The board fell apart
The pieces are ok, smaller and lighter than the ones used in tournaments. The board was flimsy and fell apart immediately. No happy.

I’ve been using this set for over six months now, its an amazing chess set that we use nearly every day! The pieces feel strong, durable, well-weighted, and nicely balanced. The folding board, though made of cardboard, is holding up really well and offers great contrast that makes the pieces easy to see, and it also has notations which is handy. The only downside with this set is that it comes with only one set of queens. It would be great if DGT included extra queens or made them available for purchase. I also tried the similar World Chess Academy set, but the DGT set is definitely the better of the two.

Un ajedrez muy agradable para jugar rapidas y con piezas con buen peso y una base ancha , un placer deslizar las piezas por el tablero, el tablero es mio , me llego en la caja uno de color marrón pero prefiere este mio de plástico que coincide con el color de las pie!as . Por poner algo negativo diria el tamaño de los peones algo pequeños pero te adaptas rápidamente jugando con este set , que se supone es una réplica del juego usado en el mindial de 1972 entre Fisher y Spasski. Como jugador federado y jugador de torneos sin duda recomiendo este set de ajedrez para incluso usar con el tablero incluido !

Je l'ai acheté parce qu'il était utilisé au concours d'échec du Festival de Cannes en 2024. Je ne sais pas si c'est un jour officiel mais les pièces sont vraiment parfaites il est parfaitement rangé et on peut s'en servir n'importe où. C'est un cadeau formidable pour Noël si jamais vous voulez faire un cadeau qui soit d'un excellent rapport qualité-prix. Bien sûr il faut que la personne aime les échecs (je parle du jeu, ahahaha).
