Backgammon Attache 18" Review

There seem to be few or no decent game stores anymore, so I was forced to buy a backgammon set online and sight unseen. The reviews for other sets here were very questionable, with some people claiming that their sets were works of art, while others pronounced the same product to be a piece of junk. This set had the most reviews, and generally favorable, so I gave it a shot.

The playing pieces are probably the best part of the set. They are a good weight and size, smooth, and attractive. The dice are OK, but a bit too small. They have rounded corners, which is nice. The points are thin vinyl/plastic, but they are cut evenly and stitched well. They are all laying flat now, but I can't tell if the edges will begin to lift with time. The inside of the case is felt, and appears to be of good quality.

The dice cups are felted on the inside, but are small (hence the small dice, I guess). They also strike me as being somewhat fragile (considering how much they will be handled), and very cheaply glued together. The worst thing of all is the attache case construction. To begin with, the hinges and clasps are cheap-looking, and resemble foil more than metal. The hinges are screwed on somewhat haphazardly, and I can easily imagine the clasps failing sooner rather than later. The handle is small and equally cheap. The case is covered with vinyl which isn't too bad looking. It is padded (perhaps a little too much) on the sides. But, the edges of the case, and the corners in particular, are very, very sharp. I will be very surprised if the vinyl does not wear through and/or tear at those spots relatively soon.

Overall, I would say that this set is disappointing to me at the price I paid. As another reviewer said concerning a different set, I probably would not have bought this had I seen it in a store. Mostly, I think it's just the typical problem that things are not made like they used to be. I don't think the dice cups will last long, and I think the case will either break or be showing its age much too soon.
