I’m really enjoying the Millennium King Performance. I like the old school style boards from the 80’s and this is perfect and the playing strength is much stronger than those days!

Great Chess Computer

I researched buying a chess computer and The King Performance seemed like the best deal for the money. The reviews on YouTube were all very favorable. I contemplated purchasing the Mephisto Phoenix but could not reconcile spending four times the amount of what I paid for The King. Moreover, there was never any mention of whether Mephisto could play Chess 960 or whether it was part of the chess engine programing.
I am very happy with the King. I tried Chess 960 and have come to really like that version of the game. In fact, I have noticed that my classical chess skills have improved by playing 960.
The King Performance is running a very good chess engine that can be enjoyed by anyone including children. I like Millennium’s merger of the technological with the organic. It is a well put together computer running the Arm 7 M processor encased in a wooden frame with wooden pieces. In my opinion, it was worth spending a little more for the King Performance than buying the The King Competition; wood is nicer than plastic.
Finally, I would like to thank Chess House for putting up with my impatience regarding shipment. Due to no fault from Chess House, my insistence that my computer should be shipped to my post office box resulted in SmartPost getting involved in the shipment. According to the tracking, my package arrived in Houston within three days only to sit in some warehouse for two weeks. My anticipation was well worth it.
