Customer Reviews
Bob from St. Louis  Great feel and weight. I truly enjoy playing this set. Jason from Old Bridge  beautiful tall slender great size & weight had to soften the edges on queen rook & knight for speed chess they are exactly what i wanted perfect price Khaled from Kuwait  Unbiased review: The set is very heavy, sturdy, large and attractive. They are not easily knocked to their sides because of their added weights. However, the felts do come off (not easily as another reviewer stated) and on occasion, the weights inside the pieces come loose (sometimes fall out, however this is rare). They could be a problem if you like to play blitz and you're not used to heavy pieces. But even with that, I still recommend these pieces. Once you get used to them, all other (unweighted) pieces will feel weak and unworthy for playing with. In fact, I prefer to play with these during blitz (A few friends don't like the heavy feel. They say the pieces shouldn't be used for blitz). Also, It makes it more dramatic when you smash down a heavy piece on the table. Final Verdict and at this price, you'd be nuts to let this pass through your fingers. Steve from Brooklyn, NY  These pieces are mediocre. My biggest problem is that they are a little too large to be used with a standard vinyl board and too heavy to carry around. They have a more premium feel than some of the standard sets but they lack versatility - they are too heavy for blitz! Also, the felt falls off easily. Read all Reviews
