this is a very attractive travel chess set. its surprisingly light which is great for travel but its true what they say added weight makes things feel more valuable so i kinda dislike that about this set.
the magnetic feature is kinda weak. it will help with jostling but not tipping.
but be careful amazon likes to ship this without a box. i even clicked the use a box feature and they didnt so if this is meant to be a surprise plan accordingly.

Product Description
The Patented Mini Bracket
Do you know? Folding chessboards always have an unavoidable Issue.
Ensuring a flat and seamless surface for the chess board. The two board segments appear as one.
When the folding chessboard is laid out flat, the hinge will cause a raised seam at the connecting line, resulting in not only an uneven surface but also a gap in the middle. The quality of the Hinge almost determines the lifespan of the chessboard, and the higher the quality of the hinge, the greater the height difference it produces. A&A's commitment to detail. Always keenly noticing intricacies to perfection. This inconspicuous Mini bracket compensates for the hinge height difference, perfectly resolving this issue.

High quality...from a distance
Overall, this is a beautiful chess board set. The pieces are well made and the soft green fabric on the bottom of the chess piece is a nice touch, as it creates a quieter playing environment rather than wood on wood.There were a few flaws worth noting, which I I've shared with photos.1) After immediately opening the case, the very small spring retainer and it's mating components popped out. I've included a photo of these tiny pieces along with a view of what it is supposed to look like. This ball you see is a retaining ball that helps the locking buckle of the box to stay tight.2) The board does not lay horizontal, it dips in the middle, as shown in the photos. This is mainly due to the feature shown in a close up view that lifts the sides higher than the middle. This feature (2x of them) are used to guide the locking buckles so it aligns properly to lock. This tilt is not enough that the game pieces will slide.3) The patterns of the board on the 2 halves do no line up. The overall over wooden halves seemed to be aligned, just not the patterns. Visually, it screams generic.In summary, this board was higher priced than most. With a higher price, I expected these flaws not to exist. All of these flaws should have been noticed during the product development cycle. It is a shame that the manufacturer let these imperfections out the door. With that being said, I can always use this as an excuse of my poor play. :)
