE Games Ultimate to replace it. I found the USCF Chessbook so I'll use that link in this review. Preferred: Ultimate Chess Book by WE Games. This disk is of great importance. The USCF is just a plastic section that makes it easy to lose a character in a game with WE Games. The Ultimate Chess Book of the WE game is slightly thicker due to this storage plate, but it can still be carried around. WE Games has one downside: the top plate doesn't stay closed by magnets, unlike the green USCF chess book. Hang it upside down and you'll see that the top panel stays open. Reason: The magnets in the parts keep the book closed. Because the USCF doesn't have a storage platter, it's thinner, so the magnets attract the top platter. On the other hand, the WE Games Ultimate Chess Book Storage Plate makes it too thick to pull on the top plate to stay closed. A design solution could be to incorporate several powerful magnets into the top plate.

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • fragile
