Customers are mixed about the stickiness of the board game. Some mention that the pieces stick to the board pretty well, but will fall off if shook, the storage area is padded so each piece stays in place, and they don't easily fall out. Others say that the piece does not stick to he board as described and the board was scratched, and some of the pieces do not stay on with the magnet as they should. The pieces are completely random, making pieces occasionally stick together.

Really nice little travel chess set for the price
Great for travel. It’s very compact and the wood seems like it’s of nice quality. Comes with a nice little bag as well. Looking forward bringing it with me whenever I go somewhere. Magnets seem to work well also. For the price it’s a really good deal. My only suggestion would be to put the letters and numbers on it, but that’s not really a big deal.

5.0 out of 5 stars Really nice set! Perfect size, good craftsmanship.
Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2022
(2022) this is a nice set, i appear to have received something different from other buyers since they had a clasp shut and mine is a magnet shut. An improvement in my opinion, especially because the magnet clasp does not open even with aggressive shaking, and the slots for the pieces are so secure I have no doubt that they would stay put even if the board somehow opened. For me the board is level, has a good weight for its size. Extremely impressive quality given the price. The pieces are wood but appear to be intricate and well crafted which large boards sometimes cant even achieve. The board itself has no problems as far as I can tell. Im really impressed with the quality. Its smooth and varnished (aka satin finish seal), the staining is even, the pieces are all well done. Really just shocking (in a good way) for the price.

I nearly took a star off because the magnet on the king pieces does not stick quite as well. It wont be a problem for me but can be fixed by simply replacing the magnet or using a big magnet to charge the little one. Additionally the pieces sometimes catch on each other’s magnets so you may just need to be prepared for that to happen occasionally, its not a huge deal. In general they are all are not strong enough to turn the board fully upside down, but it can be tilted a fair amount. The king is the only piece that will not stay. Then again, I’m not playing chess upside down and just need them to not side around too much in bed. And the magnets seem to be strong enough for that purpose. So given the impressive and surprising quality of the board, and my overall satisfaction I will award this five stars. If you are going to play chess upside down maybe look elsewhere.

It is small enough to fit in a purse, perhaps even a pocket for a man. I can keep this easily in my inner jacket pocket. Since there are magnets on the pieces they don't seem so light to be uncomfortable to play with. If you are looking for something super discrete you may want a 5” version, or you could just get lichess for your phone.

It came securely packaged, however it did not include the felt bag to protect it from scratches. There was a package of silica that produced an ungodly smell, but it subsided quickly. No big deal to me. I may see about getting a felt bag to carry so the pretty varnish does not get scratched up.

If you want it I would say go ahead and get it. You really cant go wrong :)

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 21, 2023
Comes in a lovely satin case to protect the wood. All pieces for great into the inside of the board and it a great size for travelling.
We did get stopped at security because of the mini magnets in the pieces but we got through onto the plane fine. It passed a great amount of flight time.
It’s compact tidy and sturdy. A great board for beginner to experienced players.

Nice gift or stocking filler.
