4.0 out of 5 stars Surprisingly good quality
It’s larger than I thought with some pleasant pseudo engraved (actually embossed) wavy lines design decorations on three quarters of the case sides. A warm, very soft wood box and wood pieces though would be nicer if it were not Balsa wood and the unfinished surface will pick up dirt over time so a varnished play surface would help here. Definitely not pine.There is, of course, nothing to stop you getting a little tin of yacht varnish and sealing the wood on the play surface. Until you do manage to get a tin of varnish, I keep the box in a plastic bag to stop itgetting dirty. It’s quite light and they’re not fragile. It’s not going to cope with a lot of knocks or play from children, children are always better with a standard club chest with weighted plastic pieces. You can get these from either Bolo or the London chess shop it comes with a rollup board.Anyhow, the box is nicely made a little late weight and in substantial and I would say the pieces are a little too small for the squares, but it’s only marginal the box on the play surface has useful coordinates around the edge.Inside the box has quadruple form filling, that is to say each side of the holiday box has a phone backing with another sheet of form in front of it that has cut outs for the chest pieces, whether you want to keep the parts and just have the pieces around inside With just one form sheet each side for speed is up to you but eventually I would save it. The form is a type that will eventually degrade.Better portable, chess set like this are made of hardwood varnished box, varnished, weighted pieces, sometimes magnetic and have felt box lining.It’s not bad. A bit insubstantial, but I’d recommend something from Jaques of London and spending a little bit more for a box and weighted pieces.And unweighted pieces are fine, but the weighted ones have a satisfying quality to play with, and you’ll know what I mean soon as you compare the feel of pieces in the hand.Is it worth the price? Well it might be inflation, I don’t know, but I don’t think so. maybe you just don’t get much for your money these days I don’t know but five or 10 years ago you’d get something like this that was much more satisfying to use and was considerably more substantial.
5.0 out of 5 stars Nice portable board
Good for travel - not too big but also not tiny so feels like a normal game.
5.0 out of 5 stars Cheap and Cheerful but Perfect
The boy is taking it to school and playing his mates every lunchtime. Magnetic aspect isn’t very strong but definitely helps with the clumsy hands of the early teens. Good value
3.0 out of 5 stars It's OK...
The board itself is fine and the pieces are fairly neat once you remove the excess felt from the bases that havent been cut properly. The overall feel is a bit cheap, flimsey wood and the engraving around the edge of the board is inconsistent, with some parts very faded (see photos). For £20 I'd expect a little better quality if I'm honest.
5.0 out of 5 stars Great
Great travel game and good for teaching my child on
5.0 out of 5 stars Looks great, very sturdy
Really great product, looks great and it's very sturdy. Magnetic is a big help if the board gets nudged whilst playing. Will definitely be taking this when we go on camping trips.
Great Product
I recently purchased the Syrace Folding Hand Crafted Wooden Chess Set Chess Board with dimensions of 30 x 30CM from Bolo, and I must say, I am thoroughly impressed. This chess set exudes quality craftsmanship and attention to detail.The wooden board itself is beautifully handcrafted, with intricate detailing on each square. It's not only aesthetically pleasing but also sturdy and durable. The folding design makes it easy to store and carry, making it perfect for on-the-go chess matches.The chess pieces are equally impressive, with each one carved to perfection. They have a nice weight to them, which adds to the overall playing experience. The set includes compartments for piece storage, which is a thoughtful touch.Whether you're a chess enthusiast or a casual player, this Syrace Folding Chess Set is a fantastic choice. It elevates the chess-playing experience to a new level, and the quality is worth every penny. I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a visually appealing, high-quality chess set.
Better than it seems
This chess set is super light, very well crafted, and I am sincerely in love at how organized it is and how well presented it is, it is a little bit smaller than a regular set but it lacks nothing, and is the perfect set for learning and playing on the go.10 out of 10 for me
Scacchiera in legno
Buon prodotto, esteticamente curato. I magneti consentono una buona stabilità dei pezzi durante il gioco.
OK
The media could not be loaded. Finishing of board is absolutely fine. But power of magnet is bit less. Could be better.
Jeu d'échecs pratique pour le voyage.
The media could not be loaded. La finition de l'échiquier est top 👌, il est magnifique, les pièces sont minuscules, mais adaptés au plateau.Je recommande ce produit, le côté magnétique est un peu léger, mais suffisant pour contrer les secousses d'un voyage en train, ou un sol pas de niveau (la plage).
