Yellow Mountain Imports 3-in-1 Travel Magnetic Chess, Checkers, and Backgammon Set - 9.8 Inches - Portable, Folding, and Travel Perfect

OK I ordered this when my husband and I were going on a cruise 3/15/2020. I bought it in case we got stuck on the ship for 20 days or so and were confined to our cabins with someone on the ship getting Covid 19.. Well, the cruise was a no go due to the corona virus and it ended up being cancelled (this was the first day of the ban). I could have sent it back but decided that it was time to start a little games collection in our Florida snowbird home and boy am I glad we did. After a few days of social distancing I opened it up and convinced my husband to relearn how to play backgammon. We have been playing everyday and I find the set to be very convenient. It fits on my little stool that we are using as a table for when we sit outside. The magnetic pieces stay in place very well and the "checkers" come in a plastic case that is reusable and can re resealed. My husband plays chess but I don't so we haven't opened those pieces yet. Wish the chess pieces came with some type of bag to put them back in to once opened but I'm sure a plastic sandwich type ziploc bag would do just fine. Even appreciate the doubling cube for the backgammon set. All in all if you are looking for a small checked, chess, backgammon set this one is great. If you are looking for something not as portable you should check larger sets as this one is on the small size. Well worth the money and I would purchase it again. If you are looking to send a couple a quarantine gift this one is perfect.

A great product for the value. I read some of the negative reviews of this product and i will say they are simply without basis. This is a well made and convenient 3-in-1 chess-checkers-backgammon set. It's a perfect travel set (but not a miniature) with built in storage that closes well for packing. And the magnets are strong enough to be blown by the wind, but not strong enough for being held upside down. I recommend this product.

This set contains chess pieces, and backgammon pieces. As I only use the chess set, that's what I will focus on. The chess pieces have medium-strength magnets in the bases. They are not very heavy, or very large, but this is a portable chess set, not a tabletop heirloom. I use it to plot out moves spelled out in chess books. For that, it is perfectly suitable. One note: the set opening is very stiff at first. Look at which side of the folded board has the hinges and pry open the set on the other side. Even being sure of the correct side, it still caused me some concern I was breaking something to pop it open. But it did open up, and now I leave it open.Update: one of the backgammon panels came off when the chessboard was open. It's not a big deal for me, since I didn't plan on playing backgammon, but if you do, you'll possibly have to reglue one or both panels.

Nice that it folds, it's magnetic, and has three games. Pieces feel cheap quality but what did you expect for the price and portability. Recommend for anyone that wants a travel set or even a home set if you don't mind the lower quality. Magnets seem strong.

Awesome! I ordered this with great trepidation fearing bad casting on the chess pieces and poor quality of board surface and there's nothing wrong it is perfect and all chess pieces are casted perfectly in detail! Therefore I highly recommend it for home or travel!(There's a negative "low quality 6 queens, no rooks" claim made here regarding the issuethat certain pieces are repeated but if you look closely at my set all pieces are perfectly designed and each as individual as an official tournament set and in detailed, exquisite, proportionate scale!) and In my opinion if there's veracity to said claim why no pics to back statement, why not return pkg and why bother going through trouble of modifying pieces when one can can return purchase and get another set?

We ordered this set to have a small, portable package of indoor entertainment when rain is not allowing us to roam outside. The box is small enough to be easy to carry even in the airplane cabin luggage, and its magnetic feature makes sure you don't lose the pieces. It might be a bit small for a big man, but it works like a charm for the woman and kids of this family.Between chess, checkers, and backgammon, both adults and kids had tons of activities, and interactive activities at that (yay, computers have been forgotten for a while!!!). To round up the positives, add to that a super quick delivery (I paid for 2 days shipping, but I got it the next day after I ordered - thank you seller!).

It works as expected. The box was damaged on arrival. Seemed to have something spilled on it.

Bought as a birthday gift for my son in March. He plays all the time and haven't had any issues with it at all. It's still holding strong and I'm assuming it will stay that way for a while.

todo perfecto, excelente producto

Item as described. Magnets are perfect and very strong, no sliding.Really handy storage box when folded up.Eventually we will invest in a fancy marble set but this little set for travel and learning with young kids is fantastic. Actually expected much lesser quality of pieces based on reviews of similar products. Pleasantly surprised, definitely worth the reasonable price.Highly recommend

👌😀👍🏻🥰

Comodo da portare in viaggio

Fiquei surpreendida com a qualidade do produto. Para além de ser possível jogar três jogos diferentes neste conjunto, tanto as peças de xadrez como as das damas são magnéticas. Esperava que o íman fosse mais forte, contudo tem a força suficiente para as peças se manterem na superfície mesmo que se incline o tabuleiro! É também suficientemente compacto para se poder levar em viagem. Recomendável!
