Pros & Cons
Pros
Pieces are well weighted. Board is considerably larger than the photos make it seem. Very nice hp chess set, albeit overpriced considerably somewhat me thinks.
This is the nicest chess set i have seen! It's so well made. The peices look just like in the movie, it really is a set as beautiful as it is functional. It cuts down on all of that dusting.
Cons
The chess board is flimsy plastic! How could a $400 dollar chess set have such irresponsible flaws? A portion of one of the board feet had also been super glued on. There were two loose screws and a nut rolling around in the box.

Price
I must say it is well worth the price
The price is fairly steep but there are not many options for an hp themed board that isn’t plastic
This is a beautiful chess set but the price is too high
Packaging/appearance
The pieces are in their packaging very tight so you need a lot of care getting them out
Competitiveness
I’m not a hp fan but i love the game of chess
See picturesthe chess board frame is made of metal

I bought a heavy clear plastic sheet sewed it to size and put some stiffeners around the top so that it stays covered but highly visible when not in use

This is both a good and bad thing as bigger is awesomer but it was so big i could barely fit it on the small table i wanted to use the legs of the board stick out from it a bit

I was sorely disappointed by the quality of the board it is nothing more than a piece of paper that has had a chessboard printed on it with a low quality printer at that with a sheet of plexiglass over it and plastic base
Posted by a reviewer on Amazon
For about 25 i went to a tile store and bought a sheet of 2x2 white marble tiles and 2x2 black granite tiles and placed them over the plexiglass to create a much more appealing chessboard
