The chess pieces are meticulously detailed, showcasing a genuine wood color and patterns. The inclusion of robust magnets beneath the pieces ensures their secure placement, even when the board is inverted. The folding case, designed to hold the pieces snugly, securely snaps closed and remains shut until intentionally opened. To prevent any rattling, two drawstring bags are included. Another notable feature is the chess board's algebraic notation on all sides, a rarity in most travel sets.
In comparison to wooden travel chess sets, our plastic variant boasts several advantages. It is weatherproof, eliminating concerns of cracking or warping over time. Furthermore, it is lighter and more durable than its wooden counterparts. The board, made of screen-printed metal, enhances magnetic properties compared to wood surfaces with a metal sheet underneath. Overall, we are confident that this travel chess set offers unbeatable value.
