. for me and my two sons due to the good customer response and the very low price

due to the good customer response and the very low price I ordered 3 of these magnetic chess pieces for me and my two sons. They were delivered quickly and securely packaged within 10 days as expected. I am amazed by the quality of the collapsible chess board which locks securely and has ample space to store the chess pieces, as well as the quality of the chess pieces themselves which are well detailed and made from hard plastic rather than the rough cut pieces of wood which I found on this one price feared. All parts for the "black" (actually a nice dark brown) and for the white figures were included in the kit for all three sets and stowed separately in elegant fabric and cord bags. The bases of all pieces were beautifully covered with thin felt that glided smoothly over the smooth surface of the chessboard. The magnetism at the base of each of the pieces is sufficient to hold the pieces in place against the pushing movements of the chessboard, yet this magnetism is light enough to make it easier to move the pieces from square to square by hand without lifting them or disturbing the board. chessboard. The folding chessboard itself is made of durable plastic with imitation wood. When open, it's large enough to comfortably play chess on the board, and when folded, it's a handy size to carry in a briefcase or carry-on. I have large chess boards and standard sized chess pieces, but I bought this smaller magnet set so I can play with it on my knees while sitting in bed and reenact some of the chess games some grandmasters have played for this purpose. This little chess game works great! A small consideration is that even for people with big hands and fat fingers the pieces may be a little smaller than they would like, although I'm fine with the piece sizes for this small set and understand that they had to remain a certain size. so that the magnetism ensures that the pieces are not shifted or knocked over when the chessboard is bumped or hit. I suspect this little magnetic chess set would also work well between two players in a moving vehicle. Overall I am delighted with the quality and small size of this magnetic chess set for comfortable play in environments where the chessboard may be moved unintentionally and in my opinion the quality of this set would make it a worthwhile purchase. double the price and I have no hesitation in recommending this set and the ColorGo suppliers for their reliability to anyone looking for a chess set this small for the purposes I have described. 16.
