GREAT BEGINNER'S CHESS SET! Posted 28 March 2006
This chess set is very well made for the price. The wood pieces are detailed enough for beginners to easily identify, and have felt bases. The board is a hinged case that stores the pieces when not in use. It's lightweight and portable; an excellent starter set for kids. It also includes a basic instruction sheet. I purchased it for a nine-year old grandson who just started playing and loves that it fits in his backpack. I'm very pleased with this purchase!
