The magnetic checker pieces and board are great. Comes in a tin box so it is secure for travel or just keeping with other games in the closet. It's a perfect checker board game.

The board is not flimsy despite it being card board but it has a clever folding design. It is slim and compact but large enough to play on. It’s a nice travel size and an easy on the go game. Portable, nicely designed.

This is because it was so cheaply made, not because it had been used or damaged in shipping. It is total garbage and i can't get a refund for it either!

The board is foldable and the pieces fit into the slots under the board. The elastic loops inside for the pieces are loose enough so it's easy to get the pieces in and out. The board folds nicely into a box that holds the pieces inside snug.

The pieces have the right shape (similar to staunton) and are of good size and construction. None of my pieces were crooked or oddly shaped as mentioned in some of the other reviews. But this is great and the pieces are nicely crafted.

The ranks and files are stamped with labels for reference. The chess notation on the board definitely helps those who know it when trying to get back into the hobby. The extra queens and markings on the chess board are a great help.

Shape of the bottom of pieces make them imbalanced. The tactile sensation is that of the low end brown hollow interior doors. The chess board folds in half but the lines weren't exact.

Purchased this board only because of fast delivery promised. Really not a good purchase.
