Real Wood Felt: The backgammon board features its multiple real wood veneer combination with a smooth touch, unique and very antique. Hand-cut Points: The points are hand-cut and inlaid into the playing field to form a precision fit, so checkers can easily glide from point to point.

Portable Design: The case measures 18.6 x 14.9 x 1.3 inches when open, while 14.9 x 9.2 x 2.5 inches when folded, perfect for travel.

Gorgeous, well designed backgammon set

I've been looking for a backgammon set for awhile now but the ones I'd found up to now were just too cheap looking. My tastes in this area are somewhat refined due to my experience with chess, where the sky is the limit as far as quality and price. Backgammon was different--everything I had found had cheesy plastic checkers, a low quality board and just felt shabby. At the same time, I wanted something that was fairly portable so that I could travel with it.That was until I happened upon this…

Pros
  • very nice
Cons
  • No option to play with more than two players

Beautiful backgammon set

I've always wanted a beautiful backgammon set. The one I play one is a very old leather travel set that is charming in its own way, but it does not compare to the full-size sets and certainly not to this one. This is gorgeous, gorgeous. Open-on-the-coffee-table worthy gorgeous.I've seen sets like this costing two to three times as much, so I was kind of expecting that the quality might not be quite what it looked like in the photos, but it is. This set is really beautiful - the kind that you…

Pros
  • 6 years and up
Cons
  • Not suitable for individuals with mobility or dexterity issues

Beautiful backgammon

This is a beautiful backgammon play set, well crafted game board, great attention to detail on the board as well as the game pieces and dice sets. The pieces are wooden and handle nicely, can also be used as checkers pieces, this is an amazing game set that our family loves playing together. It’s a fun game that can be learned by everyone. Having such a quality game set really enhanced the game and competitive nature of players. Everyone has remarked on the beauty of the set. A little pricey…

Pros
  • Beautiful quality board! Something to leave out on display!
Cons
  • May require more maintenance than other sets

Great board BUT chips too light

I am an avid backgammon player. The quality of the board is five stars. I gave a four-star review because the wooden chips or extremely lightweight. The dice are also way too big. I have to use dice from another set. When you roll if you hit any of the chips they actually slide and can easily move off their position. Heavier chips and I would give 5 out of 5

Pros
  • Made from high-quality, durable wood for long-lasting use
Cons
  • Not suitable for individuals with allergies to wood

NOT Real Wood good for me

I’m confused by all the glowing reviews of the beautiful "wood” used. The reason this set is so light is because it’s NOT REAL WOOD. The checkers are wood, but that’s all. The playing surface looks to be a printed vinyl/pvc material. Tap on the case and it sounds hollow. It is NOT worth $60! It’s embarrassing because I bought this as a gift and had it shipped directly to the recipient - thinking I was sending a nice classy gift - only to find out later that it’s plastic. Sadly, Revain has…

Pros
  • The pieces are light and and slide, but the board is very nice.
Cons
  • Limited customization options

Backgammon is a fun game which is also surprisingly difficult to master-- you can play it at somany different levels.This folding wooden kit is big enough (I don't like the tiny boards and miniscule pieces) but still compact enough to take wherever you like or pack in a suitcase. The board has a nice suede draw string pouch around it and there is another matching smaller pouch for the pieces. There are two carved wood cups and dice. The whole thing can be opened and ready to play in a…

Pros
  • Beautiful inlaid wood design. Quality and class combined.Nice price for this quality.
Cons
  • Limited portability due to its size and weight

Craftsmanship best in my review

Loved the craftsmanship of this backgammon set. It was a perfect gift for my husband in its masculine design & colors. Would definitely purchase again.

Pros
  • Ideal Gift: From the type of wood, to the accessories that complement the colours of the playing surface and points, each component of Woodronic backgammon board helps act as a unique playing board, and also a great gift for players.
Cons
  • Wooden surface may not be ideal for sliding the pieces

Good . however in my review

Coming from Egyptian background we are used to much bigger pieces than this, the included pieces are 1 inch in diameter and could hardly stack them vertically ( sets of 5's)Build quality and look is good though so if you are ok with small pieces and big dice go for it

Pros
  • Complete Accessories: 2 sets of 25 mm wood checkers, 2 sets of 15 mm precision dices, 1 doubling cube, and 2 black leather dice cups made to fit in the special compartment.
Cons
  • Limitation to one type of game

Made it right for my opinion

I had an initial problem with the set. One missing piece and one damaged piece. I contacted them and they made it right. Once contact was made with them, they were very responsive. Replacement pieces were sent along with some extras. Seems like a good company and the product is well made.

Pros
  • Ideal for collectors of board games
Cons
  • Pieces may need to be sanded down to prevent snagging on the board

Backgammon - my new review

Very good size game board and wooden checkers are good. It would have been better if I could have won the first game. Thanks for attention!

Pros
  • Just what I was looking for. Beautiful inlayed wood.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for outdoor use

Perfect Christmas gift!

OMG! Received this backgammon set today and I have to say this is gorgeous. I love the that there’s no bracket/attachments for opening and locking it. It is so well made I can’t wait to give this as a Christmas gift to a family member.I rarely rate items, but this one is way better than expected. I absolutely recommend this for anyone considering spending a few extra dollars, you’ll be glad you did.Cheryl

Pros
  • Very nice set
Cons
  • Pieces can be easily knocked over

Beautiful backgammon set!

I was shopping around for a tavla board but decided to get this set because it included 2 sets of dice, 2 dice cups, and a doubling cube. I like the look of the darker board. I'm especially impressed by the look and textured exterior of the board when closed. It's my favorite, so far, of all the backgammon sets I own!

Pros
  • Nice quality and great for traveling or simple use. An eye-catcher on a corner living room table.
Cons
  • May not be as visually appealing as other sets

Beautiful game pieces!

This wooden backgammon game board is gorgeous! The wooden pieces look and feel nice and the dice look like marble. The instructions were kind of hard for us to understand though so we ended up having to watch a how to play video on YouTube. Overall we had fun playing this game and it is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes!

Pros
  • this board is beautiful and shows quality craftsmanship.
Cons
  • Wood can warp after prolonged use

Great Quality! on my review.

Everything is high quality made only downside is the places where you store the peices after use dont have enough room to store the last peice of each players peices so you have to store them outside of it

Pros
  • Real Wood Felt: The backgammon board features its multiple real wood veneer combination with a smooth touch, unique and very antique.
Cons
  • May require assembly before use

I'd buy it again: my feedback

Let me just say I did not expect much for the priceThe board is nice I enjoy it and the travel size is a bonus May take up too much space for storage.

Pros
  • This is so beautiful and well made! The woodwork is just gorgeous.
Cons
  • May take up too much space for storage
