(More customer reviews)You can play mahjong with this set of tiles. It's a complete set (144 tiles + 4 spares + 4 jokers). It has Western indices (numbers/letters) in the corners. It even includes the dice, wind indicators, and betting sticks you need to play. There's nothing wrong with it functionally.
However, be warned: the tiles look cheap.
The inking is not very precise so most of the tiles look 'blurry' where the ink overruns the engraving (looks like someone 'colored outside the lines'). And some of the tiles have ink smears on them.
Personally this bothers me a lot. They look so low-quality.
So... if you need 'something, anything' to play mahjong with, this set is fine. Or if you already have a nice set and are looking for a cheap second set. But I would not give this set to someone as a gift, and it's nothing you'd want to show off to friends.
Other info:
There is a rulebook included, but it is written in very poor English and is almost impossible to understand. Don't use it if you're new and trying to learn.
The tiles are 1 3/16 x 7/8 x 1/2 inches. The backs are made of bamboo, the fronts are white (plastic or bone, I think). The tiles are lighter (less dense) than ones that are made of all plastic.
