Chess set is gorgeous and sleek for its price. The craftsmanship is really nice. No defects or anything.

Not a good craftsmanship. It just is meh, not very impressive. The real damning quality is the absolute lack thereof.

The pieces are very light and get knocked off very easily while playing. The defective piece was probably milled from the end of the dowel. Also the pieces are magnetic while the board is not which makes little sense.
