5/5 Jem11 'Bought for my 5 yr old and he absolutely loves it! Great value for money'
5/5 Laus123 'My son recently started playing chess at school so we brought this set for home. It also doubles up as a draughts set and comes with the necessary counters. For £8 the quality is brilliant, the only thing that would be helpful is including a set of instructions for both games.'
4/5 CH 'Great value for two games in one, and lovely that it is wooden. The pieces are fiddly though, being so small. I know they're for kids, but it almost makes it harder because their fine motor skills are still being developed, so smaller pieces aren't necessarily a good thing.'
5/5 FiFi26 'The game board is of high quality and immaculate design'
5/5 Kshipra 'Excellent product.Kids enjoying it.'
5/5 EazyG 'Great portable chess board with the bonus of being able to play checkers on it. Excellent quality for the price'

5/5 Lora 'Well made and a decent price compared to other chess sets'
4/5 Rozboz 'The ideal size for transporting around but the pieces may be a little too small for young players. A nice wooden board which would have been 5*s if it was foldable and had a travel carry case.'
4/5 Inny 'Wooden chess board, draughts are weightless and small, little to no major art work.'
5/5 null 'Overwhelmingly happy that I bought this Chad Valley Wooden Chess and Draughts Board Game, the quality was out of this world and will probably out live me!

5/5 Arabab 'Grandsons love this makes then think.'
5/5 Charlie 'Nice chess and draughts set for the price.'
4/5 Maximum Max 'Very good value. Board is nicely made and a good size (not large / not small). Chess pieces and draughts are made of plastic and very smooth, so that it's easy to spill them across the board when making a move.'
5/5 Seba 'purchased a month ago, very good quality, everything is in perfect order. I recommend'
4/5 Martin 'The best quality part of this chess set is the board. The pieces feel a bit cheap and have no felt at the bottom to dampen noise and there isn’t much definition to them. Great for a basic chess/draughts board but you’ll probably have to spend a bit more to get better quality. Would only recommend if you’re on a budget.'

5/5 H 'Bought it to play alongside my electronic chess game. Perfect.'
