Chess Geeks, jeu d'échecs de tournoi en silicone

J’adore!! taille championnat belle pièces lesté un plaisir de jouer avec je recommande ! Note négative pour le tapis en silicone qui accroche toutes les poussières et autre bidule je m’en suis procuré un en carton plastifié a la place et ça rend très bien avec les pièces

Le top… bon je ne joue pas mieux hein

Très franchement ce set d’échecs tient absolument toutes ses promesses. Les pièces sont impressionnantes et conséquentes de part leur poids et leur taille. Je trouve la finition excellente elles sont assez jolies et inspirent la solidité. Le tapis est pliable et ne présente aucune trace de pliure disgracieuse au déballage. Il y a une carte du fabricant qui spécifie qu’il remplacera le tapis ou des pièces abîmées si nécessaire et la procédure est expliquée. Le fabricant affirme être en mesure de corriger les défauts dans les jours suivant l’acquisition. Je n’aurai pas à tester cela. Le poids du set n’est pas négligeable mais l’encombrement est très acceptable et vous pourrez entreposer sans problème la boîte dans un placard ou une étagère. C’est vraiment un jeu confortable et confortable et conforme à ce qu’on peut trouver en club ou en tournoi Je le trouverais presque un peu trop flatteur: Bref si vous avez besoin d’un set d’échecs pour toutes les circonstances ou presque (il n’est pas fait pour un sac à dos ni pour vous suivre en avion et il est fait pour jouer sur une surface plane et régulière, ça ne tient pas sur un coin de table. Je le répète : on trouve ce genre de set en club et tournois ça n’est pas petit même si l’encombrement une fois emballé est plus que raisonnable) À mon humble avis c’est un excellent set et j’aurais vraiment adoré démarrer avec, il y a très longtemps maintenant Lire la suite

Just got the set today and I am extremely pleased with it. The pieces are beautiful and heavily weighted. To me, the knights are one of the most important pieces for the aesthetics of a set and these knights, with the wild manes and open mouths are beautiful. All the other pieces are proportional with tall bishops and substantial rooks. I am always a little disappointed with a set that has nice or even just fair knights but puny rooks. That is not the case with this set. Only a few things could have been better, and they are all very subjective, are just my opinion, definitely are minor, and not enough to give the set anything but five stars. Here goes: the pieces are not shiny, the queen is just a little too tall I think, and the bases on the king and queen are a shade too big, almost filling up most of a 2.25 x 2.25 inch square. Everything else including the other proportions is just great. Even though the pieces have kind of a dull flat finish, there are no discernible seams. The reversible, silicone mat (black and white on one side and green and white on the other) is nice, thick, and foldable. It is a bonus even though I prefer a leather or wood board and may not use the silicone one. I have heard silicone mats need to be cleaned frequently. The Tournament 4X Weighted Pieces "Best Chess Set Ever" may not be the very best ever but it is pretty darn close for sure and was a great buy during Amazon Prime Days. I could not pass it up. I love the set. Lire la suite

Having recently retired, I recently began playing chess again after a 40+ year hiatus, and wanted a board to take travelling and to use outside on a deck or perhaps a picnic table while camping. After much research I chose this set (the XL quad-weighted set), based partly on the positive reviews here. It arrived in just a couple of days. This is every bit the excellent set other reviewers claim it to be. The plastic chess pieces are BIG, well-weighted, felted and molded in very pleasing detail. They are plastic but do not feel plasticky at all. The seams are very subtle, and the pieces, while plastic, feel like substantial, quality pieces in my hand. The white pieces are not white but rather a creamy ivory that is perfect for the white pieces as opposed to a stark and sterile pure white. Each set has its own drawstring pouch for storage. A serviceable little booklet on the fundamentals chess concepts/strategy is included, as well as a curious bag of crafter's googly eyes, which might be nice for kids but I wouldn't mess with the already nice presentation of the pieces by making them goofy. But that's just me. The silicon board (mat) is big, and is reversible (black/white and green/white) - a nice touch - and easy to roll up and store for travel. There are some folds and pinches in the surface that are obvious results of folding the material to fit the smallish box, which I wouldn't recommend, especially for any long period if time. I am currently laying the board flat with some weight on top to try to reduce the blemishes; if this doesn't work I will contact the seller to request a replacement of the mat. The manufacturer seems to already be aware of the potential for this sort of packaging-induced flaw, and does offer explicitly on a card included with the set to make right on any such flaws in the board and also the pieces. As this is my only gripe about the set, I am comfortable reviewing this as 5 stars given the excellent product and good customer service promise. It really IS worth every cent for the overall quality of the set (a much higher quality than my shaky chess game skills right now!). A recommendation to make excellent even better: A larger box or ideally, a tube, to contain the set without having to fold the board. Stuffing all this goodness repeatedly into a small box may eventually compromise the pieces and will compromise the mat. I picked up a $4 UPS 24" mailing tube to store the mat, and may later pick up a more robust plastic poster tube with shoulder strap for about $15. So many chess sets on Amazon, but for a quality outdoor-friendly and waterproof set with pieces you'd be proud to display on ANY board, you won't find as good or better at this price point. Well done, Gaylen Pyle, creator of the set! (and yes, I AM reading that serviceable little manual/strategy guide!). UPDATE: As expected, the seller was quick to process a replacement board, since some of the dings in the silicon mat didn't smooth out. I emailed their warranty people and all they needed was my order info and address and a few pics of the board. Then they promptly emailed me back to let me know my replacement is being shipped, directly from the manufacturer. The new mat was free of pinches or creases and shipped in a tube. Customer service the way it is supposed to be done. Great product, great service. Lire la suite

Parfait

Très beau jeu d'échecs. Lecture du jeu très facile en raison de la taille des pièces et du plateau. Très agréable à jouer grâce au poids des pièces, par ailleurs très bien faites et bien détaillées. J'ai eu un peu peur de constater que l'expédition était confiée à "privé de colis" mais reçu un jour avant la date prévue, rien à dire. Excellent rapport qualité/prix, je recommande.

Parfait pour un débutant…de belles pièces. Pas de problème avec le tapis, il tient bien à plat sur ma table et ne se plie pas. Je recommande !
