Yellow Mountain ImportsTravel Magnetic Chess Set (25 centimeters) - Folding and Portable Board Game

Great travel set. Good size and quality. The magnets have always worked so far and the storage aspect is great.

This is a super product: well designed and does what it says and I need. The board is a decent size whilst being portable from room to room or on holiday. The pieces are light and attractive in gold and silver and the magnetism holds them in place if I jog the board or have to move it. Having it always on the table will encourage me to practise and keep a game on-going (something I have always wanted to do.) Terrific value and easy on the eye.

A really good piece of chess board. Doesn’t feel plasticky. Pieces don’t feel lightweight either. Perfected for travels and for home. Highly recommended.

This travel chess set is really good. Good design : Its important that chess pieces are well designed from traditional designs, these are. Good colours too. Well made, yes its plastic, but wood would make it too expensive. On first inspection I thought the magnetic attachment was too weak, but it works well. When closed the box clicks shut for security. I made a cardboard tray which fits in the box for when we play on the train - the tray is somewhere to put the taken off pieces. Well done Yellow Mountain. Its dead cheap as well !

My husband & I used the chess set on a long train journey. Great size for travelling and light weight.I think its very good value for money. The pieces are a good size, well made and easy to use. Perfect! Would highly recommend the set.

I got this for my 13 year old who loves chess . He loves it even took it to school to play at break times and the pieces never fell off the board . Great wee buy x

My boys (ages 6 and 7) are mad about chess and compete in tournaments. I bought this set to make my life easier when we go out as it appeared very light.As soon as my boys clapped eyes on it, they fell in love with the colours and the magnetic magic. We have about 6 boards of chess at home but they play on this at least 2ce daily. Perfect for car journeys as no danger of pieces flying all over the place and fits in my bag. At a recent tournament, quite a number of the other kids looked longingly at the board, no doubt wishing they had similar ones to practise on. I had a few enquiries from parents..A word of advice - remember to include a couple or so of extra pieces from other sets before leaving home because if you (or your kids) are anything like my boys, a game is not complete without multiple 'queens' on the board. This set's rooks don't stay overturned.I'm giving durability 4 stars because there's a dent already from a fall, so I expect a few more over time. Also one of the queens magnetism isn't strong enough so just about stays on when jolted.

This is a great chess set. Smaller than a standard chess set but still a good size. The gold and silver pieces instead of black and white is a nice touch. The box shows the gold pieces at the white side of board but I feel silver should be white as the white squares are silver and the black squares are black. The magnetic pieces have felt bases so have a good feel to them.
