Review: Lovely, Awesome - Loving the crafting of the pieces. Green felt like storage slots is flimsy plastic which won't last long. - There seems to be many sizes of the same board and pieces and I made sure that I am ordering the 'Ambassador' model for the size of board and pieces I wanted. The Ambassador model comes with really good size chess pieces and the they are really well made, lovey to look. Kids love to play with his chess board. The board itself is very well crafted. Glad to buy this on sale for a very decent price. Chess lovers will enjoy this board and pieces. Pieces too are of a good weight. This item is impressive. The pictures make you feel that green felt to store the pieces are sturdy, but I was surprised that the green housing to store the pieces is a very thin plastic (sort of) material. Its flimsy as well and the item I received had the green felt looking slots for the pieces broken in the corners. I didn't care to return as I feel that even if that breaks I will throw away that and use the folding board for storing the pieces. I must say that I liked the board and did choose to buy as it had nice slots for storing the pieces, which kids love to put back after they are done, but the broken plastic did not make me return the product (or exchange) as the important parts (board and pieces) are so lovely. This is a very strong chessboard, nicely crafted pieces of very good size (some might even say they are really big).
Review: Outstanding wooden chess set - I bought this set nearly 6 years ago, so I could teach my 4 year old daughter how to play chess. Since then, she's not only learned how to play, but her little sister was born and is now learning chess to. I mention this not to brag (well, maybe a little, clever kids! haha) but to emphasize that despite this set now having been used by myself and a couple of rambunctious kids for years now, it's held up terrifically. The board and pieces are all well-made, the board can be easily folded up with the pieces inside to put it away, and the nice, big, wooden board and hand-carved pieces make a nice table-top decoration if you prefer to leave the board out on the table for long stretches of time (which we often do, because it's easier to convince the kids to play a few moves before arguing for screen time when the game is out in the open, ready for a match). The price has gone up a notable amount since my original purchase, but as long as the quality is still as good as the one I got, I'd say it's still worth it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS!!! TOP QUALITY CRAFTSMANSHIP WORK OF ART at BARGAIN PRICE!!!
*by E***1 on June 30, 2024*

Arrived in perfect condition and shipped/arrived on time (2 day). I chose the Ambassador 21" over the Imperator 21" because i like the pawn style better on the Ambassador, and i don't really care about whether the pieces are weighted or not. It's very easy to drill a small hole in bottom (right through the felt) and glue in a small lead cylinder flush with the wood if you want to weight them. Very playable and stable enough for anything except speed chess. My son and i opened it outside, in full sun, because SOME reviews complained about a "strong varnish smell", and i have Multiple Chemical Sensitivity, but THERE WAS NO STRONG SMELL, just a BEAUTIFUL well crafted chess set, A WORK OF ART!!! I have NEVER enjoyed a game of chess so much in all my life, it's like playing chess on the Mona Lisa, or something, such a beautiful board and pieces, will be treasured, much used, much loved, and handed down to my grandson!
