Review: Beautiful Chessboard At A Reasonable Price! - This one is a winner! A&A offers an impressive chessboard at an attractive price. I needed a fine quality wood board with positional notation. This terrific board has all the right stuff. I couldn't be more pleased with both the quality and the price of this attractive chessboard. For several years, I have owned an elegant handmade chessboard (without notation) made in Spain by world-renowned Rechapados Ferrer. At the time, it too was affordably priced... but sadly, not today. In researching online chess specialty shops, equivalent boards are priced at least $100-$200 higher. Most of these boards are made in China -- as is this one from A&A. When this board arrived, I carefully inspected all surfaces for imperfections and happily found none. The quality of the materials is very good and the workmanship is excellent. My board measures virtually 19" with 2" squares. It is perfect for my 3.75" matching wood chess pieces. The appearance and fit & finish of this board are superb. The only difference I noticed between this A&A board and my now insanely expensive board from Spain is the side edges are wood veneer rather than a solid wood 2" boarder. Unless you inspected this very closely, I doubt most people would even notice this minor detail. The quality padded zipper case provides excellent protection. I also saved the 4 plastic shipping corners -- they work great and add an additional corner shield. They easily fit on the board within the padded case. For the serious player or for casual games, this lovely chessboard from A&A should put a smile on your face. Highly recommended.
Review: Gorgeous quality chessboard! - The chess board I just treated myself with after 30+ years of flimsy floppy vinyl travel-boards! The chess board is beautiful! VERY WELL MADE! Is packaged with double protection for the corners! Comes with a snug padded case! I love the coloring I chose, and I just got myself larger wood pieces to sit nicely on this gorgeous board! Pics below!👇

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ WOW!!!!
*by S***L on December 1, 2023*

I'm not easily impressed, but this might be the most impressive item that I've purchased in quite some time, from the board itself to the case to the packaging it was sent in. The board is weighty and smooth, very "rich" looking. The case is well made and padded to protect in transit. The packaging box was lined with thick corrugated cardboard on all the sides and corner protectors. The board itself was wrapped in foam padding with another set of corner protectors that slide off and on easily so that they can be used when it's in the case. I'm just overwhelmed with how nice this is. My grandson recently had received a really nice set of pieces but wanted an equally nice board. I was really happy to find this one that did not include the pieces, had the choice of the markings on it or not, and was tournament grade. This looked like it was going to fit the bill, and it more than does. I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing, and anything negative that I've seen also looks to have been order error and not that of the people sending this out. For example, many said there were no markings, but it showed that they ordered without. Many said that they didn't realize that the pieces did not come with it, but simply reading the description would tell you that it did not come with them. In any case, I feel like the grandson will have this for many years to come, if not a lifetime. We are considering putting a thin coat of polyurethane over it, but that is up to him once he receives this.
