Broken pieces, bad customer service
I ordered this and decided to cancel my order literally 15-20 minutes after I placed my order because I no longer needed these.However, the order was pending cancellation for almost a week. I messaged amazon about it but they told me to contact the seller since its fulfilled by a third party. So I did. They said they've already dispatched it so unable to cancel. That is a pathetic excuse because they had a week to cancel it.Anyway now that I have received the product, it came with a broken queen and missing pawn.If you look at the images I posted you can see the low quality of the plastic. It's hollow and the surface has a lot of imperfections and scratches. And pretty much every piece has this.I would not recommend this low quality product, especially due to the bad customer service.I will be requesting a full refund.

This is a great set for the price.
This is a great set for the price. It's pretty much as advertised. The style is a classic Staunton design with modest detailing. The look is clean and simple. Details come out much better in molded plastic than they do in carved wood or stone pieces in my opinion. The plastic is well molded and seems plenty strong. There are mold lines evident but hey, these are molded pieces. And the price is under $20.As for size and heft, I like them. The size makes them easy to grab and move but they aren't so big they look ridiculous set up on a coffee table. The triple weighted bases do a really nice job of keeping everything upright in the event of a little bump to the board and the weight just feels nice in my hand.The colors are nice traditional choices. The black is well.....black. The white is a nice muted off white like an old piece of ivory that's yellowed slightly. They look nice if you leave the board set up on a coffee table.I don't know why anyone would spend more for a set of chess pieces. As I said before, wood and stone sacrifices detail. Those materials just can't be carved to the level of detail that plastic can be molded to. And plastic is a lot more durable. And frankly, I'm not a fan of the cast metal pieces commemorating everything from Egypt to Rome to the Civil War to Dragons and Werewolves. Nah, this is what a chess set is to me, not some goofy werewolf.

Attention à la taille
Les pièces ont très belles pour le prix mais ne faisaient pas du tout la taille indiquée (elles sont plus grandes, 4cm fe diamètre pour le roi, ça ne tenait pas sur mon échiquier, j'ai du les renvoyer)

Envío excelente
En buen estado, y tamaño ideal, aunque el peso esperaba un triple peso con más peso.
