Wegiel Ambassador Chess Set - 4.5 in. King Review

I purchased this as a 5th anniversary present (wood) for my husband. He was thrilled with the gift, and we were both pleasantly surprised by the quality and detail of the chess board, which appears to be hand-burned with decorative flourishes in addition to the very nice inlays for the squares. It comes with letters and numbers inlaid as well, and really looks very lovely on the coffee table where it has been placed since it was received last month. Furthermore, my three year old has played with it non-stop, and it has held up (pieces included, which I was worried about) remarkably well to the rough play of a young child. I only have two small complaints about this product, and they are that the flimsy plastic insert that holds the chess pieces when the board is folded away is barely flocked and really doesn't feel like it will last a year without cracking and tearing, so I wish they had made it thicker and stronger and out of a nicer material. The second regret is that the pieces themselves, while nicely carved and very detailed, are remarkably light and tend to skid around the board much easier than I would wish. I knew they weren't weighted when I purchased the board, but I can't help regretting it now that I've actually played with it a bit. Nevertheless, I think I would still make this purchase if I had it to do over again, and maybe someday I will invest in some of those outrageously expensive Staunton, Weighted Tournament Chess Pieces w/ Wood Box to replace these. I therefore tentatively recommend this very attractive product.
