My family LOVES this item. We have normal wooden chessboard, not suitable for travel, which looks good at home, but definitely not suitable for travel because it is big and heavy. However, this tiny thing is amazing and we can take it anywhere! The magnets are very strong and the pieces won't slide off the board when you pick them up (or snatch them out of your opponent's hands). The images on the chess pieces are easy to distinguish and even give you a few extra empty pieces in case you lose the others. Pretty awesome. Seriously, you can't go wrong with this set. Someone commented that they didn't like the way it closes because the magnet on one end isn't strong enough to stay closed. The board folds into three parts; The out-of-square portion of the chessboard containing the chess pieces is stacked on top of one half of the chessboard proper, and the other half of the chessboard is stacked on top of it (on top of the chess pieces). If the section holding the chess pieces had a stronger magnet on the outside, that would help keep it closed. However, because of its size, it's so easy to hide anywhere, so I don't see a problem opening it when traveling. Also, I'm more concerned with keeping the chess pieces in place, the size of the whole, and how difficult or easy it is to move the pieces during play. With that in mind, I would 100% recommend this chess game.
