Review: Good value chess set. - This is a great chess set. I'm new to chessboards, so I've read the reviews, and this is my personal judgment. My board came without damage. All pieces are good. The inlay that the pieces sit in was not glued down the best, but it still fit snugly (by my own choice, a smidge of double-sided tape now keeps it in place). I've bought the chess and checkers set. They are all magnetized to a good standard, making it travel-friendly despite being a big board. Overall, you are getting a good deal with this set for its quality. Definitely worth the money.
Review: BUY one before they put the price up, this is first class chess set - This is a high quality chess set to please players of all levels. It arrived in a sturdy carboard box, not a single mark or dent. Inside this box was a 2nd box and within this a cardboard slleve. Inside this was the Chess set in the display box customers see on shop shelf. Within this the chess set was wrapped in a felt wrapper. I knew just from the way it was packaged it was going to be a quality chess set. Onmce I removed the chess set from the sleeve i was met with a beautiful smooth set. Maple and Walnut inlay! Each playing piece was well carved. Ea.sy to distinguis each piece. 2 Queens so an extra Queen of each colour. My first thought was this must be the wrong item and I have been sent a chess set worth 3 times than the one I bought. Quite honestly I do nkot know how they can make it at such a low price. Attention to detail is first class. The set comes with each piece having its own moulded home inside the box and comes with a checquers set. I am blown away by the quality. MY Wife and I are keen to start playing chess again. I can fin no negatives, if you want a Chess set as a beginner or an experienced player this is a great choice. Worth every penny.

## Features

- [Unbeatable Design] The chine of a traditional folding board always inevitably bulges, which creates a huge gap on the board centre.A&A original mini bracket supports the board like a table leg, so the board is completely flat when played! And the mini bracket can also provide excellent protection for the table surface from the metal lock of the chess box.
- [Perfect Proportions] A&A is the only chess set on the market that meets the standard proportions of USCF and FIDE. 15 inch board with 1.5 inch Mahogany/maple squares, come with Staunton pieces of 3 inch king height and 1.18 inch base diameter. (King height is twice the checkers, and base diameter is 75 percent of the checkers).
- [Premium Quality] A&A Chess insists on the natural wood color rather than staining to get the product's appearance color, and the first of its kind design of chess pieces tray makes you feel comfortable at the moment of opening the box.
- [Amazing Details] A&A Chess presents you with incredibly good details: the 0.55 inch thick frame with mortise and tenon joints makes the box sturdy; the rounded corners are visual and tactile comfortably; the design of patented support legs gives you a flat board surface when playing chess; the magnetic weighted pieces add stability to your game on the travel.
- [Extended Warranty] We promise to provide you with up to 365 days of product warranty, so you can buy with confidence. We would like to present pieces for free if they are eaten by your doggy.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this suitable for permanent wall hanging?**
A: I assume the question is would the pieces fall off if the board was vertical. Well at best they would slip down. Magnetism is weakened by the layer of wood.

**Q: Where is this set manufactured?**
A: dunno, dont care, it's beautiful

**Q: Is the wood sustainably sourced?**
A: I did ask. It wasn't an issue for me.

**Q: Does it come in a presentation box to store it in, to protect the actual board please? Also, where was it manufactured please?**
A: Dear customer, this product is stored in a display box, the outermost layer is very beautifully packaged, and we will prepare at least three layers of packaging for him to ensure that you receive a brand new unopened and smooth surface chessboard. You can buy with confidence, please feel free to contact us if you have any questions, we will make you 100% satisfied.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Incredible Value For Money!
*by L***E on 31 January 2026*

Incredible value for money. The magnetic pieces are slightly on the lighter side, but non-magnetic weighted pieces are also available if that’s your preference. The wooden pieces are beautifully crafted and feel genuinely premium, far superior to any other board I’ve seen at this price point. As an added bonus, the set includes coordinate stickers, which would cost £8.99 if purchased separately from A&A’s website. It also comes with a comprehensive starter guide covering how each piece moves and a wide range of popular openings, making it ideal for beginners and returning players alike. When unfolded, the board sits perfectly flush with no noticeable join down the centre. I genuinely couldn’t ask for anything better. This chess set feels worth far more than £29.99, and while I wouldn’t be surprised if the price increased, the quality is so good that I wouldn’t begrudge it at all.
