Beautiful Chess set

I love this GALANT Chess set. The board and pieces are beautiful and large, the way I like it. My son is seeing impaired and I think this set will work just fine for him. I had an issue with one of the pieces and you all were very quick to take care and send me a new piece.

Nice board

Nice board. Wish pieces were a little heavier, and that the bishop and queen were not so similar. Aside from that nitpick, I highly recommend this board.

Nor for the picky player

Packaged well for delivery. A large chess set with self storage. For this price I was disappointed that the over sized pieces are not weighted nor have a finish for a better hand feel. Hoping my son won't be too disappointed this Christmas. I'd be hesitant to recommend.

Great Chess Set

I love this chess set. I love that the pieces are stored safely inside the board. The board is a good size; maybe a bit big for some people, but I think it's just about right. The pieces are nice and feel good and solid in your hands. We are pleased with the purchase!

Impressive chess set

This is a large chess set and fits those that admire sets like this. The pieces are done to a high quality level and very impressive...I like it! There is a slight finishing smell on the board, but it's a nice storage box/board and the small amount of lacquer smell doesn't last long out of the box. I ESPECIALLY was impressed with how the chess set was packed and shipped. Good fit of the shipping box and care taken in the packaging. That's worth a positive comment and mentioning. The only thing I would say I'd prefer is the chess pieces could have a bit more weight to them since they are longer and more slender than regular sized pieces. However, I like the set, I'm happy I purchased it, and I wouldn't hesitate recommending this set to anyone else. Good job and "atta-boy" on your excellent customer service.
