Medieval Times III Theme Chessmen Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Bought these chess pieces for my boyfriend for Christmas and he just loved them. If you're going to play chess, you have to have a medieval chess set. The only thing that keeps happening is that they get knocked over easily so I think the bases should be heavier. The workmanship is great but from behind, you can get the bishops mixed up with the pawns so I took a permanent marker and painted the back of the bishops head (helmet) black and it didn't take away from the painting that already exists. This was the perfect gift this year!

Value Triple Weighted Plastic Chess Set in Black & Ivory - 4 inch King Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The set was what I expected. The piece designs are good. Solid pieces. My only negative is the "crown" of the queen is slightly sharp. If you want bigger pieces this is a solid choice.
If you do get this you will need a board with 2 1/4 sqares.

The Muppet Show Deluxe Collector's Chess Set Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)OK, let's be honest. We're dealing with a chess set here. There is very little that you can do to mess it up. Some sets are fancier, but that's not what the manufacturers were going for here. Those of us who grew up with Sesame Street and the Muppets will love the nostalgic fun of playing chess with our favorite characters as the pieces. Of course, purists may scoff, but that's them taking themselves a bit too seriously. The only possible difficulty for some people might be remembering which character is what. Is the Swedish Chef a bishop or a rook? But that just means learning one or two associations (the knights are on horses, so no problem there), and you could say the same for sets costing hundreds of dollars (e.g., is Legalos a bishop or knight in the Lord of the Rings sets?).

Excalibur World Chess Hall of Fame Collector's Edition Classic Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this chess set for my son for Christmas. It is a very nice set but the board is large. I measured the board and is is 22 inches. It did not give the board dimensions in the description so I thought it would be good to know. At first my son was skeptical of the burgundy pieces but they grew on him and now he thinks they are unique. The pieces are very nice.Excalibur World Chess Hall of Fame Collector's Edition Classic

Dragon And Knight Medieval Chess Board Game Set Decor Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This chess set was all that I expected and more, what's more important is that my boyfriend that collects Dragons totally went bonkers over it when he seen it. I purchased this for his 40th birthday, and he has played it every night since he got it. I was pleasantly pleased with the detail work on this piece. Just wish the board and pieces were a little larger but other than that it is and was an awesome birthday gift, and well worth the money.

When the board and pieces are not in use, this dramatic "castle" sculpture does double duty as a showpiece to display with pride. Polyresin. 11 1/4" diameter x 12" high

Giant Indoor Outdoor Chess Set 16 Inch Kings Big Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Wow! I purchased this set so that my young children could learn about chess in a fun way. The pieces are GREAT for toddlers and preschoolers to handle and "become" the game of chess. My children learned quickly the names of each piece and how the move along the board.
They are great (no small pieces for the mouth) for learning and interacting with chess and take it from "boring" to exciting. I would invest again in this set, as I see it can continue to be fun as my children get older. The larger than life pieces help make the game come alive for me as well.

Drueke 907.00 Roll Up Chess Board with 3 3/4-Inch Chessmen Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Drueke is a great name in chess and cribbage gear, so I bought this sight-unseen online. I was most disappointed. The mousepad style floppy board was great. The carrying bag was great. The style of the pieces was good. The problem was that the weights are not all glued in very well. There were a few that rattled around. I returned it and bought the Plastic Collectors set from House of Staunton. I'll never go back. The detail, finish, and build quality are all superb. I have other Drueke chess sets and was not disappointed. They really need to go back to their old (high) stnadards of quality control. Apparently, this is what happens when you pack up and move manufacturing to China...

Dinosaur Checkers Board Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)When I learned my friend's 5 yr. old had just learned chess, I decided to search for a chess set. Since I knew he loved dinosaurs, I thought combining the two would be a winner. The set is not large, the board is only about 11" square, but it was a perfect size for a youngster. His mom said he literally couldn't wait to play his first game the day it arrived. Nice way to make learning both educational and fun!

Science Wiz Chess Once A Pawn A Time Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I loooove this set! It is perfect for beginners, kids AND adults! The instructions booklets are hilarious and so easy to comprehend. Any literate child could teach him or herself how to play the game in an hour or two. The chess pieces are made of a high quality durable plastic, not your typical made in China flimsy stuff (even though they are still made in China) . They even come with a velvet bag for safe keeping. My 6 year old could play with this all day long, and he is not even a nerdy indoor kind of kid. I cannot say enough great things about this and would highly recommend giving it as a gift to ANYBODY 6 or over.
